The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Oriental Summer 2021 by Zara is a floral fruity gourmand fragrance that launched in 2021. This scent opens with the lush sweetness of coconut nectar, leading into the bright citrusy freshness of neroli. The base note of brown sugar adds a warm and comforting finish, creating an inviting and indulgent aroma. It captures the essence of a sun-soaked summer day, blending tropical sweetness with subtle floral nuances.

How to wear it

Apply this fragrance generously to capture its full warmth. The top notes are bright but fade quickly, so reapply every few hours if you want to maintain that initial tropical sweetness.
