I own this version and admit it’s a dupe for The One, just softer and less loud, perfect for everyday wear.
The best thing about Zara is that they last and are cheap. Most smell good, except for two. This one is fruity with vanilla, very sensual.
It’s a very pleasant companion for every day, sweet, powdery, and very feminine.
My opinion is similar to Red Vanilla and Oriental from Zara: the scents aren’t alike, but the quality and longevity are identical. Black Amber smells rich, starts citrusy but fades quickly to reveal vanilla with a powdery touch, leaving only a subtle citrus trail. Is it a clone of The One? It resembles it when dry, but not enough to be one. If Red Vanilla is the soft version of LVEB, Black Amber is the The One equivalent. On my skin, the longevity and sillage are moderate to soft.
I loved it, I was just looking for a sweet and vanilla fragrance (not too much since I get dizzy) and winter-y, and this is it. I haven’t tried The One, but considering the price this fragrance had, it’s incredible, I’ll buy it again once I finish it.
My review is very similar to the one I did for Red Vanilla and Oriental, both also by Zara, not because they are similar scents, which they aren’t, but because their quality and performance are similar. Black Amber smells rich with a citrus opening that lasts a breath to give way to a vanilla scent with a powdery touch, leaving only a very subtle hint of those initial citrus notes. Clone or dupe of The One? Where it reminds me most is in its dry down, but it doesn’t reach being that similar to consider it so. If Red Vanilla could be the soft and more informal version of LVEB, Black Amber could be the version of The One. Longevity and trail, at least on my skin, moderate to soft.
Zara colognes, well, their longevity is very scarce. My favorites are the Artisan Caramels from Barcelona… it’s addictive!
A very pleasant passion fruit and vanilla fragrance, simply delicious, very similar to The One, in the end it leaves a powdery trail. I consider its longevity very good, about 6 hours on the skin. Sweet, sensual, and best of all, very affordable.
A very pleasant passion fruit and vanilla perfume, simply delicious. Very similar to The One, it ends with a powdery touch. The fixative is good, about 6 hours on the skin. It’s sweet, sensual, and best of all, very affordable.
I love it! Perfect for an autumn night. I get compliments 100% of the time. It’s exquisitely sweet, then vanilla comes out, leaving mandarin and musk behind. It has so much personality and character, it really stands out.
I love it! For autumn nights. 100% compliments. It’s exquisitely sweet, then the vanilla comes through and it fixes on a critical tangerine and musk. It highlights personality; it’s a fragrance with a marked character. Highly notable.
I really like it. It’s not the same, but it reminds me a lot of The One by D&G (in its EDT version; I find the EDP too strong). It belongs to Zara’s night collection, however, I think it’s IDEAL for fresh days, winter, and even spring. It has an excellent trail and very good longevity; obviously, the latter depends a lot on pH because reviews usually say Zara fragrances don’t last well, however with me they work. It’s an elegant, modern, classy fragrance, sweet in just the right measure. Girls and teenagers, stay away!
I have it but it’s not my favorite, despite having passion fruit, I don’t really notice it. It’s not bad, it smells good. It feels soapy, nothing invasive and pleasant for daily wear. On the skin, I think I could use it in any season. I don’t find it sweet either, but I insist that it smells very soapy. I wouldn’t buy it again since I’d give it up for ‘Oriental’ which has better performance and I like it more.
The best part is how fresh and clean it smells; it’s quite versatile. At first, I detect mandarin, though it’s hard to spot because it’s not 100% mandarin by the end, so I assume it blends with the passion fruit (I’ve only tasted it in powdered juices, so not much). Yes, after half an hour it smells sweet, fresh, citrusy, and always very clean. I only wear it to sleep; I’ve never worn it out, but people at home say it smells great. I think it works for any occasion or season. I don’t remember the scent of D&G’s The One to confirm that. The trail lasts 1-2 hours and on the skin 3-4. It’s fun, clean, fresh, fruity, and sweet. Cheers.
The best part is that it smells fresh and clean, very versatile. At first, I notice the tangerine, though it’s a bit hard to detect because it’s not 100% tangerine right out of the bottle; I assume it mixes with the passion fruit (I’ve only tasted passion fruit in powdered drinks, so I don’t know much about this), but after fifteen minutes it smells sweet, fresh, citrusy, and always very clean. I only wear it to sleep; I’ve never worn it out, but at home people say it smells delicious. I think it works for any occasion or season. I don’t remember the scent of The One by Dolce & Gabbana to confirm that. The trail lasts 1-2 hours and on the skin about 3-4. Fun, clean, fresh, fruity, and sweet. Cheers.
Soft, elegant, and beautiful. Passion fruit, musk, and vanilla… The trail is moderate but lasts a long time on the skin. It sounds like a warmer, simpler version of Diamonds by EA with The One by DG, very faithful to its line with similar longevity on skin. It’s super addictive; I wish it came in 200ml. Just got compliments wearing it.
I bought it based on the good reviews without having tried The One. At first, I didn’t like it; it smelled like cough syrup. But once it dried on my skin, it became delicious and super elegant. The downside is that it doesn’t last long on my skin.
At first, it smells like sunscreen, but soon it shifts into a creamy, soft passion fruit that becomes fruitier and less acidic over time, thanks to the vanilla and musk. It felt like a great everyday scent for transitional weather—simple and perfect for the price. It lasts about 4 hours with weak projection after the first hour. If you’re looking for something similar but with better longevity, try Rasasi’s Jasmin Wisp: it’s pricier but worth it; the projection is so strong it could reach Jupiter, and people will smell it until the end of the world. Pleasant: 6/10, Interesting: 4/10, Versatile: 7/10, Original: 6/10.
Honestly, I don’t detect any fruit in this perfume. I love it, but I perceive it as much warmer and more vanilla-like even from the very first moment.
Honestly, I don’t detect any fruit at all. I love it, but I perceive it as much warmer and more vanilla-forward, even from the first spray.
Seductive and sensual, perfect for chilly autumn and winter nights thanks to that warm touch. It smells sweet yet delicate, like a candy mixed with freshness and fruit. The projection is incredible and it lasts for hours; it starts intense, then the vanilla emerges to carry the scent all day with a powerful trail. I love it—ideal for romantic plans, night outs, and dinners.
Not for me; it’s the least favorite Zara scent I’ve tried. It’s not ugly, just not my style. I don’t enjoy the blend: the passion fruit and tangerine don’t work for me, and the vanilla base sweetening everything adds nothing. The notes feel separated, and I dislike the combination. Not my cup of tea.
NOT MY STYLE. It’s one of the ones I like least from Zara. It’s not ugly, just not for me. It’s not my type of fragrance, I don’t enjoy it. There’s something about the passion fruit and mandarin that doesn’t quite convince me, and the vanilla base sweetening everything doesn’t add anything for me. The notes feel separate, and I’m not sure I like the blend. Not my cup of tea!
It literally smells like sweat, gross.
Literally smells like sweat 🤢
To me, it smells like fruit nectar, similar to The One Essence or Givenchy’s Dahlia. Others might find it heavy, but I think it tastes delicious.
I absolutely love it! I keep coming back to it. The tangerine is powerful and fresh at first, then comes the passion fruit, musk, and vanilla. The last note adds sweetness without being cloying. It reminds me of D&G’s The One and works for any season or time of day.
I love it, though I don’t pick up any citrus notes. It’s calm but sometimes smells like white flowers (which I adore) and vanilla, making it a bit strong despite being light. Very floral and lovely, perfect for an afternoon with friends, a date, or dinner.
They say it’s a clone of D&G’s The One and they’re right, but Black Amber shines brighter, feels cleaner and more luminous. It smells feminine and elegant without being heavy or overwhelming—true clean girl vibes.
