  1. Smells like premium cotton hotel sheets in a minimalist suite, like after a ski trip to Gstaad and a relaxing shower. It’s simple, elegant, and slightly youthful, with that classic unisex cologne touch. Even though it’s an Eau de Parfum, it performs like a fresh splash of cologne, similar to 4711. A hit from Zara: they democratize luxury at a great price. Does it smell synthetic? Who cares for 25 euros! There are hundreds of designer perfumes that cost more but smell the same, yet lack originality.

  2. Clean citrus scent, as if just out of the shower with an expensive soap. I bought it for post-workout use, but back in August 2024 in Mexico, they told me the Olivia Giacobetti line is out of stock. I’m not sure if that’s true, but the trail and longevity are decent for the price.

  3. One of Zara’s hidden gems. People call it generic because it smells like detergent, but it’s not Neroli Portofino. It’s the true scent of clean laundry: washed cotton without fabric softener, with a neroli dry-down and a musky touch. It’s not for sports or the beach, but perfect for casual wear to maintain freshness. Performance is modest, but if you spray it on clothes, it’s ideal for summer.

    I regret not buying the whole collection. It’s not just for men; it’s unisex. The scents are simple but delicious, they bring a sense of calm, and are perfect for hot days.

    I’m careful writing this because I love it so much, but Popeline Blanche is affordable and smells incredible. It doesn’t smell cheap; it’s fresh, floral, dry, and vintage. In 45-degree desert heat in Mexico, it lasts a long time. It might remind you of Neroli Portofino or classic Italian colognes, but it has its own charm. It’s an Eau de Parfum even though the bottle says cologne.

  6. Zara’s best perfume right now (April 2024). A floral and citrus spectacle that defies masculinity. It’s very similar to Cologne Come Together by Morillas. Smells like the bed sheets of a billionaire who’s obsessed with making the bed. Ideal for terraces. An alternative to NIO by Xerjoff. Buy blind: yes.

  7. Look no further, this is Zara’s best perfume right now (April 2024). A sensory showstopper that defies masculinity, which I adore. It could be Alberto Morillas’ work; to me, especially at the start, it strongly reminds me of Cologne Come Together. An explosion of fresh floral and citrus notes with that clean touch. Smells like the bed sheets of a billionaire YouTuber who’s obsessed with making their bed. In short: a garden of freshly watered flowers and greens. Ideal for terrace outings. Alternative: NIO by Xerjoff (barely). Blind buy? Yes. ★★★★★

    Neroli with citrus and a very clean dry-down. Totally unisex, perfect for spring and summer. Lasts about 5 hours with average projection. If tested blind, I’d say it’s much more expensive. If you like 4711, Neroli Portofino, or Italian colognes like Acqua di Parma, this is a must-buy.

    Neroli with citrus and a flawless dry-down that’s clean and super fresh. Totally unisex, perfect for spring and summer. Lasts about 5 hours with medium projection and sillage. I was blown away; blind-bought, I’d swear it’s way more expensive. If you like 4711, Neroli Portofino, or classic Italian colognes like Acqua di Parma, this is a must-buy. Best of Zara.

  10. Citrus and green opening with bitter bergamot and petitgrain, very fresh and invigorating. The neroli gives that clean post-shower cologne vibe. Then it evolves into a skin scent that lasts about 4 hours. A classic style that never fails.

  11. Very citrusy and green opening, with bitter bergamot and petitgrain that bring freshness and energy. The neroli adds that clean touch, like a classic post-shower cologne. Then it shifts to a skin scent that lasts well for about 4 hours. A classic style that never fails.

  12. At first, it reminds me of 4711 or Nenuco, but soon the neroli blends with cotton flower and white musk. It’s fresh, clean, and I absolutely love it. I really like this new Zara collection. The longevity is correct for its type: 1.5 hours intense with the citrus, then another 3 hours closer to the skin. Super clean, pleasant, and exactly what I was looking for.

  13. At first, it smells like 4711 and reminds me of Nenuco, but then the neroli blends with cotton and white musk for a fresh, super-clean scent I absolutely love. I really like this new Zara collection. Lasting power is just right for this type of fragrance. Intense projection for about an hour and a half with the citrus and neroli at full blast, then another 3 hours close to the skin. Super clean, pleasant, and hits exactly what I’m looking for.
