The story behind the bottle.
True Fact by Zara was launched in 2019 as a contemporary take on the woody oriental genre. This fragrance opens with a crisp and refreshing note of apple that immediately sets a vibrant tone. The heart is anchored by woody notes, providing a natural and earthy foundation. As it settles into the base, amber adds warmth and depth, creating a harmonious balance between freshness and richness.
True Fact has a bright top note that fades within an hour, so layering it with the base notes is key. Start with one spritz to let the apple and woody heart blend naturally, then add another after an hour as the amber begins to bloom for a more balanced wear.
