What does Terra Profonda - Black Fig & Basil smell like?

The notes read as a single composition: Italian black fig gives a soft fruity side, basil carries the green and spicy edge, blond woods build the woody ground, and sea salt keeps the whole thing airy. The accords agree, with fresh and green leading while spicy and earthy stay in the background.

Longevity and sillage are both rated moderate. Voters pick it most for leisure, daily wear, business and evenings, with some choosing it for sport and nights out. It suits anyone wanting an easygoing, unheavy masculine scent. Diptyque Virgilio and Bois 1920 Cannabis have a close profile.
