Zara Has the Best Sleeper-Hit Perfumes—Here Are the 10 Scents I Can't Stop Wearing

When I'm in the market for a timeless amber fragrance, I'm immediately drawn to scents featuring a blend of fresh florals. Zara's Amber in Bloom does so by pairing lively jasmine and tuberose with the warmth of amber and cashmere. While I love amber scents year-round, this particular one is a go-to for fall and winter.

For lovers of fruity and floral fragrances, the first Zara fragrance that comes to mind is the Apple Juice Eau de Toilette. It combines effervescent notes of juicy apple, pink grapefruit, and orange with a blooming bouquet of florals against the musky, woody notes of cedar and sandalwood. In other words, this doesn't count as your everyday apple scent.

With so many amber fragrances on the market, it can be hard to know which ones stand out from the bunch with added flair. Eternal Devotion goes where no amber floral scent has gone before by combining the spiciness of pink pepper with pink sugar, fresh rose, and smoky ambroxan. It's a youthful yet elegant amber perfume worth having.

If your outfit calls for garden fairy vibes and needs one last touch of whimsy, try a few spritzes of Zara's Deep Garden. It's one of those unique compositions that touches on amber and fresh notes with a mixture of sweet pear and tuberose backed by elegant tonka bean. I love pairing this one with a scent that is powdery fresh for added intrigue.

When a sparkling citrus scent is done well, it can be energizing, inviting, and beyond versatile. Zara's Fleur d'Oranger is all of the above. The nose behind this bright floral scent is perfumer Jo Malone, so if you love Jo Malone London's fragrances, there's a high chance you'll fall head over heels for this one as well.

To me, fragrances that open with a layer of warm, luminous patchouli are as classic as it can get. Fleur de Patchouli matches the note with a whisper of soft peony and bold guaiac wood, making it one of the most worn Zara fragrances in my collection. I'll always love the first few spray of this scent, but it's the dry-down that keeps me coming back.

Sometimes, fruity gourmand fragrances can border on being too sweet or medicinal smelling, and no one wants to smell like cough syrup all day long. Zara's Gardenia beats all expectations by presenting a gourmand scent profile underlined with sweet orange blossom, energizing coffee bean, and savory raspberry.

Perhaps the most polarizing fragrance of this edit, Hibiscus offers a tropical paradise in a bottle. It opens with a citrus cocktail before shifting into the colorful facets of mango and passion fruit. Wearers are also met with peony, vanilla orchid, and amber as a warm finishing touch. I love this scent for the summer months, especially if you're planning on booking a tropical vacation.

It's no secret that cozy, second-skin scents are my bread and butter, so it's no surprise the brand's Nude Bouquet is a favorite of mine. This familiar fragrance combines savory cherry, peony, and vanilla for a scent that feels like wearing your comfiest cashmere sweater.

Sophisticated, warm, and spicy, Zara's Red Vanilla Eau de Toilette is the mature fruity floral fragrance of my dreams. Fresh iris and peony pair well with zesty mandarin and raspberry before drying down to a sweet vanilla. I love how this scent wears on the skin but notice it lingers much longer on clothes with an impressive silage.
