I love these scents.
I have the Vetiver and Amber from the men's line, and also appreciated the Lirio de Aqua from the ladies range. There was also a peony-based women's scent that my wife fell for. Phenomenally well-priced perfumes.
Thread: Zara Perfumed Water. |
I don't think those of you in the USA will have access to Zara, a Spanish
clothes shop that is very popular over here in Europe, but I just noticed they
had 3 men's and 3 women's "Toilet Waters" for sale at a very reduced price
(£5.99 for 100ml!!) and I had to try them.
My favourite was Flor de Azahar - an orange blossom and white musk scent.
Very soft and similar to Pure Poison by Dior.
Lirio de Aqua - a Water Lily scent and Rosa Bulgara - a surprisingly nice rose scent.
The bottles look very like the Les Exclusifs de Chanel ones.
This line is made by Puig and is worth exploring for a line of well-made, minimalist
every day fragrances. I don't imagine they last long but at that price they can be refreshed
every so often during the day. Has anyone else tried these and, if so, what did you think?

I have the three men's fragrances: Sandalwood, Amber and Vetiver. They are reviewed in the missing frangances list.
Anyway, S does not have the same longevity nor sillage than A and V, which are astounding as for the price.
S opens with aquatic notes, it is quite contemporary. V and A are more traditional
Best value for money in the market, IMHO.
We do have Zara here in the US. In fact I shop at the one on Newbury St. in Boston regularly. I have never thought to look to see if they have fragrances because it never crossed my mind that they would. I'm going to have to take a look next time I'm in.
Those fraggies sound nice. And what a nice price! I don't think we have a Zara here in Virginia where I live, but I remember seeing it in NYC.

Choose America, you will find United States among the rest of the countries in the continent. Unluckily, there is no Zara in Virginia.
