What does Terre de Bois smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both moderate: not a skin scent, but not one that fills a room either. Most voters pick spring, summer and fall, and it matters less in winter. Leisure, daily wear and the office are the most named settings. Half of the voters read it as masculine, while some find it feminine.

Juniper, lemon vervain, galbanum and sage give it a green, citrusy freshness. Vetiver and patchouli pull it down into an earthy, woody base, spices and amber soften the edges, and cotton candy adds a faint sweetness. Close profiles include Hermès Terre d'Hermès (Eau de Toilette) and Ormonde Jayne Vetiveria.
