Launched in 2021, Grapefruit Incense by Zara is a citrus fragrance that balances the zesty brightness of grapefruit with the subtle warmth of rose and woody notes. The nose behind this fragrance is Jo Malone, who crafts an aroma that feels both fresh and grounding. The top note of grapefruit offers a crisp, invigorating start, while the heart of Rose de Mai brings a soft floral sweetness to the composition. It all settles into a base of white woods, creating an overall impression of freshness with a touch of incense-like warmth.

Application Tips
Apply this fragrance with one or two sprays to allow the citrus notes to brighten your day without overpowering. The grapefruit is particularly vibrant in the first hour, so it's best suited for daytime wear when you want a fresh, invigorating scent.

“I couldn't afford to go to perfumery school. So I taught myself. Sometimes not knowing the rules is the greatest advantage.”
Jo Malone is a self-taught perfumer and entrepreneur who fundamentally changed how people think about wearing fragrance. With no formal training — she learned by mixing bath oils in her kitchen — she built Jo Malone London into a global luxury brand defined by its elegant simplicity and innovative layering concept. Her fragrances, including Lime Basil & Mandarin and English Pear & Freesia, are designed to be combined, creating a personal scent wardrobe rather than a single signature. After selling her brand to Estée Lauder, she returned to perfumery with Jo Loves, proving that her creative vision remains as vital as ever.
