7.6

Nóvaya Zaryá

Fresh · Green · Sweet

Nóvaya Zaryá Chypre / Шипр is a fresh, green opening that settles into a powdery, woody chypre, aimed at men. It wears at a moderate level for both longevity and sillage, neither staying close to the skin nor filling a room.

Oakmoss and labdanum in the base set the chypre structure, leaving a woody, powdery and slightly sweet finish.

Mystère / Secret

7.5

Nóvaya Zaryá

Floral · Sweet · Spicy

Nóvaya Zaryá Mystère / Secret is a sweet, smoky women's fragrance where amber and patchouli are softened by violet.

Nóvaya Zaryá

Floral · Sweet · Synthetic

Nóvaya Zaryá Galion d'Or / Золотой галион is a sweet, spicy and woody scent made for men.

There is no season or occasion data, so all that can be said is that it reads masculine. The top has bergamot, mandarin orange, cedar and violet, so citrus and a floral touch arrive together. In the heart, nutmeg and sandalwood pull it towards a spicy, woody line. The base of musk and amber softens the sweetness and settles into a warm footing. Floral, earthy and leathery tones also run through the accords.

7.6

Nóvaya Zaryá

Floral · Green · Spicy

Nóvaya Zaryá Sardonyx 2 / Сардоникс 2 is a leather, floral and woody fragrance made for women. Its notes read as one whole rather than a top, heart and base.

The leathery and animal streak gives it a dry, chypre-like air. Overall it leans dark, heavy and a little severe. Lôr Animal Doux and QueenB Taif have a close profile.
