Zino Davidoff

Parfumour’s Interpretation of Davidoff Zino Davidoff

Zino Davidoff launched in 1986, composed by Michel Almairac as one of the most distinctive classical masculines of its decade. A polished aromatic woody built around bergamot, lavender and sage, a jasmine, rose and patchouli heart, and a base of cedar, sandalwood and vanilla, it has remained in continuous production for nearly four decades.

The Story Behind the Scent

Our interpretation follows the same polished path: a bright aromatic opening, a floral patchouli heart and a warm woody vanilla drydown.

We build it as a long lasting Eau de Parfum with a high perfume oil load, made in the EU, so the classical character carries through the evening.

How Our Version Compares to the Original

We build ours as an eau de parfum with a high perfume oil load and sell direct, so you get the same classical aromatic woody character with strong projection and longevity.
