An alien posing as a beautiful woman (Scarlett Johansson) lures lonely men to their fatal destiny in this surreal adaptation of Michael Faber’s novel. It is a powdery, subliminal, cold fragrance—an alien musk. If I wear too much, I get dizzy; it’s (very) synthetic with large notes of dusty metal. Now… if I apply five soft sprays scattered over the body, it smells like a second skin: soft, clean, metallic, synthetic, virginal, like skin from another world. How should an angel smell? Or how Scarlett Johansson should smell in Under the Skin.
An alien assumes the form of an attractive woman and leads lonely men to their fatal destiny in this surreal adaptation of Michael Faber’s novel. It is a powdery, subliminal, cold fragrance, an alien musk. If I wear too much I get dizzy; it’s very synthetic with large notes of dusty metal. But if I apply five soft sprays over the body, it smells like a second skin: soft, clean, metallic, synthetic, virginal, like skin from another world. How should an angel smell?

I agree with the above. It has that metallic touch of freshly washed cutlery and a river scent. It’s a pity it lasts so short; on my skin at 24 degrees it only lasted three hours, projecting a trail. If they release an Eau de Parfum, it will be a huge success because the scent is so well-crafted. At $18, it’s definitely worth trying.
It’s incredible; it smells like 1999 skyscrapers, with that mineral, metallic, effervescent air of late-nineties waters, a salty-vodka tone with woody-musk undertones that are hard to find today. The longevity is dreadful, half an hour and it’s gone, but for the price it’s worth reapplying constantly because it’s delicious—a super-refreshing mineral cologne like sucking river pebbles. It makes you think of those techwear fashions from twenty years ago: sheer white tank tops, cargo trousers with ankle gathers, sporty fanny packs, no piercings or tattoos, healthy skin and zero adornments. They say it resembles Creed’s Silver Mountain Water; I have no idea as I haven’t tried it, but certainly this Soft Haze is like diving into a river of polished metals and woody aspirins. One of the few things Zara has got right for my taste, alongside Zara Man (2000), Exclusive Oud, and Waimea.
I agree with the previous one. It has that metallic touch of freshly washed cutlery and a river earth scent. It’s a pity it lasts so short; on my skin at 24 degrees it only lasted three hours, projecting a trail. If they release an Eau de Parfum it will be a resounding success because the scent is so well-crafted. At $18, it’s well worth trying.
What a find; it smells like 1999 skyscrapers with that mineral, effervescent touch of late-nineties waters, a mix of salty vodka and wood that today costs a fortune. The longevity is a disaster, an hour and a half and it’s gone, but for the price it’s worth reapplying non-stop because it’s delicious—a super-refreshing cologne like sucking river pebbles. It reminds you of those technical fashions from twenty years ago: sheer white tops, cargo trousers, fanny packs, and zero adornments. They say it resembles Creed’s Silver Mountain Water; I haven’t tried it, but this Soft Haze is like plunging into a river of polished metals and woody aspirins. One of the few things Zara has got right for my taste, alongside Zara Man, Exclusive Oud, and Waimea.
