ZARA Perfume Dupes that Smell *Just* Like Designer Scents

Undoubtedly among the best perfumes for women, Zara offers scents, packaging, and lasting power to rival high-end designer brands. However, it can be tricky to pick your new favorite high street perfume without smelling it in person. "Buying a fragrance online is notoriously challenging because of the obvious limitation – you can’t smell through a screen," says Master Perfumer Ruth Mastenbroek, who suggests using fragrance families as a guide. 

Perfume is extremely subjective, which is why we tested a wide range of Zara fragrances with a variety of different notes to select the best from each fragrance family. As well as seeking out the best fruity, woody, fresh, and floral perfumes, we also paid attention to factors like lasting power and potency to determine which budget Zara scents really are the best. Figuring out how to choose a perfume to suit your taste can be tricky, but with the help of this thorough guide, picking the best Zara perfume has never been easier.
