Halston Halston Z is an Eau de Toilette launched in 1998. The fragrance opens with Lavender, Coriander, Bergamot, and Lemon, settles into a heart of Lily Of The Valley, Jasmine, Juniper, and Neroli, and dries down to a base of Vetiver, Sandalwood, Rosewood, and Oakmoss.

Our verdict on Halston Z: Favourite

A throwback to the golden age of masculine scents, Halston Z is a polarising beast. Some find it generic, others praise its rugged charm. If you're after something classically complex with a crisp, earthy edge, it's worth a punt, especially for the price.

Its fresh, aromatic and woody character makes it versatile for casual and daytime wear, though its potentially 'rugged' and 'manly' nature, as described by some reviewers, might be a bit much for formal events. The decent projection and longevity reported means it can perform well in various settings without being overwhelming.

About

Z by Halston opens with a vibrant, zingy hit of bergamot and lemon, sharpened by a clean, aromatic lavender and a hint of spicy coriander. As it settles, a heart of green juniper, fresh lily of the valley, and rich cedar emerges, giving it a distinctly masculine and slightly rugged feel. The dry down is a sophisticated blend of earthy vetiver, warm sandalwood, and mossy oakmoss, rounded out by subtle ambergris, creating a lasting impression of classic, natural freshness.
