What people who wear Zara Night Pour Homme III report, based on votes and reviews from a large fragrance community.
“Very cardamom heavy, complimented by amber and lavender. I don’t get much of the bergamot or cedar due to how powerful the spices are in NPH3.As someone who loves cardamom, this is an awesome fragrance to me, but it falls short in performance. This stuff barely lasts over 3-4 hours and has mediocre projection at best.I’d recommend this for dates or a night out as it’s very pleasant smelling and doesn’t project annoyingly loud by any means.”
“It's not bad at all, just decent. Opening is harsh and synthetic, at least for me. After it dries and lingers for a bit and is a lot more enjoyable though it is nothing mind-blowing. For the price, give it a shot if you like the combination of notes. It's pretty versatile, you can pull this off in the winter, spring and fall for sure. I wouldn't even be afraid to wear it on a cool summer evening if you live somewhere where it isn't super hot.”
“Decent value for money. It smells woody, powdery, slightly sweet, and subtly leathery. It doesn’t last long and eventually becomes a skin-like scent, but you can’t expect spectacular performance at this price point. A good pick for colder months if you're on a budget.”
