Teriaq, created by Quentin Bisch, puts caramel, bitter almond and apricot alongside honey, rhubarb and flowers, with leather and labdanum in the base. The choice is sweet fruit and honey with a leather contrast, rather than Tobacco Vanille’s tobacco-and-cocoa direction. This is the original Teriaq, not Teriaq Intense.

Great for
Someone who wants honeyed sweetness with leather and tart fruit rather than a simple vanilla gourmand.
Not for
