Tero is a briljant scent, it’s not a gourmand, not a spicy nor a woody scent, it’s it all at the same time and it takes the best of all the different kinds. It opens as a peppery spicy scent, with sweet and opulent notes of cinnamon, sechuan pepper and slight pepper notes, going into a sweet-salty caramel with deep, warm woods and ambery base. To me it’s a hidden gem, it’s a masterpiece of perfumery by Carlos Benaim and lets the audience engage with a scent that is not purely 1 sort. It’s oriental meets west, warm woody, spicy scent of indulgence and opulence.
it comes to its own in winter as in summer, it depends on what vibe you want to get. Its longevity is out of this world, it gives projection, but not in an intrusive way. it’s elegant, bohemien and opulent at the same time and it takes you on a journey, as a masterpiece fragrance should.
The opening is super spicy, from the sichuan pepper. Dont dismiss it just yet, because when it opens up it is absolutely fantastic. Super rich and deep caramel, backed up by patchouli and a slight salt note. it is not overly sweet at all. Dark but approachable, it is perfect for a night out or date.
Very manly in my opinion, and the performance is insane. I usually only do max 2 sprays, and only 1 if im wearing it more casually. The trail this leaves is really really good, and it lasts forever. Dont spray it on your clothes at all haha. 10/10 for me

This is caramel in an unusual guise. The opening is a blend of salty caramel and pepper that practically pierces the nostrils. After a moment, patchouli and a hint of cinnamon join the caramel, giving the composition a more savoury character. The base is amber woody and slightly earthy, yet the caramel remains noticeable, although the overall impression definitely leans masculine. I wouldn’t describe this fragrance as a gourmand, there’s caramel, but as if stripped of its sweetness. I also don’t think it resembles Penhaligon’s Constance;as she is sweet, whereas Tero is not. Its longevity and projection are titanic, so I’d advise caution. It’s also not a scent that’s safe to blind buy.
