About Aaron Levine
Aaron Levine by Zara: A Woody Oriental Fragrance for All
Zara has unveiled Aaron Levine, a new unisex scent from the woody oriental fragrance family. Launching in 2026, it offers a blend of zesty freshness and warm, resinous depth.
With an average rating of 3.88 out of 5 based on 43 ratings, this new release is already attracting attention. Its main accords are citrus, white floral, amber, balsamic, woody, smoky, and fresh spicy.
The fragrance opens with a grapefruit top note, giving a bright, slightly bitter spark. This crisp opening leads to a heart of orange blossom and incense, which pairs soft florals with a more mysterious, resinous quality.
In the base, Peru balsam and sandalwood create a creamy, balsamic, and woody feel. This foundation gives the scent a long-lasting, enveloping trail, with a gentle smokiness that balances the sweetness of the resins.
The composition is quite versatile: grapefruit and orange blossom add freshness, while incense and balsams take the fragrance into deeper territory. It can work for daytime or evening wear, depending on how generously you apply it.
As it's a recent launch, there are still few reviews, but the average of 3.88 out of 5 suggests a favourable reception. Woody and balsamic notes become more prominent as the scent develops, while the citrus opening fades with elegance.
Zara presents this as part of its designer-led collections, combining affordability with a contemporary edge. Aaron Levine is a complex yet wearable fragrance for those who want something distinctive without compromising on comfort.
This fragrance is aimed at men and women who appreciate contrasts: fresh and smoky, floral and balsamic. It is particularly suited to temperate or cooler weather and for moments when you want to make a lasting impression.
Aaron Levine by Zara is a worthwhile addition to the brand's range. Its balance of freshness and depth, along with a warm and enveloping sillage, makes it a recommended choice for fans of woody orientals. The number of reviews is still small, but the overall verdict is positive—and the accessible price only adds to its appeal.

Старт чистий і переходить у приємний сандал. Стійкість порівняно з парфумами Zara набагато краща, я б сказав, що це нормально для дизайнерських, від 4 до 6 годин, якщо дуже розтягувати. Це найдорожчі парфуми від Zara, це помітно. В інтернеті вони поступово розкуповуються, і настане момент, коли вони зникнуть, і нам бракуватиме цих 40 мл. 9 з 10. Вдала покупка.
Одні з найкращих від Zara на сьогодні. Зазвичай я не розумію хайпу навколо Zara, бо всі вони мають схожий відтінок або дивне сухе звучання. Ці на висоті, шкода, що їх уже зняли з виробництва. Якщо можете понюхати, рекомендую на 100%, а якщо маєте, зайдіть до Louis Vuitton і спробуйте L’Immensité, він дуже дуже схожий.
Aaron Levine x Zara приємно здивував мене. Це не типовий комерційний аромат з торгового центру; за цим флаконом стоїть справжня мистецька пропозиція. Старт: Починається з яскравого, дуже свіжого цитрусового вибуху. Грейпфрут виконаний винятково добре: він натуральний, шипучий і має ту кислинку, яка миттєво пробуджує чуття. Це, без сумніву, один із найчистіших стартів, які я пробував у цьому бренді останнім часом. Сухий шлейф (Справжній сюрприз): Те, що починається як невинний цитрус, еволюціонує у щось набагато складніше і темніше. У сухому шлейфі аромат робить поворот на 180 градусів: з’являються дуже виражені гіркі ноти з майже тваринним відтінком, що надає несподіваної текстури та характеру. Ця еволюція дає глибину, яка межує з нішевою парфумерією, повністю віддаляючись від універсального. Стійкість і ціна: Хоча ціна за 100 мл дещо вища, ніж до того, до чого Zara нас привчила, якість композиції виправдовує інвестиції. Відчувається “піднесений” аромат із власною ідентичністю, який не намагається когось клонувати. Солідний, несподіваний варіант із великою індивідуальністю. Якщо ви шукаєте щось, що ламає лінійність традиційних цитрусів, і вам подобаються шлейфи з характером, це обов’язкова покупка.
Весь Мадрид цим пахне. Він простягається від Turathi Blue (Tygar, можливо?) з тим стартом грейпфрута до Borealia Shine For Him, із тією екстра-деревно-гірко-морською базою… На шкірі тримається дуже довго, але на одязі, навіть якщо його прати, це неймовірно. Я б сказав, що для літа це занадто, бо з ним відбувається те саме, що з Megamare (та подібними). Він надто потужний.
The most horrible perfume I have ever tried. It is super oily, like the fraiché ones, but the smell is unbearable, and the worst thing is that it does not come off even when washed with soap. It really has been a while since I smelled something so disgusting.
Hello, this is my first review right after registering on Fragrantica. In this case, I think Zara, with this perfume that belongs to the drop launched with designer Aaron Levine, is going more for a designer perfume with a price that would be around 40 or 50 euros per 100ml, rather than the budget fragrances it has been releasing up to now. That difference is noticeable in the quality of the perfume; it is on a level with any perfume you can find in perfumeries like Druni or Primor.
SCENT: The perfume starts with citrus, which reminded me of the citrus in Italian-style perfumes. I don’t know why, but they reminded me of those in Dolce & Gabbana Pour Homme. After 20 or 30 minutes it moves to orange blossom, which seems to me a very, very notable note and of very good quality. After 1 or 2 hours, I don’t remember, it starts to blend with something a little more incensed, but very faint; it just gives it a little touch. Towards the end, at 5 or 6 hours, a balsamic smell is added, and this time it does take over the perfume more. At this stage, the perfume is perceptible if you smell close to the skin, but not right on the skin. To finish, an ambroxan remains, which starts soft, with a very, very slight reminiscence of orange blossom that eventually goes away, leaving only a less special ambroxan.
LONGEVITY: While I am writing this review, it can still be felt right on the skin, and 20 hours have passed since I applied it very lightly to my hand. It seemed to me that, with its olfactory profile, it has good longevity. It is not a beast mode, but it is up to the standard of many designer fresh scents. It will last you a working day, for sure. Or at least, on my skin.
CONCLUSION: I am not a professional; I have only been following perfumes for 2 years, so I cannot detect qualities or originality very well. On the website it appears as sold out, but some shops still have it. In my case, it is exactly what I was looking for: a white floral citrus leaning towards the masculine. It is a scent that reminds me of my homeland and I love it, so it has come as a perfect fit. It also has the plus of having an incensed balsamic base, which is something I love in perfumes. I recommend it; in my case, as I say, it is everything I was looking for, but I am aware that it is not a perfume that is going to change anyone’s life.

One of the best from Zara so far. Normally I don’t understand the hype around Zara, as they all have a similar touch or a strange drydown. This one is up to scratch; it’s a shame it has already been discontinued. If you can smell it, I recommend it 100%, and if you have it, pop into Louis Vuitton and try L’Immensité; it is very, very veeery similar.
The opening is clean and evolves into a pleasant sandalwood, the longevity, compared with Zara’s perfumes, is much better, I’d say it’s normal for designer, between 4 and 6 hours at a stretch. It’s Zara’s most expensive perfume, you can tell. On the website it’s selling out and the time will come when it disappears and we’ll miss those 40ml. 9 out of 10. A success.
