Pistachio Infusion

This is surprisingly very different from the notes.. I was shocked how much it smells like raghba from lattafa. The notes don't coincidence at all but I'll be damned if this doesn't smell like a musky oud type scent on my skin. It even reminds me a bit of oud mood from lattafa as well. It's just a little sweeter and more palatable than those as they are very heavy Arab oudh scents. Though it's not the gourmand pistachio scent I imagined I do still really enjoy it. It's a heavy, nighttime date night kind of scent to me. Very good projection and silliage and great price. The longer it sits on me the more sweet it becomes.. I do own angels share but I haven't used it much to be terribly familiar with it and it's in storage now.. off memory I think it does resemble that as well. But wow, first whiff was so uncanny to raghba If you want a scent from Zara that does smell like pistachio funnily enough it would be moonlight whisper. That has some spice and musk, but definitely gourmand pistachio. I think they should have swapped the names for these two. That one being sweeter, and this one being the darker musky scent..

Definetely, it's quite similar to Nocturnal Life and Sand Desert at Sunset but not exact scent packaged with different name as Pistachio Infusion falls more into gourmand category meanwhile lacking cinnamon and smokey accords opposite to other two fragrances . Comparison to citrusy opening of Nocturnal Life , Pistachio Infusion opens with quite short lived loud nutty, sweet pistachio ice cream like scent . Then it settles into round, sweet tonka base and it remains linear. While Nocturnal Life and Sand Desert at Sunset more fall, winter suitable scents, Pistachio Infusion is definitely uplifting worth to try summer scent. So, saying it's exactly same as Nocturnal Life, Sand Desert at Sunset would be quite surface level look at the perfumes even though they're all similar to Angel's Share .

One of the best Zara perfumes. Smells like a freshly baked apple pie, with the apples charmingly caramelised (I get some honey notes too) and some rum added in the mixture as well (I can clearly smell something that brings to mind a buttery and spiced rum sauce). It's so warm and cosy. Probably the cosiest Zara perfume I have smelled. I currently have 3 bottles of this - don't want to even think about running out as it's already discontinued where I live. To my nose, it has nothing to do with pistachio. If you like the smell of a freshly baked Hot Buttered Rum Apple Pie, this is your perfume!

I thought I would finally find my gourmand pistachio perfume but I was wrong. HOWEVER, I am not disappointed at all; I agree with most of comments that it is inspired by Angel Share and I am not mad ad it. For me it smells like cinnamon sugar bakery. On clothes, especially sweaters, it lasts quite long time. The projection is ok, not beast but will create nice scent bubble. The price is 9.95€ in EU for 30 ml so I plan to buy back up bottles because you can easily layer with another perfumes.

Wow, this was love at first smell. Totally unique; it wasn't trying to be a dupe of anything, although people say it was a dupe of angel's share. Angel's share was much more spicy and boozey as others have said; this is more feminine, a bit lighter, although the sillage and longevity were intense. One of the reasons I loved it. Can't really find other fragrances with these unique notes sadly.. such a shame it's discontinued or it would have been my signature along with burberry goddess.
