Rosa Bulgara

The quiet sophistication of a well-tended garden at twilight, where the scent of magnolia blends with the warmth of sandalwood.

The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Rosa Bulgara by Zara was launched in 2008 and is a floral fragrance for women created by Puig. This composition opens with the fresh, delicate scent of magnolia petals, leading to a heart of Bulgarian rose that is both classic and evocative. The base note of sandalwood adds warmth and depth, creating a harmonious balance between freshness and richness. Rosa Bulgara is part of Zara's Agua Parfumada collection, known for its elegant simplicity and lasting appeal.

How to wear it

Apply Rosa Bulgara in light layers to allow its delicate notes to unfold gradually. The fresh top note of magnolia is fleeting, so wait a few minutes before applying a second spray for the rose and sandalwood to truly shine.
