What a great look this story has
Seeing it at Zara, the name ‘Jackfruit’ surprised me, reminding me of that tropical fruit that used to fall from the tree onto the boulevard in Honduras and, unfortunately, rot on the grass without anyone eating it. Although it’s delicious when fried, its natural smell is quite strong, so it caught my attention that Zara would use it for a perfume. As usually happens, the name has nothing to do with the actual aroma; this smells like summer, tropical, and very bright, like grapefruit with sugar, no mango at all, more like a citrus mojito. It’s perfect for the heat, shopping, picnics, or taking a break from heavier fragrances. The only flaw is that it doesn’t last long, about an hour on the skin, but if you like fresh and carefree scents, it’s worth trying, maybe it lasts longer on another person’s skin.
I spotted it at Zara and the name ‘Jackfruit’ caught me off guard, since it’s a tropical fruit we know well here in Honduras, even though many people don’t. When I was little, on the boulevard in front of my house, there was a tree dropping huge fruits that no one picked up and just rotted. Once we decided to take one whole one, which weighed nothing, and while it tastes great when fried, it smells awful, almost stinky. That’s why I was surprised Zara would use it, but as they usually do, the name has nothing to do with the scent. In reality, it smells like summer, citrusy and bright, like a grapefruit mojito with sugar; I don’t sense any mango at all. It’s perfect for the heat, going shopping, or working out. The only downside is that it doesn’t last; it wore off on me in an hour, but if you like fresh and carefree scents, give it a try, maybe it’ll last longer on you.
