The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2020 and crafted by perfumer Émilie Coppermann, Montsouris by Zara is an Oriental Vanilla fragrance that balances sweetness with aromatic warmth. The composition opens with a bright freshness of lavender and spicy notes, which contrast beautifully against the musky and powdery base. This accord is further enriched with lactonic elements that add a creamy, skin-like quality to the overall scent, creating a harmonious blend of comfort and elegance.
Apply Montsouris to your pulse points for a lasting effect — the lactonic notes will stick close to your skin throughout the day. The aromatic freshness fades within two hours, so reapply if you want to maintain that initial burst of lavender and spice.
