800 Black Zara

Helpful Review
Nice dark woody-spicy lightly citrus scent.
People will often like Zara because some of the stuff they make could be (or sometimes *is*) a near-duplicate of a more expensive scent, but finally being in a shopping center with a Zara in it, I tried those popular picks out… and dupes or not, they weren’t for me.
However, 800 Black was different. In a real old-school fashion, bright citrus notes lighten up a darker woody core. And sure, there’s some saffron and tonka, fine. But this one dries down darker, and maybe that’s just the non-vanilla side of a tonka note, or hey, maybe that’s just some synth ingredient. Still, this is a nice one - a classic style, but a little more emphatic on the notes it’s shooting for than your average older scent. Didn’t have a problem with sillage, same with longevity, but it isn’t a monster either.
Worth checking out! Especially for the price. Nice bottle, by the way. Atomizer kinda sucks, but it’s alright.
