Tero is an aromatic, Gourmand, spicy scent created for Men and Women in 2022 by perfumer Carlos Benaim for Nishane’s Time Capsule Collection.
Review
This scent begins with the sweet essence of Salty Caramel, and dances a line between earthy and spicy with its balance of woods and peppers. It is perfectly blended to be worn by anyone, any time, any place, for any occasion. It is safe enough for the office, but is much better suited for adventures of temptation and intimate moments. It will work well in most all seasons, but may be too much in warm weather. It has been compared to both Kilian’s Black Phantom and Crush On Me by Unique’e Luxury.
Inspiration
Tero means “Earth” in Esperanto, an artificial language created in 1887 by L.L. Zamenhof, who believed it would become a second universal language used for international communication. It plays with the idea that we do not really see the place we call home anymore. It inspires us to stop and take in the beauty, uniqueness, and aromas of the world.
Notes
Black Pepper and Sichuan Pepper begin a delicate dance with Salty Caramel, boosting the warmth of this sweet essence. The Caramel can be felt within the heart of this scent, smoothing any sharpness that Patchouli brings to the party, and bringing energy with Cinnamon Bark. Vetiver Oil and Oakwood add an earthy element within the base, while Amber adds a delicate balance of warmth and depth, its natural sweetness ever-so-slightly lifted with the Caramel hints from the top.
