Not only one of the best Zara fragrances, but also one of my favorites from the last few years.
I haven't been in the perfume scene for very long like some others, but I can say with certainty that I have already tested a wide range of fragrances - from inexpensive €10 drugstore perfumes to luxurious niche fragrances costing €500 and more.
I am aware that many of these exclusive niche fragrances are not designed for the general public, but to be honest, only a few have truly excited me enough that I wanted to buy them.
Either I found them good but didn't know when I would ever wear them, or I simply didn't like them.
Then I stumbled upon an Instagram Reel. Zara sells a fragrance that has the DNA of Angels Share - a perfume that I personally really like. It became even more interesting when I found out that this fragrance was created by the same perfumer. I knew I had to test it, but not the regular one, rather the Intense version that takes the DNA and makes its own changes.
So I made my way to Zara. One single spray in the air was enough, and I knew immediately: I'm taking this one. The fragrance convinced me right away. It is warm, gourmand, and incredibly inviting, without the typical alcoholic note of the Angels Share DNA that bothered me about the DNA.
Instead, it takes the characteristic DNA and makes it more wearable and suitable for everyday use. For me, it's even a candidate for a signature scent for the cold months.
Anyone who likes the Angels Share DNA but hasn't been completely convinced by it so far should definitely give this fragrance a chance.
We don't even need to talk about the price - it's a Zara fragrance and therefore affordable. But what particularly surprised me was the exceptional longevity and sillage, which is rather atypical for Zara.
On me, it lasts easily eight hours, so I can still perceive it even after work. Other people have also noticed it on me hours after applying.
