Oriental לעומת Olympéa

Zara Oriental is well-regarded by the r/fragrance community as an affordable, long-lasting gourmand-oriental fragrance with good performance. Multiple users include it in their collections and appreciate its sweet, warm character, though some note it can be heavy in hot climates or feel cloying depending on personal preference.

The Essence Vault fragrances are widely considered low-quality despite social media hype. Community members report cheap construction, excessive alcohol presence, weak projection, and poor performance compared to even budget alternatives like Milton Lloyd or Eden Fragrances.
