Terra – JIJIDE – with saffron and oud

Top notes: Kenyan spices, olibanum (incense), leather, aldehydes
Heart notes: Saffron, Virginia cedar, guaiac wood, Kenyan vetiver, warm skin accord
Base note: Amber, patchouli, oud

Terra is a scent of warm earth and evening air, built on contrasts. Aldehydes give a clean, cool feeling at the start, but it is immediately met by spices, incense and a clear leather tone that makes the scent physical and present. The heart comes with saffron and dry wood, with vetiver and guaiac that give a smoky, sun-warmed feeling; the skin accord makes the whole more intimate than “perfumed”. The base is deep and long-lasting with amber, patchouli and oud that give a dark finish without becoming suffocating.
Wear it when you want to smell powerful but controlled, perfect for evenings and dinners. It also sits wonderfully in colder weather, when spices and wood are made to feel like real warmth.

Fragrance family: Oriental/amber; spicy and woody
