SOTD: Red Rodeo by Zara 03/04/2026
This is a relatively recent addition to Zara’s fragrance lineup, often associated with their outdoors themed collections. It comes across as a more rugged cousin to the viral Red Temptation, with a leather meets sweet profile. Red Rodeo is a Amber Woody fragrance with a touch of leather. It strikes a balance between modern sweetness and earthy textures.
The opening is surprisingly bright, with a juicy bergamot. In contrast, the strawberry is not a sweet candy scent; it’s more of a tart, airy fruitiness. The core is where the Rodeo name comes in. The leather is smooth think a new suede jacket rather than a smoky animalic hide. The fir balsam adds a green, slightly resinous forest like dept. The dry down is warm and fuzzy. Cashmeran provides a skin like musky texture, while the vanilla & amber keep it from becoming too harsh or masculine.
Although this is an edp concentration, as with most Zara bottles, the best performance you can expect to get is 4 to 5hrs on skin. You do get a nice scent bubble for the first 90min, but It isn't a room filler like Red Temptation, Best used in Autumn / Winter. Great for Night outs, casual autumn walks, or office wear.
