What Does Next Sequence Smell Like
The scent of Next Sequence by Zara exudes a commanding presence, leading with a strong woody accord that immediately captures your attention. The fresh undertone is equally assertive, paving the way for a fresh experience. You'll notice a distinctive synthetic streak running through the scent, adding a modern edge to the olfactory profile. This is punctuated by resonant green notes that lend a sense of natural vitality to the fragrance. A noticeable touch of resinous aroma surfaces to add depth. The key notes that come into play include Akigalawood®, cedar, and cistus, without any one note dominating the composition. The Akigalawood® provides a unique woody-spicy character, while cedar brings a more traditional woody depth. Cistus offers a subtly sweet and resinous edge. The overall scent is fresh and vibrant while maintaining a rich, woody depth.It is, however, worth noting that despite its interesting blend of notes, some may find the synthetic elements slightly overpowering.
Review of Next Sequence
Next Sequence by Zara, released in 2020, is a men's fragrance that we believe provides a moderate scent experience. It's designed for men and boasts a blend of woody and fresh notes, touched up with a hint of spice. The scent, which includes akigalawood, cedar, and cistus, is undeniably masculine and leans toward the synthetic side.
Despite these robust notes, it doesn't scream for attention as it casts a modest scent trail. Its longevity also errs on the modest side, meaning you might need to reapply throughout the day to maintain the scent.
In terms of occasions, we found Next Sequence quite versatile. It's a solid choice for daily use, be it for a day at the office or an evening out. It also fits well into a sports or leisure context.
The fragrance's strength is its suitability for most seasons—spring, summer, or fall. However, if you're looking for a powerhouse scent or long-lasting perfume, you might find Next Sequence a bit lacking. Overall, for its price, it meets expectations but doesn't quite go beyond.
