Is Etra by Etro considered a masculine or feminine fragrance?+−
While categorized for both men and women, the scent occupies a neutral middle ground. The spicy pimento and sandalwood provide a traditionally masculine edge, while the milk and rose notes lean more traditionally feminine, resulting in a balanced unisex profile.
How does this fragrance perform in terms of longevity?+−
The community consensus suggests moderate performance. It typically lasts through a standard workday but does not have the "forever" staying power of heavier ambers or modern synthetics. It is better suited for those who prefer a scent that stays close to the skin.
Are there any other fragrances that smell like Etra?+−
It is often compared to Lou by Sans due to its similar almond-like sweetness and spicy woodiness. While it is sometimes whispered about in the same breath as the discontinued Le Feu d'Issey, many collectors argue that Etra stands on its own with a more transparent, less avant-garde character.
