By the editors · 2 min readThe opening of Terroni is a jolt—tart raspberry cutting through smoke like a streak of fruit acid on charred wood. This isn't sweetness for comfort; it's brightness used as contrast, sharpening the edges of what's underneath. Within minutes, birch tar takes over with its leathery, almost medicinal intensity, softened only slightly by benzoin's resinous warmth.
The base settles into something earthier and more composed. Vetiver and patchouli anchor the composition in soil and root, while guaiac wood adds a subtle creosote quality that never quite disappears. Vanilla appears not as gourmand cushioning but as a muted hum beneath the smoke, barely perceptible against the moss and cedar.
This is Alessandro Gualtieri's Orto Parisi at its most uncompromising—primal, deliberate, unapologetically dark. It wears like a second skin for those who prefer their fragrances raw and unpolished, more interested in presence than polish.
