Zara Golden Chai is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2026, created by Dalia Izem. Golden Chai opens with Cardamom and Cinnamon, settles into a heart of Honey, and dries down to a base of Amber. Zara's Golden Chai carries a Statement verdict, a warm spicy-led wear.

Divisive, to say the least. While some are raving about a photorealistic milky chai, others are smelling curry, animal feed, or even plastic. Sample first, this isn't a safe blind buy, even for Zara's price point.

This is a casual, cosy scent perfect for everyday wear, especially in cooler weather, due to its warm spicy and comforting honey accords. Its potential for lower projection on some and its unique, food-like character make it less suitable for formal events or the office, where it might be too distracting.

About

Imagine stepping into an indulgent spice market. Golden Chai opens with a bold, aromatic punch of cardamom and cinnamon, evoking a strong resemblance to a simmering chai latte. As it settles, a sweet, syrupy honey note emerges, softening the initial spice, before finally resting on a warm, comforting amber base that lingers on the skin.
