Now I feel sick
Tellus means earth. I would translate eau arborante as "swagger." Fortunately, I rarely get sick from perfume.

Poor Yorick I knew him. One day he lay down in a puddle and stayed there for half the day. A muddy puddle. He smelled of earth and his aftershave was rotting on his head, while his feet at the other end were competing with some foot deo. Certainly a very funny man but now dead and Hamlet holds his head while he declares that he kissed Yorick often. Now I feel sick
And I can't keep my arm far enough away from me when I'm writing.

Therefore very quickly: Sillage= too much, durability= too long. Otherwise I like patchouli and soil, but here is still mixed with nauseating flowery aftershave lotion. At least on me. You might smell a lot better on you. Ew. I... have to... now... go... quickly... wash up.

You can use it instead of emetics. Easier than sticking your finger down your throat. Unless, of course, it smells a lot better on you than it does on me. Also suitable for performances of Hamlet. Otherwise, I can't see any other use. *run out*

A new hope
The setting sun was already close over the horizon as the last stale light of the day filtered unpromisingly through the dirty windshield of his car. It was not a good day for Tellus. One of those ominous days that would have been better off never happening. If only he had behaved differently just this once. Blinded by the sun, his last shred of hope melted away. His fondest wish to be able to turn the clocks backwards was denied him, of course, for there was no way back! What seemed forever and ever was, at that very moment, long faded past. Farewell is a soft word!

To recharge his batteries and clear his senses, he sought shelter and refuge in the forest. From time immemorial, forests have been places of inspiration for Tellus. When he was at a loss in his life, he went there to ground himself and become one with nature.
He dug his hands deep into the steaming damp forest floor. The powerful aromas rose as the same, enveloping him in a cloud of comfort. He inhaled in deep and rhythmic puffs, feeling his lungs fill with the earthy air. With each successive breath, a bit of the burden of the departing day fell from him, and every cell of his shattered soul was ensnared by the soft warming moss of the ground. A waft of sweetly wilted leaves, united with the mycelium branching deep underground, wafted from the forest, wrapping around him like a protective cloak. On the majestic fir tree in front of him, dozens of resinous-scented beads sprouted from the bark. It was almost as if the tree was shedding the tears of this sad day for him. In the evening sun, the countless aromatic pine needles of the tree glistened, raining down on Tellus, giving him strength and confidence for a new hope...All will be well!

Liquides Imaginaires reveals greatness here. The creations of the label are not easy in stretches, want to be worked out and understood a bit. So also Tellus. Who feels overwhelmed by the harsh and intense opening, probably associates peaty, musty earth with it. The whole thing garnished with mushroomy subtle animalism. Extremely authentic, but special. Nevertheless, those who allow themselves to be guided with an open mind will experience the true beauty and uniqueness of this underrated phenomenon. Thus, Tellus creates through the totality of its components a human-like aura or projection, which seems incredibly familiar to us, and ultimately springs from our nature.

A heartfelt thank you for the generous sample to Gentilhomme

the "heart" of the forest
Forests, how fascinating in their diversity!
The bright, light deciduous forest: in spring, it is delicately greened, so that the first playful rays of sunshine make shimmering lights dance across the ground covered with snowy carpets of anemone blossoms.
The mixed forest: on hot summer days a place of welcome shade, yet so light and bright. A green-fringed, gurgling brook, the coolness of a clear lake, the spicy aroma of mixed undergrowth, clearings with flowers dancing in the wind Then in autumn, perhaps even oak-laden: fertile and damp-scented; the ephemeral is quietly announced. A rustling in the still loose, colourful foliage; some fir or pine cones lie around, from which birds and squirrels secure the fine seeds. There is a lot of activity in the forest - winter is already stretching its spidery, thin fingers.
Then the silence of winter: dark and bare, the trees stretch their branches towards the light, towards the sky, which is finally appearing. The snow mercifully covers everything that has been; but traces there show that there are still living beings on the way.
The forest is freezing and yet the rare sunrays produce fragile dark lace patterns on the snow-white down soft blanket - filigree silhouettes of nature!

Tellus" must have been created deep in the forest.
(Yes, I admit it: with the help of a lot of chemistry, born out of the laboratory! But isn't chemistry also rooted in nature?)
There, where in the darkness between the old giant trees and mysteriously spicy smelling undergrowth almost strange aromas unfold, this peculiar and yet fascinating scent takes me away Heavy moist earth scents, patchouli impregnated and almost forgotten; perhaps even a trace of too repellent, too natural, slightly repulsive.
Rotting, rotting wood and rich soft moss cushions cover the floor; balsamic fir and golden, distant amber scent is in the air.
Who might have put this large bouquet of white lilies here in particular? Who knows the way through this dark labyrinth to this enchanted centre of the forest?
Yesterday and today this was certainly not the case; the large ray florets are already slightly wilted, but for this very reason they spread their heavy, creamy sweetness, slightly reminiscent of decay.
"Tellus" takes you into the magical depths of an endless forest; where silence breathes and where the pulse of the forest is clearly felt.
Or is your own curious pulse beat, which suddenly reminds you: "Yesterday is gone, tomorrow has not yet come. We only have today, let us begin!"?

This fragrance touches me "quite miraculously", strangely: it is strange to me and yet familiar; it frightens and protects me; it is nature and chemistry - and a living mystery!
Not an everyday scent that can be worn "on the side". It is also too durable for that; it leaves traces - despite the name of the brand.

I'm really encountering something surreal here!
Something that I am trying to explain here with mere words: sorry, it couldn't be better!

For green skirts
When the head forester Mani visits us, he always brings a whole forest area with him at his dressing room.

His loden jacket always smells of the deep, deep pine - and his boots carry mossy earthy stuff into the parlor.

Slightly flowery sweetness hovers around it - but the forest aroma is outstanding.

To him as a nature-boy this tart woody aura fits - even if the peanut note turns into mud.

I can only imagine this earthy scent on nature-loving gentlemen - foresters and farmers.

A strong stature is also an advantage.

A guy like a tree can carry Tellus well - a guy like a shrub rather less.

I can't imagine this clearly masculine fragrance being used on ladies in a way that would suit them.

Erdiger Waldmuff sends his regards!
I like earth very much and above all nature, also those which can be bought in bottles. Since the scent is even called "earth", a sample of this scent was indispensable also because Sancti had already inspired me.
Perhaps because it is an Eau Aborante, the tester was used up on the very first day, because I find the scent slightly fleeting, but greedy.
I've always liked the smell of old cellars, slightly musty, best just wiped fresh and the water just dries off the floor. Add to that a good shot of wood and moss. The wood is not a classic fir now, but rather soaked wood. In the beginning the fragrance has a slight hint of retiree perfume, but luckily it fades away very quickly. So that the smell holds out longer I always apply it very generously, but then it also lasts 6-7 hours.
Conclusion: for me a beautiful and very special fragrance, but also special, not everyone will like it
