Blanc Ensoleillé

Zara · 2023

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Zara Blanc Ensoleillé is a fresh, citrusy fragrance softened by the creamy sweetness of coconut milk, and it sits close to everyday wear. Longevity and sillage are both moderate, so it reads as a scent felt up close rather than one that fills a room. Most voters pick summer and spring, and daily and leisure wear lead the occasions, with business use following. It is classed as masculine, though votes split between feminine and masculine. Bergamot gives it a bright citrus lift, while coconut milk pulls it towards a creamy, gourmand sweetness. Woods and musk form a soft, woody base beneath. A floral touch runs through it, and a slightly synthetic sheen adds to its clean, airy feel.

Eau de Toilette

Laura Biagiotti Biagiotti Due Uomo Eau de Toilette is a men's fragrance from 2006 that sets citrus freshness against a sweet, spicy and woody base; it has been discontinued. Lime and aniseed give the first impression, while coconut milk softens and sweetens it. Sage, vetiver and patchouli build a woody, earthy backbone, and frankincense and opoponax add an oriental warmth. It also carries a synthetic edge. Voters rate its longevity and sillage as moderate, so it stays close rather than leaving a heavy trail. It is made for men. McGregor McGregor (Cologne) and Zirh Ikon have a close profile.

Fresh · Citrus · Green

McGregor Cologne is a men's fragrance that opens with sage and lime and settles on a green, woody base of vetiver and patchouli; it has been discontinued.

KoEptYs

7.9

Nejma · 2017

Fresh · Floral · Sweet

Nejma KoEptYs is a men's perfume that joins a fresh opening of pink pepper and bergamot to a sweet, creamy, resinous base of vanilla, coconut milk and benzoin. Longevity is rated strong and sillage good, though few people have voted, so these ratings are only a rough guide. There are no season or occasion votes, so nothing can be said about when it suits best. The top pairs pink pepper, frankincense, cinnamon and bergamot for a fresh, spicy start. In the heart, jasmine absolute, sandalwood, lily of the valley and violet leaf add a floral, woody softness. The base of vanilla, coconut milk, benzoin and patchouli sweetens it and settles into a creamy, oriental dry-down.
