Andevalo was born under the blazing sun of western Andalusia. A land where cistus shrubs exude a thick, resinous gum saturated with heat and light. This extrait is built around a trio of labdanum extracts, expressing their full ambery depth. Strawberry CO₂ extract, along with raspberry and black cherry accords, bring a pulpy, sensual brightness, quickly absorbed by supple leather and mineral warmth. Enveloping dark woods and patchouli leave a dense and long-lasting trail of smoke and dark sweetness.

Isleta is an extraordinary fragrance that shines with the generosity of summer. This bright green floral weaves a delicate dance between fresh grass and sultry jasmine sambac, savory fig and aromatic white tea.

Early morning, October 1175, Calabria

The cool night air dissipates under the sun’s first rays. The ripe citrus in the field has absorbed all the water of the morning dew and the farmers are ready to work on the misty green fields, speckled by the bright yellow of the citron. They leave their woody cabin and take a deep breath…

Perfumer: Michèle Saramito

A new addition to Bloom’s portfolio, an elegant cologne with sweet sun kissed citruses, honeyed neroli and amber background.

With classic formulas it’s the quality of the ingredients that matters. Marie Jeanne might be a new perfume house, but it’s founded by a young perfumer from a family connected to Robertet for several generations.

Robertet is a bit like De Beers of the fine natural perfume materials - matières premières, for decades they have been dealing with the finest, purest and most precious stuff a perfumer can dream of.

This is Marcelle, a classic elegant cologne but with highly likely the best bergamot from Italy, grapefruit from Spain, neroli from Tunisia and petigrain from Paraguay among other notes in the formula.

About Golden Fog by Zara

How does Golden Fog differ from the fragrances listed here?
Golden Fog combines citrus notes with saffron and black leather, giving it a unique spicy and leathery depth. Most fragrances listed share its citrus base but differ in supporting notes, ranging from floral and woody to sweet and fresh accords, without replicating the leather or saffron.
Are all these fragrances suitable for both men and women?
Many of the fragrances listed are unisex, featuring citrus aromatic profiles that work across genders. However, personal preference and individual scent perception should guide selection.
Which notes should I focus on if I like Golden Fog’s leather aspect?
Golden Fog’s leather note is distinctive and not commonly shared in the listed fragrances. To find a similar feel, look for perfumes with warm, rich base notes like amber, tobacco, or sandalwood, though these will not replicate the exact leather character.
