Terre Fertile No.18
Fragrance notes
Character
Terre Fertile No.18 opens with a bright, slightly bitter citrus mix that feels like walking past a grove after rain. Bergamot, grapefruit, and mandarin bring a clean lift, while pink pepper adds a sharp edge that keeps the start from feeling like a standard summer splash. As it settles, iris and rose step in with a soft, powdery character that sits close to the skin, grounded by black pepper. The heart is where the fragrance finds its balance, sitting between fresh and polished without leaning too hard into either direction.
The base is a dense, warming blend of sandalwood, cedar, vetiver, and cashmere wood, with tonka bean and vanilla smoothing the edges. Leather and smoke give it a rugged undertone, while ambroxan and nutmeg add a dry, spicy finish. It suits cooler days when you want something woody and refined, the kind of scent that fits a wool coat and a quiet street. The powdery iris can feel a bit too prominent for those who prefer their woods dark and resinous, and the leather never quite reaches the bold, rugged place it hints at.
