Pink Flambé

Sweet soft warm gorgeous scent that reflects hot pink; think pink hard candies, a small fruity ice cream, gummy bears, white whipped cream, and gardenias all over musk and cashmere. It's not juvenile or cheap smelling. It's gorgeous, but I wish the longevity and silage was better. I have found Zara fragrances do improve with time so maybe this will happen also with my beloved Pink Flambe hidden gem. I love the rounded plump cubist bottles. I bought my bottle in 2023 and the see through bottle says Zara Weekend 01 on it under the name of the perfume; Pink Flambe. The notes as given by Zara online seem more on point than what is listed here on Fragrantica. Zara's descriptor is: A fun and bold feminine fragrance with sweet floral accents of rose, jasmine, and orchid wrapped in the warmth of vanilla, woody notes, and amber. A seductive, addictive, and irresistible fragrance. Side note; I sprayed this on after a long lane swim in the pool and after a shower still had a tinge of chlorine on my skin and when that chlorine mixed with pink flambé I very pleasantly got a Litchi note!

I was looking for a sweeter fragrance for a change, went to sephora and tried the new gorgeous gardenia perfume which I loved but I was hesitant to buy because of the price, I sprayed it and left the shop to see how long it would last, after 15 minutes the scent was almost gone. Then I went to Zara to try my luck , and found pink flambe which smelled very similar to gorgeous gardenia, but much softer, bough it and I've been wearing it a lot. It smells really soft and sweet,is definitely a skin scent . Few days ago,out of curiosity I got a sample of viva la juicy and actually prefer pink flame over it, VLJ is screechy and caused me a mild headache , is much sweeter and harsh and lasts about the same. So between those 3 I much prefer pink flambe , is cheap, softer and much more gourmand than VLJ and gorgeous gardenia.

I have the opaque fuchsia flanker, and as much as I hate to admit it, it does resemble Viva La Juicy in the opening. That said, it's different enough though. I owned both, and I actually hate Viva La Juicy because it gives me an instant headache. Had to return it. This one, on the other hand, I absolutely love. I think the biggest difference is in the base notes, which are absolutely magical in Pink Flambé. I've been using this perfume for my small business and in all of my Vinted orders, and I always get messages asking what perfume I use in my packages.

Top notes - rose, jasmine, and orchid Base notes - vanilla, woody notes, and amber This opens white floral/juicy with jasmine and rose, the orchid adds adds sweetness. It's super sexy, the new Fuschia bottle suits the "you wanna hot body? you wanna Bugatti?" lyrics that come into my head when I smell this haha. The dry down still retains the opening floral sweetness but blends into a soft; vanilla, woody/amber. Sillage for all Zara fragrances is 2-4 hours on me. They all remain close to the skin usually between 4-6 hours though.

I wasn't all that over the hill when I bought this perfume in a dobble box, it was a rather "daaa..." So, it was forgotten, and suddenly I rediscovered it tonight; it smelled so very different from what I remembered, so much better, is there any fudge in it? -Yes, this is a very nice perfume, I give it 8 of 10 points, because it's a very nice perfume, it fits everybody, and genders of all ages :))

This is a spot on dupe for VLJ, it’s so alike it’s scary. My friend had the OG on and I was 100% certain she borrowed my pink Flambe (I have the small roller in my backpack). But no she just had the og on. So I’m glad I don’t have to spend money on the VLJ cause it’s a really juicy good scent.

The scent notes aren't up to date anymore. I'm talking about the Zara pink flambe weekend collection. This smells actually like Victoria's secret dream angel perfume and i love it!

One of my favs from Zara. Smells feminine and soft. Even got the roll on perfume for this. Last longs too and can smell on clothes afterwards.

Nothing unique, but I love it. Very affordable candy style gourmand fragrance.

Reminds me of beyonce heat. I got the body spray version. I love it.

The current notes list on here (bergamot, lemon, sorbet + cashmeran) must be a mixup with some other fragrance. Zara's website lists pear, violet and praliné at the moment. But no matter what the notes list says, this is clearly the Zara version of Viva La Juicy. Fresh fruit and flowers on a base of vanilla and caramel, all in all a light, clean semi-gourmand scent. Pink Flambé is a little warmer and more caramelized than VLJ on my skin and not as floral. I also really get the pear note, but I can't detect any violet. At the price point of 6€/30 ml or 13€/200 ml I can't say anything bad about this. I personally find it nicer than VLJ, but not as good as VLJ Noir, which I own. When I first tested this I found it too weak, but today I just sprayed two times at the same spot and now I can still clearly detect it 6 hours later. It's not a powerhouse, but it performs fine for the price.

smells sooo similar to Viva La Juicy! i'd say that VLJ is a more intense, sweeter smelling scent than this one. I like PF and it's nice for everyday however it lacks the creaminess and caramel that VLJ has. It's nice, just more juicy. It's like if VLJ was watered down lol. you dont need PF if you already have VLJ, however i do recommend splurging abit more on VLJ as you get more for ur buck tbh and the performance is much better. I got the 30ml one, so I'm planning on just having this with me wherever I go as its so small :) good for all occasions!

I got it as a gift, and it's very nice! Fresh and lemony at first sniff, and then settles into something comfortably woodsy. I wouldn't say it's cashmere like the notes say, but it's not precisely chocolate/pralines. I can't really put my finger on it, but it's pleasant nonetheless. But it barely lasted a few hours, so you'd have to keep spritzing it throughout the day. Considering the price, I'd say it's pretty good overall.

viva la juicy? exactly! personally i love viva la juicy so i’m considering adding this to my collection to combine with my victoria’s secret tease body mist to add onto the longevity. the results are tried and true, liked by many, and truthfully there’s no shame in my game, i’m going with the budget friendly option. however, what’s up with the matte bottles? i hate them! i want to be able to see how much juice i have left.

I smell caramel, vanilla, white flowers, berries, and orange. I smell Viva La Juicy, a lighter version of it! Projection and longevity are moderate. If you’re looking for a cheaper alternative of VLJ, go for this. If you already have a full bottle of VLJ, you won’t need this unless you are really into that scent profile and want to wear it every night before sleep but don’t want to waste your VLJ.

The notes listed here are totally wrong!!! PINK FLAMBE NOTES: ROSE, JASMIN, ORCHID, VANILLA, WOODS, AMBER. Later edit: PINK Flambe Summer 2024 flanker: MANDARIN, JASMIN, PRALINE. Please note that the bottles changed too. The scent is no longer similar to the Weekend edition. Zara! Fast fashion, fast perfumery!

Fruity and youthful with some powderiness that gives it a sexy edge. Sweet but not cloying. The citric notes are not obvious. Got a mini of this in a discovery set few years back. Mine has poor longevity and projection so I wouldn't repurchase. Otherwise it's a cute frag for everyday.

I bought this cos it was £3. Smells like American Cream soda soft drink, with a tiny touch of lemon, and I'm also getting a tiny touch of the artificial candy smell you get from Pear Drops sweets. Really odd.....

To me it smells just like Viva la Juicy, just a little bit lighter. VlJ is a little bit strong, so I would buy this one for work for example, or for everyday perfume. Too bad that it does not last all that long.

The notes listed on my pink flambe are pear, lychee, chocolate and praline purchased winter 2018. It is warm and sweet, but not suffocatingly sweet. Yummy praline. Has a bit of an oriental tinge on me.

This comes off citrusy and sweet with a powdery note. Pink Flambe reminds me of viva la juicy. Perfect for everyday wear, it doesn't lasts as long so it is best to overspray to last more hours.

If you've ever used OGX Coconut miracle oil shampoo it smells EXACTLY like this. No complaints though this shit slaps

Viva la juicy ve vs tresor ile aynı kokuyor ama daha az boğucu ve daha az kalıcı diyat performans ürünü diyebilirim

Does this smell a bit like Good Girl by Carolina Hererra to anyone?

It smells like ice-cream to me!

Wait I'm surprised that the middle note has Lemon in it, I mean.. okay I can smell the bergamot but never expected there would be another "citrus-family" in the notes. This was my very first signature scent when I couldn't afford designer perfumes. LOL I still love this very much, I have two bottles of Pink Flambe and will never stop repurchasing because it reminds me of my teenage life

I just bought the latest version of it, which is an Oriental perfume. Totally different from the notes above. This version I got contained pear, litchi, chocolate, and praline. What I sensed the most are musk and praline. Pink Flambe smells really sexy and warm! It's also sweet but not like juvenile sweet. One of my male friend said it smells good, suitable for party!

I mistakenly bought Pink Flambé looking at notes above by Fragrantica, which sounded fantastic. But what I got is a clear bottle that says Pink Flambé Weekend 01. And the notes are as DelShep below wrote. This is a pretty sweet scent. However, I should have been more careful buying Zara perfumes with so many variations for the same name.

Wow, this really does smell similar to Viva La Juicy. I still prefer Viva La Juicy though, it's definitely more pleasant, impactful and long lasting. On it's own though, Pink Flambe isn't bad. I think the name is a bit misleading and so are the notes listed here.

The opening is nice. After that it reminds me of teenage girl who has tried to covered cigarette smell with cheap perfume. Not a fan

Somehow I smelled vanilla or something is sweet. Modarate performance. Another teenage's memories.

smelled cheap and sweet floral/slight fruity in an chemical alcohol way. i dont necessarily always care if the fruit notes smell very realistic as long as it smells good, but this did not smell pleasant. when it was first sprayed it smelled okay, kind of good but still cheap quality to it, but when it sit on my skin for a few minutes it smelled more like someone trying to cover up their sweat with a cheap perfume instead of showering. I prefer Pink Flambe Winter version that smells different and better. Not keeping this one.

Pink flambé starts out fresh and clean which might be lychee but quickly transforms into gourmand It's an out and out sweet fragrance but still doesn't feel heavy,, maybe because it's close to skin fragrance this smells like caramel but the nutty sweetness from the praline helps balance it out from being too sticky & sickly Get it if you want a simple inoffensive sweet juice during daytime cool weather,, doesn't really last so gotta respray often

I think in theory with the notes listed on Zara's website, Pink Flambe, should be a delicious gourmand fragrance. Unfortunately, on my skin this scent is nearly non-existent. I can faintly smell the chocolate and praline on my skin but that's only if I put my nose right to my wrist. I'm really disappointed with this fragrance, there are much better Zara perfumes on their site.

I got this a couple years ago and hated it. It truly smells gross after it gets worked into clothes. Just horrible. Not worth the money. But I heard they updated it so yeah, maybe its better now.

The newest 2024 version reminded me of sweet like candy in opening, this plasticky and sugary way. But then transformed into something rather fruity, even slightly tropical even tho I can’t find it in notes. The longevity is no more then 2 hours which is fine for eau de toilette and that price. It’s definitely a warm season scent, for me it’s spring, also the scent is very young, I can’t really imagine it on a mature woman.

this is almost exact dupe of Viva la Juicy. I knew it smelled familiar but not until I read reviews on it I put a finger on it. Fruity vanilla with touch of cashmeran. I don't really get the lemon, this is more like creamy popcicle. Either way, it smells good but lasting power is very poor. However, Viva la Juicy also has crummy lasting power but more expensive. At this price you can at least spray away all you want

I am very confused by all the reviews here because I was expecting a feminine scent. On my skin this is an aftershave cologne. I really wanted to like this but I tried it twice on different days and both times it smelled like aftershave or a hair mousse at best. As I don't want to smell like a man I think I will sell my bottle. My review is about the 2024 version.

Pretty sure the notes are wrong? It shows citruses and sorbet and cashmere which is nothing like it smells. Anyway I find it kinda smells like if you mixed viva la juicy original, noir and gold together and watered it down slightly. But still great for the price but if you have any of the viva la juicy you’ll achieve the same effect and it’ll last longer.

DelShep's comment was really helpful - the notes mentioned above don't make any sense at all. In fact, there's nothing citrusy in it - which is for the best to me - but I can definitely feel jasmine, amber and wood. Very comforting sweet scent, maybe a little soapy. I'd love the sillage to be stronger, but overall the quality is good for its price.

I was walking around at Zara and bumped into this perfume. Never got my curiosity before, but today I decided to smell and what a good surprise! I'm suspicious since this smells exactly like Serena, a perfume by a Brazilian brand called Avatim, which I honestly love. It's a bit powdery and sweet, not to young neither granny to my taste.

Oh, I don't know why but this is so masculine. At the beginning it is a nice sweet smell but it quickly changes. I thought it is feminine smell, so I even checked If it is not the right product. In conclusion, I didn't like this. PS: Longevity is so bad. I didn't even need to wash my wrist, the smell just flied away in half an hour.

I'm sorry but this was intolerable. I tried the small roller ball size, and thank goodness I didn't waste money on a full size. I had to wash this off immediately as it was just inescapable. It reminds me of those cheap avon perfumes from the 90's. Save your money and don't buy it

The originial version from 2018 has definitely more staying power and sillage. It is softer and sweeter with pear and praline - simply cozy. Even better than Viva la juicy. The new version is more citric and actually an Eau de Cologne. Gone with the sniff.

Super girly and sweet. It smells like Victoria's Secret - Tease to me. Same girly and playful DNA. Basic and generic but still good. Smells like a teenage girl who likes partying.

2024 version smells and performs exactly like VS noir tease. I used to wear noir tease everyday back in 2014 and I'm getting major flashbacks everytime I spray this.

Smells exactly like Viva La Juicy. Longevity, however, is not the best. But I like the smaller Zara bottles, as they are easy to carry around and re-apply.

I read real notes are pear, lychee, chocolat, praline. That's more like viva la juicy comparisons. It must be like that...

The notes are wrong. It is also the same scent as Oriental Gourmand. I think its just like Lancome La Nuit Tresor.

The scent is really familiar, reminds me of all of the JB's perfumes mixed in one.
