You are often confronted with having to buy large bottles or the small sample is empty too quickly. I liked this concept from Rituals. I have always bought the fragrances for my bag and car when I am on the go. I was particularly taken with this fragrance. It's a shame that it has been discontinued and that I only have a few milliliters left!

This fragrance stayed with me for a long time after my grandpa introduced it to me as a child. When I bought it as an adult, it was just like the first day. Unfortunately, when the fragrance was modernized after 2019, I can no longer identify with it. The fragrance before was very round, now the balance is no longer quite right. I kept ordering the old bottles here in the souk. The fragrance is still good today, but not the way I came to know and love it. Try the difference :-)

I discovered this fragrance years ago by chance through a promotion. 100ML for around €35 was worth testing at the time. I now really enjoy wearing the fragrance. The pine note is extremely appealing to me and always on the move. The fragrance is very cuddly, sometimes almost creamy in smell. To me, it smells like a fresh shower after a day of hiking in the forest. Overall, I am very pleasantly surprised.

I have rarely received more compliments for a fragrance. Perhaps precisely because it is different. The fragrance notes are all very natural and subtle, but the overall composition is very deliberate and strong in appearance. For me, it smells like a spa day, sauna infusion and the end of the day. For me, it is one of the fragrances for late summer and fall.

The fragrance is very spicy, especially at the beginning, and this somewhat overshadows the actual finesse of this fragrance (in my opinion). The longevity is average, the bottle is beautiful and the price is very fair. The story of the creative mind behind this fragrance is also fascinating. I can agree with a previous comment: it's nice that Zara has taken a risk here, it's certainly not a fragrance for everyone.
