What does Terra smell like?

It opens with a light freshness from bergamot and cypress, then caramel and labdanum take the lead in the heart, while amber and cedar turn that sweetness into a resinous warmth. Musk, jasmine and vetiver sit underneath, and the scent settles into an earthy, slightly smoky oriental feel.

Longevity and sillage are rated as good, though the number of votes is small, so this is only a rough guide. Its sweet, spicy build suits cooler weather best. It reads as suitable for both men and women. Emir A Walk on Dirt and Lattafa Oud for Glory have a close profile.
