How does it perform?
From 65 community ratings, all out of 10.
Holds up through the day and fades gently toward evening.
Leaves a light trail and stays polite in a crowd.
Sits nicely on a shelf.
The price makes you think, so a small size is a smart start.

What does Zizan (Eau de Parfum) smell like?
It opens with juniper berry, pink pepper, clary sage and lemon, with bergamot and lime keeping the citrus side bright. The heart of jasmine, laurel and violet adds a soft floral touch, while cedar and vetiver give the base a woody footing, with musk and ambergris softening the dry-down.
Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall and spring, and it leans towards business and daily wear, with evening and leisure use also mentioned. Voters mostly call it masculine, with some seeing it as classic or modern. Penhaligon's Quercus and Pomellato 67 Artemisia have a close profile.
