Fruity

My first Zara perfume I bought in the summer of 2010.. the first fragrance I religiously purchased ever since once the bottle finished ,although I do not use it daily or regulary...even if it dors not seems to be a big fuss of fume, for me it's a must have. On my skin it lasts more than 12 hours, and even if I do not feel it, I did received compliments when wearing it. However, I do feel that the sillage is soft, but as soft as it may be, I do feel it from morning till evening.. My experience: after spraying it I feel the grapefruit notes..more like grapefruit peel... Once it settles, something strange happens: I do not feel rose, nor vanilla...but on my skind it has a beachy / sea / sandy vibe, although non of these notes is listed....is the smell of the skin at the beach on sunset, after having taken a bath in the sea and the breezy wind and the sun dried up the skin ... I do feel as well a minty note,despite again not being listed here. On my skin I do not feel it fruity at all. A scent I always associate with holidays, uplifting. In my opinion can be worn on every occasion, all year round. Not similar to any other fragrance I know. Highly recommend it.

My skin really likes fruity notes and there is no exception here. Zara Fruit is SO pretty. This is fruity but not overly fruity at all. When you think about something like Britney's Midnight Fantasy (which I consider to be very fruity) Zara Fruity is not that fruity at all. The citrus is definitely detectable throughout the composition and it serves its purpose very well by lifting the fragrance and keeping the freshness alive. However the amber and vanilla really come forth in this right from the start and prevent the citrus from ever becoming too sharp or bitter. This is just a heavenly creamy fruityess that has a really impressive sillage and staying power. The staying power of this on my skin is better than most of my other fumes and the price is so right. This 100 ml bottle is practially a steal. I'm honestly impressed by the quality of this fume.

Edit: I think they discontinued this one. I haven't worn this for a while but it still brings back many memories. This was my all-time favourite and signature scent when I was younger for many years. It just smelled amazing on me. I've gotten so many compliments when using this compared to when I used expensive luxury fragrances. I wore this scent every single day; daytime and nighttime when I was in the beginning of my 20s. My husband still loves it on me after this many years and he doesn't want me to wear any other fragrance than this. Maybe because I wore this perfume when we first met.

I got Zara Essential in a swap which is supposed to be the same composition as Zara Fruity with the latter being the new name for this fragrance. It smells yummie! Very fruity, sweet & creamy with vanilla and amber. It's not cloying though, just has the perfect amount of sweetness. Too bad that on my skin the longevity is not that great and it gets close to the skin in about 30 minutes after spraying it on. Nevertheless I enjoy spraying this on as soon as I get out of bed in the morning, but also before going to sleep :) ♥♥♥♥

This smells so good..very fresh and fruity. I don't really smell rose or vanilla, mainly the grapefruit and definitely peach. Reminds me a little of VS love spell. Longevity is not great but this is so cheap I don't mind spraying it liberally. Looking forward to wearing this in the summer.
