Zara For Her 2012

I dread the day my bottle of Sicily is empty! I cannot stand the injustice of its discontinuation - it's a bloody masterpiece of a fragrance. Imagine if they discontinued No5 just ten years into its life? Sicily was a modern classic. So I just bought a 100ml bottle of Zara for Her for £30.99 on eBay, arriving in a few days. Logic suggests that in Zara the frangipani would take the place of the banana. My only other experience of frangipani is in Kate Moss Lilabelle, a hyper girly fragrance. I've been watching the reviews since someone first suggested the similarity to Sicily, and my goodness, you guys, please don't be wrong, let this be a dupe! Will update when my bottle arrives and I can do a side by side comparison! UPDATE Arrived this morning, opened up the weighty bottle and - Sicily? Is that you?? Why are you wearing pink? Oh my god it's 99% a clone! The missing 1% is a speck of warmth and weight - an aspect of heavy cream and banana. It's the expensive aldehydes of Sicily that Zara doesn't have. I've heard speculation on other forums that it was these aldehydes and new EU rulings which may have done Sicily in. I'm really very impressed with the longevity Zara has in spite of being an EDT. Sits close to the skin, can't wait to see if it blossoms under AC in summer as Sicily does. Sicily was my first true love, while Zara isn't as rich or powerful, she's a forever love <3 NOW PLEASE. DO NOT DISCONTINUE HER.

l think this perfume is a good one for everyday use. l like this soapy smell ,is clean and comfort and must have for people who loves soapy scents . l read the reviews and l think the dry down is very similar with sicily because both are very soapy but in the opening they are very different. Personally l don't care if this one is not the perfect copy of Sicily because is good in her own. Here in Greece the price in Zara shops is only 10 or 15 euro for 100 ml and for everyday use it worth.(every perfume there costs from 5 euro ,10 euro only 3-4 have 15 euro) . So why not? personally l like Zara perfumes more than some celebrity because they doesn't have that plastic cheap smell for the price they are. Good longevity and sillage for that price is another thing l like in this perfume.

I sprayed this one while I was at the pay desk in zara shop, i didnt noticed what its name was , left the shop just remembering the light pink bottle of it. After a few hours later, I arrived my home, but this scent was incredibly smelling. It is little bit hot and sweet , but absolutely very clean , very creamy , soft and feminine. And beside of the beautiness of the scent, its price is a bonus, i bought a 100 ml bottle for 35.$.

If you liked Sicily your gonna sure as hell like this. If you loved Sicily your gonna be one happy lady! Complete dupe although I find it a little sweeter and longevity not as good. Great price too. Definitely a great blind buy for Sicily fans. I want to start a petition to bring back Sicily!!!

This one is very similar to Sicily, but warmer and creamier. I can also notice some vanilla here.
