A Fragrance Full of Love - Tanto Amore by Zara

After testing my first Zara fragrance this week (Somewoody) and being really positively surprised, today I’m sharing my impressions of the second fragrance I purchased called "Tanto Amore". The bottle design is kept simple, with blue tinted glass and a dark wood imitation cap. The shape of the bottle bears a strong resemblance to the bottles from Mancera. The sprayer could be a bit better.

The design conveys a cool, clean, fresh, and aquatic first impression. And the scent reflects this - it clearly belongs to the "blue fragrances" category. I immediately thought of Yves Saint Laurent Y, which may be due to some of the similar notes such as juniper berry, sage, lavender, and vetiver. However, it is by no means a copy; it just has a certain similarity - it is an independent fragrance. In the top notes, the blood orange is very prominent, giving the scent a fruity freshness. The heart note is, as mentioned, similar to YSL Y, and the dry down is slightly woody. There are currently many fragrances on the market that follow this pattern, but Zara does it quite well here, as the interplay of the notes is quite successful. The composition sets itself apart somewhat from other blue fragrances, yet it does not forget the well-known characteristics of such scents: fresh, clean, slightly aquatic, slightly woody - you can't go wrong here, the fragrance can be worn anywhere. I especially think of sun, beach, vacation in Italy, Spain, or the South of France. Or simply spray it on right after showering; you just feel good doing it. The longevity is good for such a fragrance, I get about 7-8 hours, and the sillage is not perfect but in a good range for a freshie.

Conclusion:

Tanto Amore has convinced me. It is a good "blue" fragrance that gives you a nice feeling. The quality and price-performance ratio are top-notch. You can't go wrong here. I might become a Zara fan if the quality of other fragrances from the brand is just as good.

Great review, enjoyed reading it!
The direction of YSL Y? I probably won't warm up to that.
