The Quietest Charmer.
Long before citrus was equated with shower gels and blue ambrox bombs, Pour L’Homme imagined a world where lemon could whisper. Its signature is a gentle roasted citrus—bergamot, lemon, and a touch of mandarinal—wrapped in soft lavender, muted spices, and creamy woods.
A fine-spun structure unfolds: Vertofix, Kephalis, and a breath of Sandalwood Mysore create a dry woody veil, while Lyral, Ylang Ylang, and Traseolide add discreet sensuality. Nutmeg and rare Macis absolute bring warmth, never heat. The addition of Epicene Gamma (IFF) lends a slightly metallic, clean edge, like sunlight through fog.
Everything here is soft, groomed, elegant—a fougère in cashmere, with the precision of a well-ironed pocket square. It’s a masculine scent, yes, but spoken in lowercase: refined, introverted, and effortlessly timeless.
