Man Silver Zara Eau de Toilette

The burst is immediate and aggressive—bright lemon and green notes collide with black pepper, creating an almost acrid freshness reminiscent of crushed herbs and citrus zest under fingernails. The lavender emerges quietly, attempting to soften the assault but largely overwhelmed by the citric-peppery punch.

By the second hour, the composition settles into something considerably more wearable. Cardamom introduces a warm, faintly sweet spice that anchors the fragrance, whilst orange blossom and jasmine create a delicate floral bed beneath. The synthetic character becomes more apparent here, lending an almost soapy, slightly artificial quality to the florals.

The base reveals itself as predominantly vanilla-forward, with cedarwood and patchouli providing wooden scaffolding that feels thin and ethereal rather than substantial. Amber adds a soft sweetness, and the fragrance becomes increasingly powder-like, settling into skin as a faint, somewhat generic sweetness that lacks any real distinction or staying power.
