The tigrina is ‘Glory of Mexico’ it is even more impressive than my ‘Predator’ 7” wide vs 6”, and the lip is about a quarter inch longer too. I also really like the golden tones on this one.

the fragrances are hard to describe on these 3, but I'll try: (1) tigrina - very strong fragrance, something like the old scratch-n-sniff chocolate stickers from when I was a kid in the 80s, so not actually a chocolate fragrance, but the closest a chemist could get back then mixed with new plastic. So think lots of those stickers on your brand-new trapper keeper, and you're close, my apologies if you are younger than me, as I can't think of anything else to compare it to. (2) Martiana - a strong, though less so) fragrance, like a tones down tigrina mixed with vanilla extract; of the three I think most people would like this fragrance the best. (3) hernandezii - also strong, but not as strong as tigrina, like an open tin of altoids, so a hint of mint mixed with a clean metallic smell. I like the fragrance of all 3, but my wife and kids find the tigrina fragrance too overpowering to enjoy
