Prima Terra

Fendi · 2024

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Fendi Prima Terra is a fresh, green unisex fragrance built around oakmoss, Sicilian mandarin orange and Moroccan rosemary; it has been discontinued. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, though the ratings come from few voters and should be read loosely. It sits comfortably between masculine and feminine, reading as a true unisex. Citrus and rosemary lead: the Sicilian and Calabrian mandarins add brightness, while the Moroccan and Tunisian rosemary bring a green, spicy freshness. Oakmoss and woody notes ground it in an earthy base, with leathery notes leaving a faintly dry trace behind.

Theorema Leggero

7.9

Fendi

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Fendi Theorema Leggero is a fresh, lightly sweet women's fragrance that sets citrus and floral notes on a soft woody base; it has been discontinued. Longevity and sillage are both moderate, so it neither stays close to the skin nor fills a room. Its fresh, floral character suits everyday wear, though the number of votes is small and this picture is tentative. It opens with mandarin orange and pepper, then moves into a floral heart of freesia, lily of the valley and pink pepper. In the base, sandalwood, cedar and musk close it with a powdery, woody warmth. Citrus and fruity sweetness run through the whole scent, while the spice stays in the background.

Fan di Fendi Leather Essence

8.1

Fendi · 2014

Floral · Spicy · Woody

Fendi Fan di Fendi Leather Essence is a leathery, spicy fragrance for women, with leather softened by rose and vanilla; it has been discontinued. Leather forms the backbone, with rose and mandarin orange beside it. Tonka bean, vanilla and musk build a sweet, warm base, while elemi resin adds a spicy, slightly resinous edge. The floral and woody accords sit under the oriental character, and the leathery side comes forward. Longevity and sillage are rated good, though that rests on only a few votes. The leathery, sweet and spicy build leans towards women's wear. Chanel Égoïste and Francesca Dell'Oro Page 29 have a close profile.
