Terre de Bois by Miller Harris was launched in 2000 and crafted by Lyn Harris, the brand's founder. This Chypre fragrance opens with aromatic and citrus notes that create a fresh, invigorating start. The heart of green and herbal elements adds a natural, earthy quality, while soft spicy and woody base notes ground the composition in warmth and depth. Terre de Bois is neither overtly floral nor overly sweet, making it an unisex choice that reads as both modern and lasting.
