Bogoss Vibrant Leather Extreme by Zara

The touch of pineapple with sweet vanilla really appeals to women around me. Personally I like the regular Bogoss more, with that boosted pineapple but without vanilla and without the smoky touch compared to Aventus (which I already find heavy). This Extreme is much sweeter, but I still find it just as versatile. When it dries down, I notice an elegant powdery facet. At first I saved it for nighttime, but there the performance drops; during the day it holds up. With more than 150 perfumes in my collection including some niche, it’s my wife’s favorite. Compliment guaranteed.

It’s the Bogoss I like the least and possibly the Zara perfume I like the least. It moves quite far from the other Bogoss but it has something that for my taste makes it lose all its charm. I’d say it turns toward the generic, like a cheap supermarket perfume with pineapple on top to give it a bit more life, but the pineapple doesn’t even have the spark it does have in the other flankers. It cost me about 13-14€ on sale and I don’t think it’s worth it. I see there’s whining around here if you say you don’t like a perfume. In fact I didn’t say I didn’t like it, but that it’s the one I like the least and that for me it’s not worth it. I stand by my opinion. Try it before buying because it moves away from the other Bogoss.

It stands out from the previous Bogoss, with more darkness and heaviness in the scent, very reminiscent of Carolina Herrera for women, but being totally unisex. Good longevity and performance and recommendable for its price. One of Zara’s good ones!

I’ve had it since its launch in 2025. Within the Bogoss line, this Bogoss Vibrant Leather Extreme is probably the most distinct of all, almost like an oddball within the family. It moves quite far from the more youthful and easy profile that usually characterizes the saga, taking a more intense path with greater character. At first I must admit it didn’t convince me too much. However, over time I changed my mind. I started to smell it on other people, I noticed its good projection and, above all, the positive comments it generated among people around me, especially women. All of that made it gradually earn a spot in my collection. In my opinion it’s the least youthful of the line. In the opening that recognizable Bogoss DNA appears with a very well-done and delicious pineapple, but it quickly evolves into something drier and more mature. This is probably due to its base of patchouli and Egyptian papyrus, which give it a more serious and elegant character. I see it working very well for casual night outings in summer, although it can also perform perfectly as a signature scent in spring and fall. In terms of performance, it offers quite good longevity, especially when sprayed on clothes. That’s where it really shines, as it can project practically double and stay present for many hours.

This is the Bogoss I like the least and possibly the worst Zara perfume overall. It stands apart from the others but loses its charm for me. It takes a generic turn, like a cheap supermarket perfume with pineapple added just to make it interesting, but without the spark the others have. I picked it up for 13-14€ on sale and I don’t think it’s worth it. I’m not saying I hate it, just that it’s the one I like the least and isn’t worth the hype. I’m sticking with my opinion. Try it before buying because it really does stray from the rest of the Bogoss line.

It stands out from the others with more darkness and weight, reminding me a lot of Carolina Herrera for women but being totally unisex. Good longevity and performance, highly recommended for the price. One of the good ones from Zara!
