What's the nicest Zara perfume please?
I'm on a limited budget buying for a lady in her 60s. Heard lots of good things about zara perfumes, any recommendations please?!

I have bloom and it's lovely. 3 separate people commented on it yesterday.

Thanks so much!
I have ordered myself the two cherry ones recently (not got them yet) but I don't think she'd go for that type of smell.
I'll go with bloom thanks for the help!

Depends what they like really. Perfume is so subjective.

Is is lightly bloom & not orange bloom?

That is very true but its a quick last minute gift & all I could think of that doesn't cost a fortune. Otherwise she likes real gold jewellery but it's way out of budget.

I had Copper Orange for a while, which I liked. I think it’s technically a men’s one but it smelled pretty unisex to me. I’m not sure they sell it any more though; Zara changes its fragrance selection every few months.

Do you know what else they like perfume wise?

@LaTangerina lightly bloom

I absolutely love Ebony Wood which is a really woody (obviously!) musky fragrance. I love it for winter but tend to use more florally scents for spring and summer.
Would one of their candles be an option? Not as personal as perfume but same ballpark.

I've worn Gardenia for years

Is that the one that's like black opium? Or did I imagine that one was like that 😄

Thanks for the help ladies I ended up ordered 2 of the double packs of 30 ml perfumes ... so hopefully there's one or two she likes & she's a few to choose from! :)

Zara perfume is fantastic, I've stopped buying expensive perfume for myself and just use theirs.
