About Gaia
Gaia by ZENO: An Oriental Woody Fragrance for All
Gaia, created by ZENO in 2012, is an oriental woody scent made for men and women alike. It brings together warm spices, rich woods, and a hint of leather.
Perfumer Zeno Ulin has developed a layered composition, starting with a fresh, peppery top and settling into a deep, sensual base.
The opening of Gaia features pink pepper, bergamot, lime, and mint. This crisp, slightly piquant introduction soon evolves into a more profound heart.
Saffron and incense sit at the core, joined by spices and rose. The rose lends a gentle floral touch that tempers the heat of the spices, resulting in a refined balance.
The foundation is where Gaia truly shines: sandalwood, patchouli, leather, vetiver, amber, musk, and oud wood. These notes coalesce into a warm, woody, and faintly animalic dry-down.
With accords like warm spicy, woody, aromatic, citrus, amber, leather, musky, green, powdery, and fresh spicy, Gaia offers a multifaceted experience that keeps revealing new angles.
Zeno Ulin manages to fuse classic and contemporary elements, producing a bold yet elegant fragrance for those who appreciate complexity.
This perfume will appeal to fans of oriental woody scents, regardless of gender, and to those who enjoy a fragrance that changes and develops over time.
All in all, Gaia by ZENO is a skilfully crafted perfume with an intriguing evolution and a lasting sillage. A superb pick for anyone seeking a scent with real character.
