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.

About

Zara San Francisco opens with yuzu and pepper, a zesty citrus start with a spicy edge. The heart is violet, which adds a soft, slightly powdery floral touch and calms the opening. The base is vanilla and cedar, giving a creamy sweetness and a dry woody backbone. It moves clearly from sharp to soft to warm and woody. The overall feel is fresh, modern and refined, masculine in direction, and it works well for office wear and casual days when you want something clean without being plain.
