Drying herbs in a wooden house. Prominent mint. No, thank you.

Another simple and beautiful scent from Profumum Roma. With the simplest natural and high quality ingredients it is amazing how they create such evocative scents. In this balmy and light offering, there are only 3 notes: Mint, patchouli and white (synthetically derived) musk. The scent has an aromatic and light feeling and is perfect for sultry Spring and Summer days. It has a somewhat therapeutic feel to it and can can be classified as a unisex scent with moderate sillage and good longevity. A simple and stunning winner from this very interesting house I can never get enough of. Enjoy!

The smell of a medicinal cupboard: minty tiger balsam and cough medicin. Quite insame to pay that much to smell medicines… No, thanks

Profumum Thundra involves a relatively straightforward trio of mint, patchouli, and musk.
I’m generally not a fan of mint, but as with Viktor & Rolf Antidote, Thundra begins with a very tasteful use of mint in its opening, which ultimately gives way to the patchouli more so in the dry down, eventually to the point that it’s basically a patchouli bomb with a hint of musk.
It smells gentlemanly and balanced at the beginning, and then mostly patchouli-dominant in the dry down. For many, I imagine this dry down is a good thing, but it’s not quite for me. While I enjoy patchouli when mixed with other notes, a patchouli-dominant fragrance is rarely something I enjoy.
Thundra leans a little masculine, as I generally think of patchouli-dominant fragrances, but it’s unisex enough for women. It’s a great performer, as well, as is Profumum’s signature, so there’s value if you love the scent.
I like it and appreciate it, but just don’t love it.

Ah, chock full of patchouli. I do like patchouli, but all I could think of was that I smelled like Zizanie. Great longevity.

As I go deeper into Profumum Roma philosophy I unconciously try to identify each fragance with an aspect of the ancient Roman Empire. When trying Thundra I find myself sat around a bonfire beside emperor Trajan, maybe in one of his campaigns in Dacia in the middle of the Carpat Mountains surrounded by the trees of a thick humid forest, breathing the momentary peace and silence of the place, breathing what the trees breathe.

It smells frighteningly natural and rich, and due to its monster silage and super longevity may actually turn some heads.
The combination of musk+patchouli+moss and whatever herbs they put in there make it absolutely unwearable for me. Maybe if it weren’t this concentrated it would have been a lot more wearable, or if there were more floral and/or citrus notes mixed in for some contrast. I think its aimed at a more trained and sophisticated nose than the average.

This is so similar to Bruno Acampora Musc. However, Profumum’s version smells completely natural while Bruno’s Musc smells highly synthetic. To me, it’s reminiscent of aftershave. Not what I am personally seeking, but you can tell the quality is outstanding.

This is the perfume I’ve been looking for forever. The smell of damp forest and soil. Too me this isn’t a frozen thundra, this is woods after rain or like a cool root cellar. The patchouli is heavy in this one but with the mint comes a certain freshness, as with the musk. I was recommended this when searching for a lavender sent and it does smell like lavender. It has a certain stinginess, but not like Carons Pour un Homme e.g. Still, there’s a smoothness to it, but not at all as smooth as my other lavender alternative, Kiki Voile d’Extrait from Vero Profumo, which lingers like a sweet summer’s morning. Thundra has so many layers; it is in a way brutal, yet sublime. I just can’t stop smelling myself whenever I put this on. Love it to bits.

Thundra had a strong medicinal feel for me. It smelled like a pine essential oil I often use for nasal inhalations when I have viral cold. The mint note in it almost resembles a Vick’s vapor chest rub. Strangely though, this fragrance was comforting and cooling, even tranquilizing – so could be a great complementary scent for those hyper types who bounce of the walls.

Thundra sounds like it would be a better name for a woman with a rather stormy disposition.
Egoroo – :
Mushroom earthness, mint and some sweetness in the drydown. If that’s what floats your boat then go for it. I pass for now. May revisit it someday when its priced at $50

I don’t smell mint but patchouli + lavandin essential oil.
VnRuEn – :
Once again I’m not good at picking up the notes. I tought I smelled tobaco. On me Thundra smells like package of menthol cigarettes. But I guess it’s just the combination of patchouli and mint.

I usually don’t like too much patchouli in a fragrance, but this swept me of my feet.
And the interesting part is that I’ve tried it during a typical extremely warm summer day, and it actually worked out for me perfectly.
The scent is so cold and wet that is refreshed me during the heat and somehow evokes thinking of how I love being alone and spending time on myself, which I rarely do.
Will try to purchase because it is rare smelling, beautifully blended cold patchouli – mint fragrance that for me has the best description in the name itself.
Thundra.
My rating: 9/10

It’s very intimate scent. First it smells like forest in autumn, mushrooms and wet leaves… After 15 minuties there becomes something sweet… something so sexy…
Yes, it’s smell for special mood, for meditation or for sex, may be for dreaming… It’s smell for understsnding yourself and to open you real nature for the world. But try it only on your skin and wait… If you don’t like it – try it anohter day (only for women).

This is one of my favorite fragrances. I have about 2 spritzes left in my bottle, and I am dreading using them up, because despite my love I don’t think I am going to spring for another bottle.
It reminds me so much of being outdoors on a certain kind of day in autumn when the intense Indian Summer is shutting down on the way towards winter. It’s very evocative of the forest, the moist floor of the forest, ferns and moss, dew laden fir boughs, the heavy, clean and damp air of the rain forests of Northwestern Washington, where I loved to walk …
So I am on an avid search right now to find something else that will take me there. Any suggestions?

Very suggestive scent the fresh smell of forest after rain.wonderful
after a while you find real patchouly
natural and intense.
simple cozy long lasting power.
what’s more?
right price couse it’s overpriced

It’s a cold, green pine scent that eventually turns into something that resembles every green chypre fragrance out there. Maybe some moss, a bit of patchouly, probably some lavender, cypress, citrus up top, a little spice of some sort. Nothing ground breaking. If you want to smell like cold, green, wet forest this might do the trick. It’s not bad by any means, and definitely a little bit different from most scents in the category, but it’s not something I want to smell like all day.

I don’t know why the high-terpene scent of pine is not listed- for me it is the strongest note, which dissipates a bit during the initial drydown- but not enough for me to avoid thinking of days when my mother cleaned with Pine-sol. And, as it protrudes just that much, I find this scent not as “together” as some of the house’s other fragrances- many of which are exquisite! The patchouli level is lovely here- almost subliminal, and adds a nice, dark warmth to the coldness of pine. There is a flower in the heart which I cannot identify. Vanilla and musk are very-delicate humming underneath. If only they’d bring the pine down a notch, and perhaps combine it with a warmer wood (juniper/cypress, perhaps)- then I’d be sold on this logger’s dream.

Sometimes, less is more. I was intrigued what three notes can do- and believe me, they can do a lot.
Thundra first intrigued me with a name, and then with a scent. As you could imagine, it is cold, wet, harsh. Awakens feelings of solitude, loneliness and separation from the world. It is mainly about mint and patchouli, which give it an earthy character livened up by herbal, fresh accords.
A great scent for meditation, smells natural as a forest after the rain.
Because of its harshness, I cant really wear it- it is one of the scents you need to be mood in, and I would definitely see it on a man rather than on a woman…

An earthy-minty scent, like peppermint tea with patchouli. It feels like wet leaves. It’s woody, moist, and a little bitter. I usually love patchouli-dominant scents, but I find myself feeling indifferent about this one.
UPDATE: I’ve tested this a few times since my initial review, and it’s taken me a while to wrap my head around this fragrance. Maybe my impression has changed because the weather is cooler now, or maybe my chemistry has changed, but I finally feel like I am understanding the mint note here.
It makes the patchouli chilly, and breezy, but the most remarkable benefit I have noticed is that it’s great for days when I have a nagging headache. It’s refreshing, and makes me want to breathe deeply. Still, it’s a patchouli-dominant scent, which makes it grounding. And, after an hour or so, it dries down to a gentle, slightly chocolate-y patchouli base.

If patchouli would grow in Arctic environments it probably would smell like the patchouli in Thundra. In one way Thundra is the cold version of Serge Lutens Borneo 1834. They are both strong on the patchouli and with high demands on the person wearing them, but at the same time they are very different.
Thundra is aromatic, powerful and also cold, somewhat distant. Like being surrounded by air with the smell of snow in it. The mint in Thundra isn´t really minty, it just make the patchouli refreshing, high tuned and very different from most takes on patchouli.
Usually I like warm scents better than cold, but Thundra is that unique I feel like wearing it from time to time. Just to remind me of how patchouli also could smell. Otherwise I think Thundra is great on my husband, usually he wears cold scents better than me.
Recommend it to everyone that likes a good patchouli, to everyone looking for an unique patchouli, and for everyone with an adventourus mind, heart and soul.
