Fashionably London captures the citrus-spiced opening and floral heart of Carlisle reasonably well, though the guaiac wood's distinctive warm, smoky-resinous character is less pronounced in the Zara interpretation. The overall composition feels slightly lighter and more linear, with the base notes lacking the sophisticated depth and woody complexity that defines the original's signature profile.
Zara's version has reduced longevity and a thinner base projection, with the guaiac wood notably softened in favor of generic woody accords. The mid-stage floral development is similar, but the fragrance lacks the original's balanced complexity and distinctive woody richness.

βThe opening is too much, at least for summer. But after 1h it becomes softer and more beautiful. I cannot say if it smells like Delina, as I honestly only tried it once, but it does remind me a lot of Narciso Rodriguez For Her EDP after a few hours of wear. I'm testing a sample, so let's see how it goes the more I try. But for the price, I really like this one. It lasts around 5h with amazing projection on my skin. After that, it still there for a couple of hours, but with less projection.β
βTried it on 29 March on my jacket and it still carries the fragrance to this day (2 weeks later), so it is very long lasting on fabric. Whenever I catch a whiff of the smell, although they do not share any notes other than "rose", it reminds me of TF Rose Prick. As I loved the composition and longevity (on skin and fabric), I bought a 100 ml bottle today, which is quite good in terms of value compared to Rose Prick, which unfortunately suffers from longevity and sillage although it's a very overpriced perfume.β
βOne of my favorite from Zara. π«ΆπΌ Very classy and unique scent.Has a bit Delina vibe, but definitely not a dupe, as it is really a scent on its own. Dominant rose yet very musky. On my skin is quite long lasting, like 3 hours, on clothes even longer. Projection is also very good, I got a lot of compliments and definitely was noticable every time I was wearing it. Would pass definitely for autumn-winter but i did wear it even in summer. For people who love rose-musk woody scents then I would def recommend to give it a try. BUT its is not for everybody and not for blind buy.β
