The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2015 by Bvlgari and crafted by Daniela Andrier, Zahira is a warm and spicy oriental floral that captures the essence of Italian luxury. The fragrance opens with a bold burst of cinnamon, which immediately sets a spicy tone before giving way to the sweet and heady notes of ylang-ylang in the heart. The base note of benzoin adds an earthy warmth, rounding out the composition with a rich and enveloping finish.
Apply Zahira to pulse points for a warm, lingering effect. The spicy top notes will initially dominate but give way to the deeper floral and woody accords after about an hour, making it perfect for evening wear.
