Review of Ancestral Papyrus
Ancestral Papyrus by Zara, released in 2021, is a green, woody, and slightly citrus-centered fragrance designed primarily for women. However, it's not limited to the female audience, as its scent composition is also appreciated by a significant percentage of men.
Although it has a complex scent type, the green and woody notes dominate, adding depth and character to the perfume. The light touch of citrus adds a refreshing twist without overpowering the core scent, making it well-suited for summer, spring, and fall.
Perhaps one of its strong suits is its longevity. Ancestral Papyrus clings on for a substantial duration. Its sillage, on the other hand, is moderate, implying that it is not an intrusive perfume; it gently surrounds without overwhelming.
It's a versatile fragrance, fitting for leisure and daily activities, and even business settings. However, its performance in winter and during night outs might not be as exceptional, given its scent profile.
In conclusion, Ancestral Papyrus can be a worthwhile addition to your perfume collection if you are on the lookout for a predominantly green, woody perfume with a moderate sillage and commendable longevity.
Please note, individual experiences may vary as scents are highly subjective and can be perceived differently from person to person.
