The Terroni Replacement I Have Been Looking For
This smells like an old hunting lodge that has been lovingly brought back to life. The old wood beams and furniture have been treated with polish and wax. There is a fire going in the fireplace and you can smell the smoke and the sugars in the wood caramelizing. The owner relaxes in front of the fire, drinking a dark spiced boozy drink. This is a spicy smoky wood scent that would almost feel hot except the little bit of citrus and floral lighten it. The smoke isn't overbearing, its like like a fresh log catching fire. Not the smell of unwashed clothes after a bonfire. There is something the feels boozy in this fragrance, possibly due to the combination of spice and resinous notes.

This fragrance has everything I love about Orto Parisi's Terroni but without the harsh synthetic notes. This fragrance didn't induce a headache and it isn't super beast mode. Even after washing my clothes, I can smell Terroni on them. It can take a while to get rid of the scent.

This fragrance had good projection, it lifts off the skin and creates a scent trail behind you. It also lasted 7 hours on my skin. There are a few options available for purchase starting at 3 10mL Travel Sprays for $185, 5 10mL Travel Spray refills for $175, and a 100ml for $310. This is a major improvement over Terroni (in my opinion) and that is $167 for 50ml. Not sure if I love this scent enough that I am willing to spend over $300, but if I got the opportunity, I would trade in my Terroni for Capua.

Very similar to Terroni/Cuoium by Orto Parisi
Well, I'm seeing similarities with many perfumes in this brand that are starting to stop being coincidence.
In this one, I almost find a more than reasonable resemblance to Terroni by Orto Parisi.
There's also Black Caviar similar to Acqua Di Sale by Profumum Roma, Imperium similar to Ani/Hacivat, Trajan similar to Baccarat Rouge 540... and we'll see how many more similarities there are when I finish testing the discovery set.
If it cost $40 a bottle and was from Arabia or a cheap $20 brand... everyone would talk about "clones", but this comes in a good bottle and costs $220-350?

Well, let's go with this "inspiration" from Terroni, which since it has a leathery base I'll say that it almost looks more like Cuoium after a while of application. Also, here it lacks a little of that earthy point, of "dry" volcanic earth.
And that's it, there's little else I can say.
It doesn't offer anything beyond what the previously mentioned perfumes have already done.

Unfortunately, in terms of performance, as is usual in this house, it doesn't stand out at all. It's not bad, but I demand more projection and sillage from a perfume that aims to be niche.
I would also demand more originality than it has.

Mostly smells of balsamic woody tones like Xerjoff's Amber Star. Has a peppery open, resinous-smoky structure and maybe even some nuttiness.

Smoky, ambery woods. Green cypress, fresh pepper, plus smoke that fades to rich resins. The immediate aftermath of a wildfire.

After a messy opening it turns into a nice black afgano type fragrance, in my opinion Fortis is a far superior blend in the same profile

After a brief spicy-green opening, this thick and challenging, smoky earthy-woody Winter fragrance, settles to a smooth resinous-woody base.
