The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2021, Summer 9.0 by Zara is a Citrus Aromatic fragrance for men, crafted by perfumer Amandine Galliano. The composition opens with bright citrus notes of orange, mandarin, and lemon, which create a fresh and invigorating top layer. As the scent settles, warm spices like cardamom and orris add depth and complexity to the aroma, while vetiver and amber ground it in earthy warmth. This fragrance is designed to capture the essence of summer with its vibrant freshness and subtle warmth.

How to wear it

Apply two sprays to ensure that the bright citrus notes are balanced by the warming spices and earthy base. This fragrance blooms best when allowed to settle on the skin for about an hour, so it's ideal for wearing in the morning or early afternoon.
