Have you worn Hibiscus?

Tell us how it opens, how it settles on your skin, how long it lasts and when you wear it.

  1. It’s one of the few citrus scents I own and it’s absolutely brilliant. The orange opening is stunning, then within seconds mango and passion fruit kick in, making it addictive, clean and sparkling. Lasts 4-5 hours on skin but up to 12 on clothes with an incredible projection. 10/10

  2. Colerfith

    It opens with mango and a touch of caramelised orange, which is why it smells sweet without being cloying. As it dries down, the mango and vanilla take over. It has a lovely trail and longevity: 4-5 hours on skin and longer on clothes. It gives me a vibe similar to Paris Hilton’s Heiress

    I loved it and found it original. Just be aware to use it within three years as it oxidises and goes off. I’m speaking from experience

  4. nina1969

    The opening is very fruity; I detect a lot of mango, followed by passion fruit, before evolving into a tropical aroma. On my skin it has good fixation and longevity. I adored it

    What a delight for everyday wear. It smells like summer and holidays, those hot mornings straight out of the shower. For me, it’s the best in Zara’s entire Bloom collection. The opening seems a bit acidic, but it quickly turns into delicious tropical fruits; I don’t detect the vanilla or hibiscus from the name. It’s super versatile, suits many ages, and isn’t tiring or overpowering. One of Zara’s best, alongside my beloved Fields at Nightfall and Orchid

    I feel it’s a blend of Loewe Solo Ella, My Way and Burberry Her

  9. Perfumadict

    I liked it a lot for everyday wear. It’s nothing original or out of this world, but it’s pleasant

  10. I think it bears a slight resemblance to the now discontinued Cacharel Liberté. They share caramelised oranges and mandarins

  11. Andrea perfumona

    I’m completely in love with this scent; a friend gifted it to me for my birthday, and I’ve worn it every day since. It’s delicious—fruity at first, then the dry down becomes sweet, vanilla, and amber. I at least detect a tropical hibiscus note, sweet, slightly indolic, and tremendously sexy. The twist is surprising: it opens with energising, fresh fruits before turning sweet and sensual, and as a bonus, it lasts for many hours on the skin.

    Absolutely love it! A friend gifted it to me for my birthday and I wear it every single day. It opens fruity and energising, but dries down to a sweet, vanilla note with that amber touch. I can definitely detect tropical hibiscus, something indolic and super sexy. The twist is surprising: from fresh to sensual, plus it lasts incredibly long on the skin.

  13. Candycandy40

    A good option from Zara: tropical, fresh, and with decent longevity. People say it’s similar to Loewe Solo Ella EDT. At first, it reminds me a lot of Loewe, but as it dries down, this one is fruitier while Loewe feels sweeter due to its cotton candy notes. Ideal for summer, it deserves the hype and is at an excellent price.

    Good Zara option: tropical, fresh, and with good longevity. They say it reminds people of Loewe Solo Ella EDT. At first, yes, it does, but when it dries, this smells fruitier and Loewe sweeter due to the cotton candy note. Ideal for summer, it deserves the hype and is at an excellent price.

  15. karenyave

    I bought it for work because it smells of fresh, exotic fruit, something different from the typical fruity scent. The trail and longevity are moderate. It’s perfect for informal occasions; it doesn’t seek attention and goes unnoticed, yet I like it.

    Beautiful fruity aroma with moderate longevity. Worth it because it feels much more summery.

  18. To me, it smells very artificial and sweet. On my skin, the passion fruit dominates, and as it dries down, it becomes vanilla with over-ripe fruit. The longevity is good, but it’s that kind of scent that gives me a headache. P.S.: It bears no resemblance to Loewe Solo Ella EDP.

    Excellent scent, very similar to Cloud, though this one is a bit more clingy. However, considering the price and performance, it’s a top gift for a woman who loves that Cloud DNA.

    I’ve had many disappointments with Zara, but this is a total hit. It’s a fruity, fresh, and sweet bomb, very much a summer scent. The longevity is modest, lasting up to 6 hours, but it works brilliantly for layering. Recommended.

    I bought it blind because I like hibiscus, but I’ve never detected it. What I do smell is orange and vanilla. It’s a pity I can’t find it at Zara. People say it’s like Loewe Solo Ella, but I’ve never tried it. It’s a unique aroma I’ve never experienced, although its only flaw is the longevity: it lasts a breath and needs reapplication, though more than other Zara perfumes.

  24. Kittykat

    Delicious aroma; the 90ml bottle wasn’t enough, so I bought the 180ml one. There are a few points: many complain about longevity, but for the price, you can’t ask for more. It claims to be an EDP but barely reaches EDT levels, so don’t expect beast mode performance. It smells great for the price and in terms of performance, some designer scents come out losing; it’s an excellent purchase if you like tropical scents for the heat. My only gripe is that it has no hint of hibiscus.

  25. I really like this perfume! I liked it as soon as I tested it, but I truly fell for it when I wore it more at home. It’s fruity, fresh, and sweet, yet wearable even in summer. What a pity it doesn’t last long; it projects well at first, perhaps for an hour, then fades slowly and needs reapplication. I bought it in early January and it’s already half gone; it’s been my favourite summer scent and will be finished soon. That’s a good thing, as I have about 20 other perfumes for the heat, and this is the one I’ve used the most.

  26. I just love this perfume! I liked it as soon as I tested it, but when I applied more at home, I was utterly delighted. It’s fruity, fresh, and sweet but wearable even in summer. What a pity it lasts so short; initially, it projects very well for about an hour, then it fades slowly and needs reapplication. I bought it in early January and it’s already half gone; it’s been my favourite for summer and is finishing up. That’s a good thing because I have about 20 other perfumes for the heat, and this is the one I’ve used the most.
