Pros & Cons

  • ✅ I wore it on Christmas, sprayed on skin and my turtleneck sweater (5-6 sprays). On Easter I put the same sweater on and didn't have to reapply but I did anyway 😅
  • ✅ AS A SANDALWOOD LOVER WITH A SANDALWOOD SIGNATURE SCENT THIS IS ABSOLUTE HEAVEN TO ME!!!!!!!! ZARA I DIDN'T KNOW YOU WERE THIS GOOD???????????????????????????????????????????????????? Probably their best scent ever ever after amber linen!!!!!! This is strong!!!!! Long lasting! Beast mode! Beautiful! Sandalwood at its peak! I am so in love!
  • ✅ NOBODY can tell me that this isn’t Valentino born in Roma Extradose DNA . I’m wearing Extradose on one wrist and Zara Red Temptation Sandalwood on the other and the similarity is striking. Except I paid over £100 for the Valentino and just £20 for the Zara.
  • ✅ I've never been so surprised after trying a perfume. Zara does have a good scents, but nothing groundbreaking. This is a decent masterpiece. I don't know if Zara even knew this would be such a bomb, I'm telling you, it's a masterpiece.
  • ✅ This is very good, it's also beast mode, lasts forever and projects. Very unisex spicy sandalwood
  • ❌ I loved it at first but now there’s something bothering me. not bad just not an everyday scent. as it drys down leans more masculine. 6/10
  • ❌ Smells very close to ambre Samar absolus alegoria I have both ambre is much richer with deep Tonka and amber this one’s good I like it a lot after washing my hand I realised the dry down ain’t that awesome smell like a hospital no joke
  • ❌ There's an odd coldness in the opening amidst the sweet smoke. Reminiscent of Ariana Grande offerings such as R.E.M albeit more intense and with a way more obvious menthol note. Lasting power seems slightly lesser compared to those, ironically.
  • ❌ On first sniff, I liked it because it smelled like tea to me. After wearing it was too strong for me and a bit too much. Had to return it.
  • ❌ i loved it at first but now there’s something bothering me. not bad just not an everyday scent. as it drys down leans more masculine. 6/10
  • ❌ Gris Charnel copy but without the sparkling backbone the og has. Smells meh, late drydown is a little candy like.
