Claudia Raia Jafra — a 2016 fragrance that needs no introduction. By character, a feminine fragrance drawing from the east, wood, and floral families. Concentration — eau de toilette: exactly what it needs to be.
Made in the United States. Claudia Raia Jafra unfolds gradually, effortlessly, and with great refinement — a perfect choice for day or evening.
The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
A light and elegant fragrance with harmonious richness—the perfect balance between the depth of eau de parfum and the freshness of cologne
Fragrances for spring and summer unfold with light citrus notes, floral and fruity accords, filling the composition with freshness, airiness, and a feeling of carefree lightness on warm days
The note pyramid of Claudia Raia evolves as a layered story, where notes flow smoothly and sequentially. The signature of Jafra comes through from the opening to the final trail. No excess details, only what works, and the fragrance holds its character from opening to trail. Eau de toilette keeps a balanced rhythm of unfolding.
At olfactory-group level the structure relies on Citrus, Spicy, Wood and Whiteflower. The framework further includes Floral, Gourmet and Musk. At family level the fragrance belongs to East, Floral and Wood.
From the first breath you meet invigorating sunny first notes: Bergamot, Black Pepper, Lemon and Pink pepper.
In the central layer you notice Cedar, Lily of the Valley, Patchouli and Rose keeping a velvety sandalwood direction.
The accord architecture is shaped by these accords: Citrus, Floral, Musc and Wood forming a compact and readable structure. Secondary accord layers such as Spicy enrich the profile without taking over. The stylistic positioning is feminine, which sharpens how the fragrance is perceived.
In summary Claudia Raia holds a coherent structure — the opening sets direction, the heart develops the core line, and the final phase leaves a stable imprint. This is the type of composition best experienced on skin.
