Zara Night II is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2017. Night II opens with Bergamot and Lemon, settles into a heart of Lavender, and dries down to a base of Amber and Cedar. Zara's Night II carries a Favourite verdict, a green-led wear.

Zara Night II is a divisive scent: some rave about its fresh, alluring aroma, often compared to designer fragrances, while others dismiss it as a fleeting, generic disappointment. The one thing everyone agrees on is its abysmal longevity - you'll be reapplying this one constantly.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer
Also Works:
Fall Winter

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport

Its fresh and inoffensive character, combined with weak projection and short longevity, makes it suitable for office wear or gym use, as many reviewers noted it won't be cloying. However, its poor performance renders it less ideal for formal events or dates where a more lasting impression is desired.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Citral Geranial from Lemon

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Lavender Lavandula Hybrida Oil from Lavender

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

A crisp burst of bergamot and lemon kicks things off, bright and inviting, then quickly settles into a heart of aromatic lavender. The base is a gentle blend of warm amber and subtle cedar, offering a soft, woody dry-down that lingers close to the skin. It's a fresh, clean scent with a touch of sweetness and a powdery finish.
