Strolling Over Heaven

Bought it with Ice Walk for 12.50€ ( 14$ ) and I'm astonished. At first sprays I was a bit disappointed, for a couple of seconds I thought that I got a botched bottle, but after 15-20 seconds, La Nuit vibe starts to develop and it is amazing. It is a softer version of La Nuit, but really really similar, I would say 95% similar. Probably the lack of cardamom is what made me doubt about it on the opening, but on the dry down guys, you can't get a better clone at a cheaper price. I heard a lot of people complaining about silage and projection, but on my skin works pretty well. I have it on right now ,I sprayed two times on my forearm four hours ago, it still projecting and I can definitely smell it quite clearly around me ( for instance, I sprayed on my left forearm this one and Ice Walk on the right one, Ice Walk stopped projecting after one hour and a half, Strolling Over Heaven still there and keep going ). If you love LNDL and you have a Zara store near you, give it a shot, it will definitely replace my original LNDL bottle for everyday purpose. Scent - 9/10 - LNDL. If you love it, you will love this one. Opening a bit disappointing, but after 15-20 seconds only someone who knows LNDL pretty well would recognize the difference between the two. Longevity - 8.5/10 Haven't tried on clothes, but on my skin longevity is really really good Projection - 9/10 On my skin works wonderfully, probably I have the right chemical composition for this kind of notes, but more than 4 hours of projection for 6€ was really unexpected Price - 10/10 Got the package combo with Ice Walk. I basically paid 6€ for each perfume. Greatest deal ever. Overall - 9/10 Can't give 10 because it doesn't have the depth and complexity of the original one, but guys, don't' sleep on this one, this is an amazing scent at a ridiculous price. Next time I will be around a Zara store I will get at least two back up bottles in case it gets discontinued.

From the back of the box Top Notes: Bergamot, Sage Lavander, Green Middle Notes: Rose, Clove Base Notes: Vetivr, Patchouli, Tonka, Musk La nuit De L'Homme clone. It is similar to it in the opening. A spot on smell which I think ppl couldn't tell apart. But as it is drying down I get this almost plasticity vibe, like Zara 9.0 has a bit. It is good frag but the performance is beyond terrible. I sprayed this 3 times on my arm and it was completely gone within an hour. hour and a half. Where for example Zara 9-0 newest formulation projects and lasts as a very strong skin scent for 12+ hours on my skin. Honestly, i know Zara has weak frags but damn this is weak. Some deeper smelling axe lasts longer. You simply need to bathe in this. It's an okay substitute if you wanna smell like LNDL or save your LNDL. Only for cuddling and sex, as projection is ZERO!! I find newest batches of LNDL last okay and way way longer than this.

Basically going to follow what simpa256 and farook said. Perfman nailed it on the head too. Opening is beautiful, resembles the ever so infamous La Nuit De L'homme by YSL, yet it dries down to something a little different from it, per se. Clearly, its just missing the cardamom! Granted, Strolling Over Heaven is an incredible bang for the buck for those wanting to save their LNDLH, or to use as like a layering option. I can see Zara bringing this back (as a different name + bottle) but not for a long while. [Edit] 3 Year Update [06-23-20] Still had some of it left, but still makes a great fragrance to add as a top layer of newer (maybe 2017 and up) batches of LNDLH EDT or by itself. Opening always fascinates me of how Zara got this close. Initial spray, at least on my skin is still strong, but performance is still moderate. Atomizer sucks even more now, so I have to go maybe full OCD to get the performance I need.

I'll revise my review after further comparisons with LNDLH. Again, the scent is very nice and eerily sinilar to LNDLH. The difference is in performance and drydown. One thing I noticed with SOH is that the drydown is a bit sharper than LNDLH. It is also more synthetic. LNDLH lasts for 8-10+ hours while this one lasts for 6-8 hours. Scent - 9/10 (bonus points for similarities and good opening and middle notes, again the drydown might be too synthetic for some but for me it's still acceptable) Longevity - 8.5/10 Projection - 8.5/10 Value - 10/10 Overall - 9/10 Could be worn in any weather and for any age (versatile enough) Zara Y is a bit softer in drydown than this one, but both are very similar that I'll give the same score for that one too. Edit: I did this review when my nose wasn't trained for some other types of fragrances, so take this review with a grain of salt.

Just sprayed it a few hours ago, and I compared it with La Nuit de L'Homme (2017 batch). La Nuit de L'Homme is definitely stronger and has more character to it. But Strolling Over Heaven has a very strong resemblance to La Nuit de L'Homme eventually. I can't believe how similar they are. Zara did a great job here. If only it lasts longer....
