Bright dry spicy-woody

Lalique’s take on spicy-woody is quite successful, I must say. It gets well-deserved high ratings across the boards.

Equus opens extremely bright and crisp with juniper and zesty citrus. It is instantly recognizable and immediately sets a comfortable mood. Classy, timeless - some might say 'mature' - and still informal.

The spicy-woody character is there from the start. The woods here are super dry. Some refer to a horse stall, but I don’t get that. There's nothing funky or barnyard here. This is crisp and clean to me. Dry wood fibers.

About the spice.. It doesn't come across 'culinary', although there's loads of nutmeg and mace. It scores seriously high on the scoville scale.

The scent does not develop much. The opening notes fade a bit and then it stays comfortably in this dry spicy-woody area with a subtle resin in the background. At all times, the sillage is moderate. Longevity just so-so.

All in all a lovely creative composition. Great value for money.

Elevator Pause

This mesmerizer caused me to follow a strange man onto an elevator and stand in the doors, asking what he was wearing. Understanding me fully, he answered quite seriously but all I heard was "Lalique Pour Homme" before I stepped back and let him get on his way. Bad manners, yes, but there are worse things—like never finding out what this was! I panicked when I discovered that Lalique Pour Homme comes in versions: Lion, Horse (Equus), Deer (Le Faune), also Cristal which includes Panther, Bouddha and Athletes.

Off I went to the nearest Lalique counter, to no avail except narrowing it down to this and the one above (Lion) because they weren't in stock. I ordered them both from an online discounter and, voila! The elevator man was wearing the intoxicant, Equus. It has Juniper, mainly. Also cardamom and citrus zest in the top. Violet leaf, Mace (mace? oh, the seasoning) and Sequoia wood in the heart. When I put the test strip to my nose, I didn't want to interrupt smelling to take it down and do a skin test. On paper, my nose loved it as much as faves of this group: Pour Monsieur and Heritage.

Okay, skin test. Yum to the max. I love this fresh, appealingly bracing scent. My nose does twitch a tiny tad, eventually, so there may be an aromachemical in there, but not enough to close a nose like so many new ones do.

Equus Review

A very original Juniper+Nutmeg combination. But I feel like the smell of Malaysian halal food restaurants. Just only some hints are shared with Spicebomb and Bvlgari MIB. The three are actually quite different. Equus is essentially a type of chef fragrance.

Anyway I have both EDP and EDT. Performance doesn't seem to make much difference. EDP pours more nutmeg and mace, and EDT seamlessly connects from citrus to vetiver-woody notes. But really not a big difference. Both are great value for about $ 25. It's best for a day off at home. Equus is a domestic and caring husband, and a father holding his two years old child in his arms and cooking in the kitchen.

It's not useful at all for outdoor or official events. Unless you're a novice, it's not good for business also. Wear it only on weekends to fool your wife that you did some houseworks.

* The engraved bottle is really artistic.

Perles Pour Homme?

Scentrack: Jakatta – The Other World

In my opinion Lalique is one of the most underappreciated fragrance houses. Lalique always delivers well-composed imaginative creations for a good price. Just to mention Encre Noire, Hommage a l’Homme, Hommage a l’Homme Voyageur, Perles, Amethyst, Ombre Noire... Yes, performance is sometimes subpar, but no one could deny their timeless beauty and sophistication.
Equus is the typical story of Lalique fragrance. Launched too early, nicely polished, reminiscent of a classic era and completely under the radar. It opens with a certain Asian citrus touch that almost immediately transforms in spice cabinet nutmeg and cardamom. This introduction is rounded by juniper with gin qualities and just a hint of green violet leaf. Then gradually morphs in woody phase characterized by the guitar rosewood, subtle vetiver and musk. In the base there is also a touch of gentle powder. The most impressive is the connection between the name and the composition. From the first smell Equus transported me way back in the past, directly in the circus. Although it is clean, polite and well groomed, underneath the surface is a funky animal hidden note, probably by the usage of some woods.
Equus is very natural smelling composition. Relaxing as a walk through a peaceful forest on a sunny day. The sun is muted by ancient trees, but still bright enough to enjoy the walk. A composition that came out too early. Later this theme will be relaunched in a denser way inside Spicebomb and Bvlgari Man in Black. It has some qualities of radiant Perles, but still, it is not its male counterpart. A beautiful woodsy fougere that confirms my theory that 2000s were the most creative years for perfumes.

Spicy Woody Goodness

I am totally in love with and impressed by this fragrance. A gentleman's scent. With extreme longevity. I'm surprised it has a longevity rating of 7.1 when really this easily lasts at least 14 hours

I received this as a gift and didn't expect much but boy was I wrong. I will definitely be buying another bottle for myself soon.
