Etra Etro by Etro
For: women and men Designer: Etro Olfactive Group: Oriental Woody
!The Etro Etra perfume is a fragrance for women (to emphasize their strength) and for men (to reveal a female side of their character). An intensive start of strong rosewood note presents the intensiveness of this fragrance; spices, cedar and geranium represents its masculine side, and sandalwood, musk and vanilla sooths the first impression with its calming accords. Coriander, cardamom and rose wood are at the top. Jasmine, rose, geranium, red pepper, cedar and sandal form the heart. The base is composed of musk and vanilla. It was created in 1999.

A clean spicy opening, cardamon and rosewood and so on. Clean, little spicyness, little sweetness and... empty? Nothing really happens? Where is the rest of this fragrance? And the personality? I can't find any edge here at all...
A lot of surface and very overpriced IMHO. Or maybe I just don't want to smell like this? Unisex frags may just not be my cup of tea.

These Etro frags seem to have a strong following, but based on my first, and to date, only exposure to the line--Etra Etro, I'm not "gittin" it.
Maybe it's the unisex thing. That often doesn't work for me. All I can say is that one time out with this one was one time too many.

I love LE FEU and aswell Poivre Piquant (which are quite similar) - so there is no other way but to love this, too.
It is refined,classy but at the same time uncomplicated parfum to wear without offending anyone.
My only reason not to buy it so far is: it is quite costly and at the same time no staying power at all. up to 2 hrs(max.) - I would expect more for that price.

This is indeed similar to Le Feau d'Issey, but lighter and more woody, even lightly smoky. I like it better actually. It didn't sour on me. The florals are light, pleasantly sharp and clean smelling. The spices are not overwhelming, but blend nicely with the whole composition. I didn't notice any vanilla, but rather cedar and musk toward the end of this fairly long-lasting fragrance. This is an exceptional light fragrance that would be ideal for office wear on either a man or a woman.

I have never tried Le Feu, so I can't compare.
The scent itself seems quite light, but it's not that airy at all. Beginning is subtle sweet/sour florals with rosewood and lots of cardamom. I think if I could compare to Burberry's The Beat (only the cardamom theme...)
Later it develops into geranium and pepper duet and it's quite enjoyable, however I think I need more originality.
For office use I think it's very nice.

I retested it today - was going through some samples and found Etra.
If Le Feu was way too strong for me, then Etra is just the thing. It is fresh in the opening, cardamom is very much there...somehow there is a resemblance to a fresh scent of a mixed forest. Then the mystery begins. I am not sure, but it seems like patchouli in there - wet, moist earth under the cover of fallen leaves.
It`s a perfume for Galadriel.

M-m! I love it. It's a Scent from the capital letter. Nice spices and wood and a bit sweetness on the background. Light, balanced, and quite enough lasting. I'm sure I'll by another bottle after mine ends.

I havent tried Le Feu d'Issey but I would love to :)
I find similarities between ETRO Etra & L'Artisan Parfumeur Poivre Piquant. To me they have in common the milkiness and spices and especially black pepper. The distinct difference opens up on base notes as there I feel quite a lot of vetiver which is non existing in Etra. I love both fragrance but L'Artisan probably a little bit more :)

This is the best of all the ETRO- fragrances (according to my opinion).
Indeed, there is a resemblance to the sadly discontinued Le Feu D'Issey, but the fragrance is not that intense. A friend of mine wears it - and gets a lot of compliments for it. It is very pleasant, equal to any occasion and at the same time exclusive, because it is not available everywhere and no common high-street fragrance.

This is a little "sister", the lighter version of Issey Myiake "Le Feu d'Issey" for my nose. I can smell bitter sweet milky fruits and tobacco smoke in the bottle, but not so intensivelly as in Le Feu d'Issey.
Very nice fragrance for casual, office wear. Worth trying!
