This time, I tried TEREA Riviera Pearl with the IQOS ILUMA i Prime and would like to share my impressions of its flavor and overall smoking experience.
Overall, this is a distinctive flavor that combines a smoothly extending menthol strength with a subtle sweet raspberry aroma, and when the capsule is crushed, a full-bodied rose fragrance blooms dramatically, creating a truly unique profile.
When smoked without crushing the capsule, it delivers a dry, peppermint-style menthol that flows smoothly to the throat, offering a well-balanced cooling sensation that is neither overpowering nor too mild.
A light berry aroma with gentle sweetness and acidity subtly layers on top, giving it enough presence to be enjoyed as a berry menthol on its own.
The initial profile may resemble a lighter version of TEREA Purple Menthol, but once the capsule is crushed, the atmosphere transforms completely.
While the first puff retains a touch of sweet berry flavor, from the second puff onward the rose aroma quickly takes center stage, introducing a more complex and sophisticated character with a refined bitter nuance.
The rose fragrance feels remarkably vivid and authentic, and when exhaled through the nose, it can evoke the sensation of holding a fresh rose close, highlighting its expressive aromatic quality.
The aroma maintains strong presence through the latter half, allowing users to fully appreciate the capsule’s signature fragrance, and while it does not become overtly juicy, its green, botanical nuance adds depth and a distinctive personality that will appeal strongly to those who enjoy floral notes.
For first-time users, it may be enjoyable to start without crushing the capsule to savor the straightforward berry menthol before gradually exploring the rose-forward character.
With its design placing greater emphasis on aroma than flavor intensity, both the draw and throat hit are intentionally light, offering a smooth, mellow experience comparable to a traditional cigarette around the 6 mg range.
This makes it particularly well-suited for those who prefer a lighter, more relaxed smoking experience focused on fragrance and refinement.
