Review: Bois Soleil

INFO

“Bois Soleil” by Zara 80ml EDP


HOW DID WE GET HERE?

I ordered this online as a backup bottle thinking it was the same as the Bois Soleil from Zara’s women’s section. I soon discovered that these are different scents.


HOW DOES THIS FRAGRANCE MAKE ME FEEL?

This scent smells like it is an introvert. It’s the colleague at work that seems to have a wall up and doesn’t warm to people easily. She arrives, does her job, and goes home, with minimal comment. But if you catch her at the right moment, her soft tuberose notes peek through her usually strong and woody exterior.


RATING

3 – MIST Opportunity: I’m torn with my rating of this fragrance. While the Country Exclusives collection served as a turning point for Zara attempting niche-quality scents in terms of smell (sadly not longevity) when it first launched in 2020, it is not something that stands out as unique within the fragrance realm now.
