Pana Dora Aqua de Dora EDP

Description

Aqua de Dora is a bright citrus-aquatic Eau de Parfum that captures the crisp serenity of a Scandinavian coastline. Created by perfumer Ibrahim Al Zoabi for Swedish house Pana Dora and released in 2021, it opens with sparkling grapefruit and lemon zest, then settles into a soft, woody-musky drydown of cashmeran and sandalwood. Reviewers describe it as a refined, well-balanced fresh scent in the same aquatic-citrus family as Tygar DNA: versatile, clean, and effortlessly wearable.

Scent Character

• Woody: 62%
• Fresh: 25%
• Sweet: 12%

Translation: a fresh citrus burst that dries down over creamy woods, with just a whisper of sweetness from fig and chestnut. Clean and modern rather than loud.
