2015 · unisex

Liquides Imaginaires is a niche fragrance house known for unconventional compositions that prioritize raw materials and conceptual storytelling over commercial appeal. The brand's approach attracts fragrance enthusiasts who appreciate challenging, earth-rooted scents.

Tellus opens with a distinctly spiced and savory character, led by black pepper, saffron, and an unexpected mushroom note that immediately signals this isn't a typical fragrance. The spice settles into a rich heart of patchouli, oakmoss, and amber, where earthy minerals and woody undertones dominate. Vetiver and cashmeran add structure without sweetness. The base extends this grounded, slightly smoky trajectory with layered earthy notes that feel more soil and stone than traditional base chemistry.

This is a fragrance for those drawn to dark, introspective scents with genuine texture rather than polish. It works year-round but feels particularly suited to autumn and winter, or for anyone who gravitates toward The Mystic, The Homesteader, and The Cipher sensibilities.

Fragrance Notescommunity verified
Top · 0–30 min
angelica
angelica
Complex, musky, and slightly earthy, angelica root has a unique profile that sits between herbs, earth, and musk. It was historically used as a fixative and still adds a deep, rooty quality that grounds and extends other notes. Angelica seed is slightly citrusy; the root is darker and more complex. A note beloved by niche perfumers.
black pepper
black pepper
Sharp, dry, and immediately present, black pepper in perfumery is spice without sweetness, heat without heaviness. It adds edge to citrus openings and warmth to woody bases, creating contrast that keeps a fragrance interesting. One of the most versatile spice notes, comfortable in everything from fresh colognes to deep orientals.
mushroom
mushroom
Earthy, damp, and slightly umami, mushroom is one of the more surprising and sophisticated notes in contemporary perfumery. It adds a foresty, organic quality that feels genuinely natural rather than constructed. Best used to add intrigue and specificity to woody or earthy compositions.
red chilli pepper
red chilli pepper
saffron
saffron
The most expensive spice in the world has a leathery, honeyed, slightly metallic quality that is immediately recognizable. In perfumery, saffron adds a dark, animalic richness, it's the note that gives oud-rose fragrances their distinctive regal depth. A little goes a long way; too much reads as medicinal.
Heart · 30 min – 3 hrs
amber
amber
A warm, resinous accord rather than a single ingredient, amber is typically built from labdanum, benzoin, and vanilla to create a rich, honeyed, almost solar warmth. It's the quintessential base-note family, adding a comforting richness that makes fragrances feel complete. The difference between a fragrance feeling cold and feeling alive.
cashmeran
cashmeran
oakmoss
oakmoss
The defining ingredient of classic chypre perfumery, damp, forest-floor earthy with a faint bitterness and incredible complexity. Real oakmoss is now heavily restricted by IFRA regulations, which is why vintage chypres smell so different from modern ones. When present, it creates a raw, outdoorsy anchor that no synthetic fully replicates.
patchouli
patchouli
Dense, earthy, and darkly sweet, patchouli is the scent of damp soil and dried herbs with an almost chocolatey richness. It polarizes people because in high concentrations it's overwhelming, but as a supporting note it adds depth and longevity that almost nothing else can match. The backbone of countless oriental and chypre fragrances.
vetiver
vetiver
Earthy, smoky, and complex, vetiver root is extracted from a grass native to India and has a scent that is simultaneously rooty, woody, and slightly lemony. It's one of perfumery's great base notes: tenacious, unisex, and endlessly adaptable. A fragrance built around vetiver feels grounded and deeply confident.
