Ursa
Ursa by Tiziana Terenzi is an unisex extrait de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with nutmeg, elemi, plum and rum, moves into patchouli, frankincense, incense, tobacco and vetiver and dries down to vanilla, leather and oud. Expect around 10 hours of wear, and it projects strongly.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Nutmeg Warm, woody and slightly sweet. Cosy without being gourmand.
- Elemi Peppery resin with a lemon-pine lift. Bright and dry.
- Plum Dark, wine-like and slightly stewed. Autumnal.
- Rum Boozy, sweet and warm. Adds a grown-up edge to gourmands.
Heart
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
- Frankincense Bright, peppery, church-like resin. Lifts and cools a fragrance.
- Incense Smoky, dry and meditative. Adds gravity to anything.
- Tobacco Sweet, dried and honeyed. Nothing like a cigarette.
- Vetiver Dry, earthy, smoky grass root. Smells like soil and citrus peel.
Dry-down
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
- Leather Smoky, dry and a bit animal. Can be a new jacket or an old saddle.
- Oud Resinous, medicinal, barnyard-adjacent wood. The most expensive note in perfumery.
