شيسيدو

عطر زين أو دو برفان عطور نسائية

I was born with a great nose. Just sayin. My grandmother was perfume obsessed and had every old classic imaginable in the 70s when I was a child. Shalimar, Lanvin, Youth Dew, White Shoulders, Tabu, etc. I always loved perfume. But the one I fell instantly and forever head over heels in love with was Zen. The smoky, incense-y floral, without a hint of cloying sweetness, transported me to another world, and I have never forgotten it! My taste in fragrance has stayed true to its origins. I still love woody incense with a hint of floral and wet forest floor. Please, please bring back the original. It was just too gorgeous to remain just an unforgettable memory!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this perfume! I actually smelled it first in a Shiseido store in Chicago, where I started to buy it then, but hesitated because perfume often "turns" on me if it has a lot of synthetic fragrance oils in it. I wore the sample the sales lady sprayed on me all day and it never turned - a sign of a high quality product! I came home and ordered it immediately. It is crisp and clean, with a hint of citrus and creamy flowers. I have received so many compliments while wearing this perfume. I never put on much, as I believe in not having my perfume proceed me into a room. Yet people always seem to catch its delicate scent. I will be a forever customer of this beautiful perfume.

I have Zen for years and am a long time Shiseido skin care and makeup lover. My beauty shelf is 100% Shiseido. I sprayed this once and couldn't believe how bad it is. Like flowery vomit. As this was my Xmas gift to myself on a limited budget this year makes itneven more disappointing. Shamefully bad. I looked at other reviews and realize that I am not the only one. Get back to the lab and fix this abomination!

Why my cap is made in WOOD and not like im'n your photo ? Inacceptable and WRONG publicity... The Zen perfume doesn't hold a long time... desappointed... Please send me the GOOD CAP ! Nicole Simard

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think the smell is nice and light, but I'm not a fan of the bottle. It's a lot of glass and looks ugly in my opinion.

Not to get caught with semantics, this is not Zen fragrance. If the intention was to modernize it and/or bring it to the tastes ... noses ... of the new millennium generations, it would have been polite to give the name a new twist. Perhaps, Zen Gold. For those wanting the original scent of contentment with the earth and all it entails -- okay, just trying to sound like the spirit of the meaning of Zen -- this is not the fragrance that brought success in the 60s to now. Please, please bring back the real Zen and rename the imposter.

I've been using this perfume for many years and it used to be my absolute favorite. Unfortunately, I have to say that the quality has noticeably declined. The scent is still pleasant, but it's no longer what it used to be. The longevity has significantly decreased, and the richness and projection that once made it stand out are now barely there. It's disappointing to see such a beloved fragrance lose its character over time. I truly hope the brand considers bringing back the original formula or improving the current version

So do you know how they say that music sparks a memory? Well, fragrances do also. My mom is 72 and has has worn the original Zen perfume and cologne since it was first introduced... sometime in the 70's. This is not the original. I purchased it for her birthday and Christmas like I have done for years.. the last few online only since it was not sold in stores any longer. As soon as she opened it she said "This is not my Zen." so I tried to explain that you discontinued her original fragrance to this one but that the name stayed the same... Why? she asked... "this is nothing like MY ZEN..." I have no idea, I replied. And then she cried. SHE LOVED THAT FRAGRANCE!! So now I have a new perfume.. until it's empty.. I will not be purchasing it again. So sad that mom will not smell like mom any longer.
