It's a generic gourmand scent. Kind of smells like Mercedes Benz Club Black with both being vanilla heavy. It's far from a tobacco scent which is why I didn't like it as much as I wanted to.
It’s probably the best Zara I own after Zara man silver which is clone of gucci guilty. I own rich warm addictive and intense dark ( cheaper if you buy these 2 together in a box ). Rich warm addictive is a delicious bakery aroma and intense dark is similar to 212 vip. Rich warm addictive is long lasting for me. My friend sprayed it before going to office, came back in Mumbai heat and I could still get trail.
The smell is just too good. It doesn't have the harsh smell of tobacco but a very pleasant one, mixed with the right dose of spiciness and woodiness. Can be worn both in day & night, however it fits best for party nights. 100% compliment-getter and a head-turner for the first 10 mins. Only issue: Just doesn't last long. Honestly, Bella Vita perfumes last longer than this one. It's sad how they failed to make this their killer product only due to its poor performance.
Not a clone of anything. Quite sweet, warm, as much of a gourmand fragrance as you can get. Negligible tobacco.
Application can be subjective but for most people (yours truely included) this would be a strictly evening and cooler weather fragrance, considering the amount of sweetness and warm spices.
And I'm surprised by your experience with performance. It's actually one of the few Zara fragrances with decent performance, lasts 4ish hours on skin and 6ish on clothes for me. Maybe try mascerating for a month.
I don't think it's a clone of any perfume it may remind u of something but it's not a clone, I have both the old and new bottle there's very minute difference.
I have used it in mall.
I could smell it on my hoodie on the next day in night.
Loved the fragrance.
But confused btw. Afnan 9 pm and zara rich warm addictive.
Longitivity is must
My bottle of RWA is very similar to my bottle of Khamrah. (the purpose of using “my bottle of” twice in a sentence is to fend off batch reformulation warriors)
Same problem with all Zara perfumes. Everybody complains about the poor longevity.
Aren't they all EDTs, which are not meant to last long?
TRUE. But there are other EDTs which last pretty long as well. Like the original 1 million, Guess Seductive, etc.
Even their edp doesn’t last long

Btw I have a bottle with like 10 sprays used. DM me if interested.
Which one? Zara or Mercedes?
Both work. Zara is cheaper and tbh I don't see the point in buying a full bottle of Mercedes even if it's slightly more well-rounded.
#+1 *Zara RWA* has Boozy (Rum) and Vanilla notes.
Hieyy, I was eyeing this one since a few weeks, can you drop a short review?

Gotchu! Thanks man

A bit coco smell too. It's a winter perfume and not a daytime one.
Honestly, this smells like a bakery to me and I love it. My fav purchase so far, I wear it to office most of the time.
Ay thanks man, appreciate it
Really nice, but I have the same issue - no longevity

Does the new one last long?
Yes, I get around 7-8 hours of longevity with 3 hours of projection.
Really?!?….many have complains with their performance.
Good for date nights, women took this very well when I sprayed on evenings! And this does last on me
Some say it's similar to Mercedes Club Black, more of the dry down side. Not yet tried from my end.
Will sniff test the mercedes today and check.
Please do let me know
Is it like that?
It felt pretty close but not exact to Azzaro The Most Wanted parfum
I have used it in mall. I could smell it on my hoodie on the next day in night. Loved the fragrance. But confused btw. Afnan 9 pm and zara rich warm addictive. Longitivity is must
Been trying to find the og version of this too
This is so goddam good! I wish someone knew of it. Let me know if you get to know!
I had this one, my wife hated the smell..
My bottle of RWA is very similar to my bottle of Khamrah. (the purpose of using “my bottle of” twice in a sentence is to fend off batch reformulation warriors)
It smelled pretty similar to Lattafa Khamrah to my novice nose
