Zara Woman

Zara has only recently arrived in Australia, so I'm fairly new to testing Zara fragrances. Today I bought a pair of skinny lavender jeans, and while I was waiting to pay, I took the initiative and sprayed Zara Woman onto the back of my hand. Firstly, I was impressed. The opening was peachy and sweet, with moderate projection. It didn't smell cheap, which was a relief for me since I had applied it directly to my skin while out in public. As the day wore on, Zara Woman became sweeter and a touch more complex. The peach note stayed with me throughout the composition. Zara Woman is in my opinion a cross between Burberry Women and Paco Rabanne Lady Million. It starts off crisp, fruity and warm, before becoming quite sweet, with a thick blend of vanilla and caramel. For the price, Zara Woman is a fairly decent fragrance. Despite having a sweet and sugary drydown, Zara Woman is in no way a sickening, juvenile or predictable scent. It would make a great purchase if you have some spare cash laying about. Unfortunately the lasting strength wasn't all that great. Zara Woman called it quits around the same time that I decided to catch the bus home, which was around three hours after application. Nevertheless, I did enjoy Zara Woman far better than I did Lady Million. It makes an excellent, inexpensive dupe.

It smells like lady million, but as I dont like that one ,I cant really appreciate this creation either, it doesnt stink but not special at all, but for this money it is OK. The bottle is awful though. Maybe that also makes me unlike the scent inside. Usually zara has simple bottles that make them look luxurius despite their cheapness, but this one is strained.

I didn't like the first time I smelled it and the first time I sprayed it on my skin because it seemed too girly but after some seconds, I started liking the scent. It has become milder..softer..powdery.It's not overpowering. I am going to repurchase it as it is quite cheap for a 100 ml bottle.
