African sunsets described in vivid color through the warmth of Kenyan spices, leather and oud. Aldehydes bring a cooling breeze, contrasted with scorched-earth woods and resins.

From Jijide
A hymn to life awakening in the intense colors of the African sunset.

Terra tells the story of the African sunset, when the heat subsides and the evening coolness brings back the desire for conviviality. Warm scents of Kenyan spices, leather, heated skin and oud are contrasted by fresh aldehyde notes that bring clean scents and evoke the arrival of evening coolness. In contrast, the scorched earth smells of Virginia cedar, guaiac wood and Kenyan vetiver. A fragrance full of contrasts, celebrating conviviality and African nature.
