Zara W/END till 3:00 AM by Zara

I love it; it’s a very good and fairly linear fragrance: it comes out and stays on pineapple with lavender. At first, it smells fresh, like mint and pine (I’m obsessed), I suppose it’s the cedar. The performance is random: some days it lasts little, others (like today) it lasts almost 12 hours; if I touch my neck, I smell my fingers, but on clothes it seems I applied it hours ago. Recommended for mild weather and casual wear. My bottle is from 2021. Scent 10/10, Performance 8/10, Price 10/10, Versatility 8/10.

Like the other reviews, I bought the two-pack. It’s my signature scent, mind you; it’s linear but that doesn’t mean it’s bad, I love it. I see it as sweet, the pineapple stands out a lot; it’s not THAT sweet, but it’s a scent I like too much. I use it more in autumn/winter, day and night; it’s super versatile. 10/10 if you have doubts, go to Zara to smell it; it’s almost a blind buy.

It’s acceptable; it’s good but in small portions; if applied abundantly, I consider it even annoying to the nose. I like it, but its application should be two sprays and nothing more. Despite that, its projection and longevity aren’t many. I recommend it for young people going to school or even to an open-plan office, however not for going out; if they still use it for outings, let them be night ones.

It’s a simple, fruity, and aromatic fragrance; despite being fruity, its profile isn’t so sweet or cloying; it’s more aromatic and citrusy. The violet and cedar are subtle and don’t feel strong. It’s a very good scent; pity the longevity, as it dies very soon, max 4 hours and you have to reapply, but for the price, I don’t think you should ask too much. In short, it’s a casual, punchy, pleasant, fresh, and slightly addictive fragrance, with limited sillage.

One of my favourite Zara scents. I bought it because they said it was similar to the XS (the discontinued tall black bottle); I tried that and fell in love, thinking it would drive women wild. It’s a sexy scent you can’t stop smelling. I discovered this budget-friendly Zara version to see if I could get the same feeling I had with the Rabanne one. It’s sweet, fruity, and clean. Without a doubt, it has the Black XS style, allowing for some differences. In the Rabanne, the pineapple is sharper and stronger than in this 3 AM, plus the ingredients aren’t of the same quality, but of course they don’t cost the same. It’s linear and simple: pineapple with lavender and citrus hints. I highlight its price, scent, and versatility; it suits any season and time of day. The downside is the performance: it lasts six hours on my skin but projects little (one and a half hours). I don’t see it for breaking the night in the club like the XS; in a place with many smells, it feels weak. However, for going for a drink with friends or something more intimate, I see it as functional. Scent 9/10, Longevity 7.5/10, Projection 6.5/10, Price 8/10, Overall 7.75/10.

(Black bottle 2019 version) At first, it seemed ordinary, but I’ve grown to love it. It evolves very little, leaving a sweet, ripe pineapple scent that lasts all day, around 6-7 hours on my skin. In the dry-down, I don’t detect any florals, just a hint of lavender at the base. After three hours, it remains fruity. Then cedar emerges, woody and fresh, adding cleanliness and structure. It’s highly versatile; if you control the sprays, it works perfectly for daytime in the office, conveying neatness. It has a slightly sugary note, but it’s not gourmand. I recommend it, especially if you grab it in a pack with its sibling Till 8:00 PM, which is sweeter, akin to Invictus. Cheers, fragrance lovers!

This fragrance and Greenery are my favourites from the brand and my favourite scents on my skin.

It’s a gem for the price. I wish they sold it in the Zara pack with Till 8:00 PM. The opening smells of tangerine peel and pineapple. It lasts well for 8 hours on my durable skin. The downside is that it’s linear; it doesn’t evolve at all from the moment you apply it until it fades. It’s versatile; although people say it’s for evening wear, it also works during the day.

At first, I didn’t get the idea… but now there are nights I even use it to sleep.

Excellent fragrance; if it were up to me, I’d wear it even to the loo.

Zara, Weekend until 3 AM: as the name suggests, it’s for partying, youthful, and very wearable. I thought Zara perfumes didn’t last long, so I decided to try it. Ten sprays and what a projection! Very potent, with super citrusy and sweet pineapple and lavender; I barely noticed the cedar. It lasted over 10 hours, excellent performance. Today, with just five sprays, it feels richer. The name is accurate; ideal for night outs. If you want to wear it during the day or at the office, apply less and you’re set; it’s versatile and charming, leaving a distinct trail, easy to pick out. First day and first compliment. The good: longevity, trail, and price. The bad: it’s linear, with pineapple and lavender at full strength for eight hours. Given the price, it will save me in a pinch several times. Well done, Zara.

I’ve tried countless fragrances and this is simply sublime. So simple yet wonderful. You’ll hardly find more notes than pineapple and lavender, but what a way: it’s in my top list of most appreciated scents. At £10 with 8 hours on the skin and notable projection for 2 hours, what more could you ask for? It’s pleased everyone; among women, it’s devastating. It has the same vibe as Black XS, though they aren’t identical. Scent: 9.5, Longevity: 8, Projection: 7, Sillage: 7, Compliments: 9, Versatility: 9, Price: 9. If it projected and lasted longer, it would be perfect. Just a note that in the final phase, if you don’t like lavender, it almost smells only of it and can become tiring, associating with some cleaning product.

My partner owns it and it’s exquisite: masculine, citrusy, sweet, and summery.
