The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2024 by Zara and crafted by perfumer Jérôme Epinette, DAWN: Let's Begin is a fresh citrus aromatic fragrance designed to capture the essence of early morning energy. The composition opens with a bright burst of lemon that immediately awakens the senses before transitioning into the delicate sweetness of apricot blossom in the heart. This floral note adds a touch of softness and warmth, balanced by the subtle musk base that rounds out the scent. DAWN: Let's Begin is not just a fragrance; it’s an invitation to start the day with renewed vigor and freshness.
Apply this fragrance in light sprays to allow the lemon top note to shine without overpowering. The musk base develops gradually over time, making it ideal for daytime wear when you want to start fresh and carry that energy throughout your day.
