A Lebanese Delights
Yeah, ZARA Violet Blossom seems inspired by Lebanese delights. Tonight the weather is terrible, and it’s raining outside. It is the first Sunday of autumn, and several months after the purchase, I have thought about wearing it. And it made me feel thrilled inside. I don’t know if it’s because it’s colder, but damn, it makes me feel very comfy and warm. I think the rainy weather brought out the warm notes of this perfume.
The composition of the Violet Blossom perfume is floriental gourmand. When I say oriental floral, I refer to the intense scent of candied sugar combined with the smell of coffee coming from a roaster. It is a fragrance with hints of citrus, fruity, and nutty facets that linger in the air without overpowering. It is a gentle, feminine fragrance, which is at once timid and sophisticated but far from retiring and has some beautifully bright notes. It welcomes me with a blast of bitter and nutty accord; I get the milky vibe of the addictive peeled and roasted almonds. Initially, the citrus note of the tangerine prevents this scent from being too heavy, but when it dries, you get this delicious aroma that settles on your skin, and you feel it. There is also a fruity accord, and I would bet the top features a sweet, sparkling, and succulent pear.
In the heart, the essence of bitter almonds gets stronger, balanced by a mellow cherry blossom. These notes assembled reveal precious and greedy facets. That delicious aroma encounters a lemony magnolia, and the outcome turns out creamy, smooth, velvety. The cherry blossom note is the main one, but it soon gets replaced by powdery, powdery almonds.
The taste of the tonka bean strongly links to its perfume. Indeed, bouquets, I should say since the tonka bean has many at the same time. I notice the aromas of vanilla, cherry, almond, and something spicy, a bit like cinnamon. When served cold, the flavor is like vanilla caramel with dark honey. When hot, it shifts to spiced vanilla. The tonka bean here is the queen of the dry down. The nutty nuance still lingers around and leaves a final bitter trail while a tad of patchouli reinforces the ultimate signature. There is a soft redolence of creamy woods, the same buttery accord characteristic of the cashmeran molecule, which rounds off the scent.
This fragrance is highly opulent and highly sensual. I’ve been inside for three hours, and here and there, I take clouds of my perfume. Perhaps, because of the subtlety of its tones, Violet Blossom doesn’t last long. A single application will last about 4 hours at full strength, after which it fades, but traces of the perfume remain for around 8 hours, making it a perfect fragrance for your leisure evening and night. It’s charming, and in this one, Zara’s fleeting longevity comes in handy because it would be choking if this stayed on like regular gourmands. Sillage and projection are good but not too loud or obnoxious. If you’re a fan of sweet-smelling scents that have a natural musky base—then this fragrance is for you. I’m sure you’ll love it as much as I do, as it is so beautiful and so lovely! For me, Violet Blossom is a classic fragrance. At first, it smells fruity before the flowery components of the heart notes come into the foreground. To say I love this fragrance is an understatement! The chords are perfect, it’s not overly sweet, and the almond note reminds me of Ameretto. My partner loves this smell on me. I got so many compliments wearing it.
This review bases upon a 200ml (6.8 Fl. oz) I have owned since June 2020.
