Noble Palo Santo

Noble Palo Santo by Zara presents a distinctive woody fragrance with an opening of kumquat and black pepper, delivering a fresh, spicy energy that evolves into a refined palo santo wood drydown. The scent is best described as elegant and masculine, with a subtle citrus lift that keeps it from being too heavy or smoky. The performance is stable and moderate, with longevity that suits daytime wear, though sillage remains intimate and close to the skin. The new formulation is less intense than the original 2019 version, resulting in a more restrained, refined character that some find more appealing, while others miss the bolder projection. It shares thematic similarities with Aventus and Vibrant Leather but stands on its own as a unique, quietly sophisticated wood scent.
