What does Zahra (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

It opens with green and fruity notes that give it a fresh, sweet start. In the heart, saffron, rose and aldehydes bring a floral, spicy turn. Musky notes and oud weigh most in the base, where the oriental and leathery sides of the accords come forward, with a synthetic sheen running alongside.

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good, though both ratings rest on a small number of votes. It reads feminine, but the oriental depth from oud and saffron sets it apart from plainer florals. Lattafa Awraq Al Oud and Montale Aoud Safran share a close profile.
