I’ve sprayed myself nicely. It’s once again from Dubai Airport to Hong Kong.
Bvlgari has brewed wonderful fragrances with Zahira, Selima, and Lazulia for a juicy €180.
Zahira clearly wins in the new trio. I’ve known it since September 2015. The opening is fresh and exotic. That means I smell pineapple, mango, and passion fruit. You could say it’s a multivitamin in a refined form. It seems like there’s a white, light musk in the background. It develops into a sweet and warm Ylang Ylang-amber blend. Spices? Yes, but not really spicy. More subtly Arabic and honey-gold resinous.
Medium sillage at arm's length, but quite good longevity of now more than 6 hours.
That’s it. A great all-rounder that can be worn anytime. It leans more towards the feminine side for those over 30. I envision a lively woman in a nice apricot dress on the beach in Bali. Pure sex on the beach. Anyone who finds it and loves tropical scents should definitely test it. The bottle is beautiful but tips over quickly due to the heavy cap and small base. A real eye-catcher. So. My flight continues. See you soon, Dubai. Hello, Hong Kong.
I was able to test it too (a few weeks ago): It's amazing. Surprisingly, it ranks the lowest among three orientals in the Parfumo ratings, even though only two commentators clearly favor it. 180 €? I should have known. ;-)
