The Story

Zagal by Otz Lab is a richly layered Oriental Spicy fragrance that was launched in 2026 and crafted by perfumer Gaël Montero. It opens with fruity and sweet notes, providing an initial burst of warmth and brightness. This freshness gives way to a heart of vanilla, which adds depth and comfort. The base combines woody and warm spicy elements with powdery and amber accords, creating a sense of complexity and richness that lingers on the skin.

Application Tips

Apply Zagal in light layers to allow the various accords to unfold gradually. The fruity top notes are fleeting, but the base's warmth will last throughout the day. This fragrance is best enjoyed close to skin rather than diffused into the air.
