The story behind the bottle.
Rough Orange by Zara launched in 2020 as a fresh take on the oriental fragrance category for men. This composition opens with a crisp apple note that brings an unexpected vibrancy and freshness to the top, before transitioning into a warm heart of tonka bean. The base is anchored by rich amber, creating a grounding warmth that balances the brightness above. Rough Orange stands out for its ability to blend contrasting elements — the zesty apple and the creamy tonka bean — into a harmonious whole.
Rough Orange has a bright opening that fades within an hour. To ensure you capture both the freshness and warmth, apply two sprays to your pulse points in the morning for a scent that evolves throughout the day. It's best suited for daytime wear when its fresh top notes can shine.
