Zéos

8.8

Bochan · 2023

Fruity · Sweet · Synthetic

Bochan Zéos is a fruity, sweet gourmand scent in which cotton candy and strawberry sit on a powdery, creamy base, and it is made for both men and women. Zéos is rated strong for both longevity and sillage. Most voters wear it in spring and fall, then winter, with summer a distant fourth. It leans towards nights out, leisure time and evenings. Voters read it as more feminine than masculine, though a fair share see it as masculine. It opens with Egyptian jasmine, almond and strawberry. In the heart, cashmere and cotton candy soften it and sweeten it further. Cedarwood and musk in the base give the sweetness a light woody, spicy frame. The overall impression is a creamy fruit candy with a synthetic edge. Laboya Coya and Zara Cherry Gelato have a close profile.

8.2

Gritti · 2013

Sweet · Synthetic · Gourmand
