If you love fresh, zesty, sweet delectable fruits
( tangy tangerine features strongly here) blended with something classic like rose you will adore this. This is my absolute favourite of my cheapy fragrances. This is not synthetic smelling like many cheapies, its nicely blended. Truth be told its in my top 8 of all time and I can be a real fragrance snob, veering strongly toward niche.
You could do a lot worse than to drop $15-$20 on this. This is a slightly grown up version of The Escada range of fruity summery bombshells (rockin Rio, Ibiza Hippie, Taj Sunset) .
To me it bares ZERO resemblance to Light Blue by D & G.
Lasting power not great but the fragrance instantly uplifts.
At this price you can freely spritz it any time of the day.

It’s very summery perfume. The citrus is very strong but after a while it blends with other notes. I wore it on my holiday at the beach and it was the perfect scent. Every time I smell this it reminds me of the beach. It’s a shame that it doesn’t last longer.

A great summer scent…if only it lasted longer! Dear Zara, I’m ready to pay more to get something that lasts a little longer than about thirty minutes.

In the same family as Light Blue by Dolce and Gabbana. Smells clean and fresh but like all Zara fragrances very poor longevity.

When I first tried this it felt strangely familiar to me, until I came here to review it and I saw that it reminded people of “Light Blue” by Dolce & Gabbana. That’s what this smells like! It really is like a combination of D&G’s “Light Blue” and “Island Fantasy” by Britney Spears.
I got this fragance with its lovely box and there are more notes listed in it. The notes are as follow:
TOP: Pear, mandarin, grapefruit.
HEART: Rose, lily of the valley, ylang-ylang.
BASE: Cedar, musk.
So looking at the notes of this one and “Light Blue” you’ll see what gives this the simlilarity: I think it’s the cedar (which is not listed here but it’s listed in the package of the perfume).
So this feels like a fresh fragance, that opens with the citric notes and a dash of pear. The citrus never really disappears, but as it dries down (rather quickly) you get a hint of a fresh floral tropical vibe, which must come from the lily of the valley and the ylang-ylang, since there’s no rose noticeable here at all.
The cedar is always there from the start, and it doesn’t go away. And I guess there’s a bit of musk, but this is not really a musky scent to me either.
Like I said before, this also reminds me of “Fantasy Island”, because it feels like a fresh tropical scent, but not in the coconut kind of way, more like a fresh tropical summery fragance.
Overall I really like this. The bottle is lovely and so is the fragance. It’s a cheaper version of “Light Blue”, but it doesn’t smell cheap at all. Longevity is pretty good but it doesn’t project much after a couple of hours, so it stays pretty close to the skin. I’d say this is perfect for hot weather, when you don’t feel like wearing a heavy scent. I’d say the “Los Angeles” name fits this like a glove!

Very fresh and citrusy , more like grapefruit on me then any of the fruit listed .
In the end just a faint whiff of Rose and it’s a true Rose nothing sweet or synthetic.
Very simple scent that be great on very hot summer days – a bit boring to me though .

Citrus + sweet. Should be good for summers. I like it 🙂
Also, picked Zara Tulle along with this. It’s not reviewed here but its a very affordable n good fragrance.
