ZARA
SUN KISSED BANANA

2025

banana
almond
meringue

‘Eau de toilette. An exotic fragrance that combines the floral softness of banana with the warm touch of almond and the enveloping creaminess of a meringue accord. A distinctive and sophisticated scent with a sweet and tropical profile.’ – Zara

To me, this one has absolutely nothing to do with banana; not even remotely. Which is not extremely shocking, given that Zara has a history with naming fragrances without the scents matching.

From start to finish this is a sweet, powdery vanillic scent. Not really fruity, but definitely also missing the ‘sun kissed’ vibe; there’s not really any brightness here, just mushy sweetness. Performance isn’t there either.

I was hoping for this one to be my favorite from the Sun Kissed Banana, Strawberry Dress, Pistachio Butter trio, but it’s not (spoiler, it’s not even my least favorite either though).
