What does The Solid Earth (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Paraguayan petigrain opens with a citrusy, green freshness. Rosewood, patchouli and black pepper form the heart, bringing the spice and the woody feel. Amyris and vetiver leave a dry, smoky earthiness underneath.

Longevity is good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall and winter, though summer and spring have their share. It is chosen mostly for leisure and evenings, and it leans masculine. Loewe Esencia Elixir and Zara Legend Iron have a close profile.
