Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Lui Rochas EDP
This discontinued gem is a love-it-or-hate-it affair, but fans rave about its unique blend of citrus and warm woods. Expect a truly opulent men's scent that sadly, you'll have to hunt down.

Our Verdict - Terra EDP
This one is a divisive beast: some hail it as the ultimate masculine scent, raw and primal, while others dismiss it as a cheap imitation. If you're after a bold, earthy statement, Terra delivers, but it's not for the faint of heart or those craving mass appeal.

Season and Occasion Fit

Lui Rochas

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its noted longevity and strong sillage, along with its rich, warm accords, make it more suited for evenings and special occasions. The blend of citrus and woody notes also lends itself well to casual wear, although it might be a bit much for a formal office setting.

Terra

Seasons

Best For:
Winter
Also Works:
Autumn

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Occasions

Also Works:
Date Casual

Its potent projection and intense, earthy-smoky character make it far too overpowering for an office setting and unsuitable for sport. It suits casual wear for those who want to make a statement, and can work for dates if you're aiming for an edgy, intriguing persona, though it's certainly not a crowd-pleaser. Formal events would be a push, unless you want to smell like you just emerged from a volcano.
