In recent months, Zara's perfumes Gardenia and Red temptation have garnered attention for being Zara’s consistent haul selection for shoppers today. This has taken the internet by storm. The Millennials and Gen Z’s take on spending wisely by getting the best dupes and thrifts of their favorite luxury brands has created a market for a brand like Zara to flourish within them. While nothing surpasses the thrill of splurging on luxury products, something is satisfying about spending around $25 on a fragrance that brings double the attention and praise from friends.

Fragrances like Gardenia, Femme, and Violet Blossom try to encapsulate the ingenious scents of luxury brands like Dior and YSL but do they succeed?

2.     ZARA GARDENIA EAU DE PARFUME

Specifications: $25.58 30ml Eau de Parfum 

Notes: Orange blossom, coffee, peach, raspberry

            As one of Zara’s most prominent perfume dupes, Gardenia senses almost similar to YSL’s Black Opium. Though it doesn't compare to its namesake, Gardenia doesn’t smell too florally (it has this persistent blooming scent) and isn't as meritorious as Yves Saint Laurent. It delivers profound notes of orange blossom, coffee, and vanilla for a reserved and seductive perfume. It is placed favorably for dawning a mature sweetness to it while remaining warm, desirable, and fun – making it a comfortable choice for impressing someone with your scent choice. Lastly, Gardenia doesn't compare to YSL's Black Opium based on longevity and scent value, but you can expect an expensive-smelling fragrance to ascertain its value as one of the best Zara fragrances you can grab on a budget.

Pros :

ü      ü Best for springtime

Notes: Cherry blossom, magnolia, tonka beans

Get the intoxicating, deep, and sweet mellow scents of violet blossoms with Zara's Violet Blossom Eau De Parfum. The perfume balances the sweet candy-like and woody notes of tonality with grace and pose. Cherry blossom, magnolia, and tonka beans are the notes to be carried by a winter evening out fragrance, velvety and dark with a slight pinch of sweetness to it. Unfortunately, the perfume smells identical and is a feebler interpretation of Poison Girl by Dior. One might suggest or recommend Poison Girl over Violet Blossom due to the lack of longevity and potency.

Pros :

ü      ü Great for perfume layering

ü      ü Typically feminine scent

ü      ü Youthful and light

    As you can see, Zara does try to succeed in creating perfumes that bring the best fragrance at an affordable price for everyone. It is not the fragrance that makes you, but you who is the fragrance. There is no shame in purchasing a dupe product if you do not like spurlging on top-end luxury brands, as it remains a secret locked away in your heart for good. If I had to choose from them, my personal favorite and the best Zara perfume would be Gardenia for the lingering floral scent and its sweet tones of serenity and for sexy vibes and a bit glamour notes absolutely it goes to Red Temptation. So, if you liked the top selection, keep your head up for the upcoming shopping hauls and find the destined scent for you. 

 

HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT PARFUME?

Ø    Fragrance

      When buying a perfume from the market, spray a little amount of fragrance on your wrist and smell it to get a gist of the aroma. Be certain about the fragrance, whether it pleases you or not. If you adore soft fragrances, then you can go for floral. If you love wearing strong scents, then go for fruity perfumes.

 

Ø  Lasting Power

         The lasting power is decided upon the four concentration levels of fragrances. High-concentration fragrances usually have more powerful scents that last longer. If you want longevity then you must buy high-concentration fragrances. The price of perfumes goes high based on the concentration of the perfumes. Daily use of scents requires 2% to 4% concentration which lasts for four hours. Scents with a minimum 10% concentration last for eight hours and perform best for workplaces. Long-lasting scents stay intact for 10 or more hours with more than 12% concentration.

 

Ø  Season

        You must choose the perfumes according to the seasons. Fresh and floral fragrances like the ocean breeze and mint work well for summertime. In wintertime, prefer stronger fragrances such as woody or musky scents like amber or cedar. Oriental and warm scents such as sandalwood work wonders in the rainy season.

 

Ø  Ingredients

      Keep in mind that each perfume has its exceptional formula and ingredient that affects the fragrance as well as your skin. Don't sensitive skin issues ruin your fragrant experience. Select a scent made from natural fruits and flowers to avoid harsh ingredients or artificial fragrances. Stay clear from perfumes with toxic ingredients like alcohol, parabens, camphor, benzaldehyde, or benzyl acetate.
