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.

Zara discontinues everything that I love. This perfume is one of my favourites: It might be another inspiration of Angels Share but this is a very feminine leaning version. It has some Arabic vibes to it, it's spices. It reminds me of some nut dessert with a hint of incense. I don't think pistachio is the main guest here but it does make a lovely appearance: I get more of cinnamon and sweet spices on my skin. Absolutely lovely hope that someday it returns.

I love this fragrance. Took me a while work out what it reminds me of. Smells like caramelised apple pie to me. The spice smells like the caramel is about to burn, I think it is cloves. Probably will wear more in the autumn and Christmas. I wore it with Khair pistachio which added lightness. Nebras worked well with it too.

Surprisingly, as I dislike sweet gourmands, but I became addicted to it. Sprayed a few times at the shop, asked my 6yo, and she immediately said she feels cinnamon:) and I continued sniffing my hand. Now I bought it, and it is sweet, uplifting, reminds of baking, but suitable for everyday wear. Give it a try!

I love this perfume. I don't get much pistachio but a spicy, incense, apple vibe. I originally got it as part of a set but found it is now sold on its own 100ml bottle in the UK. I was worried the formulation might have changed but it's exactly the same, delicious.

I really like it. At first when I read the comments here I thought that it might not be that good but its actually very likeable. At first it is nutty but later it is more sweet and it smells like apple pie and cinnamon. It is also very cheap. I recommend it.

Definitely not Sand Desert at Sunset nor Angels' Share. Has a short-lived impression of pistachio in the opening, followed by a majestic overload of pure tonka/coumarin bliss that can give you the impression of a cherry pipe tobacco smell. As simple as that.

I happened to find this one smell like apple pie to my nose! She’s not too sweet and just the right amount where you can go either way to layer her w the more sweet or woody or spicy or even be fine alone. It’s a fun fragrance. I am not mad.

A sweet, nutty perfume with gentle honeyed notes that add warmth and richness. Soft and comforting, it creates a lovely sunny feeling. Smooth, inviting, and easy to enjoy — a fragrance that feels cozy.

The top notes smell like pistachio ice-cream to me. The dry-down is an Angel's Share dupe, like a few people have mentioned. It lasts all day and costs 20 euro for 100ml! Amazing deal!

It was very medicinal and the pistachio artificial in the top notes but then the dry down reminds me a lot of Angel’s Share. Need to try on my skin to check

Does this infusion line come also in a big 80ml bottle? so far I've only seen the small 30ml which is pitty as I love this one and the ruby one 💕

Huele bastante dulce y le siento una ligera nota de canela. Huele como a un postre de pistacho mojado con café con leche :)

Ugh soooo goooood why do they discontinued the best ones. It smells exactly like apple pie

I recently watched a YouTube review on this and immediately came on here to give my two cents for what it’s worth lol. First off , I get what some people are saying : it smells no different that Zara’s “Nocturnal Life” , in which I DO detect SOME similarities. However , on an in depth sniff/smell or inhalation of the fragrance , I DO detect a bit of nuttiness that comes off as a bit earthy or even a little like dirt for lack of a better description. Actually , it smells a little like the peeling part of a pistachio... like the little thin covering that covers the actual nut after breaking the shell open. Secondly , on my skin , it smells sweet and somewhat like something you’d smell upon walking into a baskin robins ice cream restaurant. Thirdly , this is nothing like kayali’s yum fragrance , but I think it would be a nice layering combo just to try something a little different. All in all , I don’t think it’s 100% like Noctirnal life , and a lot nuttier than. It’s a nice fragrance , and I’m glad I purchased the smaller size before they officially come out with the largest sizes (if they ever do ). Gives some time to ponder if it’s worth purchasing a larger one.

Smells nothing like I thought it would from the name or the notes. It’s not nutty at all and it smells more like fresh apples than pistachio or iris, though I do get a bit of tonka bean. I actually see a bit of similarity to Angels’ Share in the dry down, but again it’s more of a fresh, kind of tart apple scent than a spicy, vanillic apple pie. The tartness does fade after about 10 minutes, but otherwise it remains pretty linear and never really develops any sort of creaminess. Unfortunately it is quite faint and only lasts about 4 hours on me. In terms of perfumes listed as similar— ✔️ Maison Alhambra Kismet Magic/Kiss: similar but spicier and more vanillic ❌ BBW Vacation Vibe: a dupe of SDJ ‘62 ❌ Lattafa Khamrah: a date pastry covered in powdered sugar ❌ Navitus Baklava Royale: no fruitiness ❌ Snif Heal the Way: a light pistachio and vanilla scent ❌ Tom Ford Lost Cherry: very tart cherry scent with very little sweetness ❌ Zimaya Sharaf Blend: powdery and much spicier
