What wearers say
“Smells like Kirke in the opening, in the dry down amber notes take over, overall horrible performance and synthetic smell that causes headache after macerating for a month and half. I will use this as air refreshener. Might be the batch that I got since other people had positive experience.Don't expect more for 20$.”
“One of my go-to Zara frag for day time use. I think this is by far the best longevity compared to others from the same series collection. I like the sweet and fruity scent from this frag. It’s not cloying, just smells very candylicious. I’ve never tested Erba Pura but many people said this is the dupe. For the price, this is really worth buying.”
“The Erba Pura of Zara!I can say this is 90% similar to Erba pura by Xerjoff and I’m surprised by the good performance of the perfume. Sillage and longevity above average, performs better than most of Zara fragrances.With the current price, this is a very good deal, and so far, the best Erba Pura alternative I have came across.This new collection from Zara in general is a big improvement.Zara, now we’re talking!”
