Pleasant...
Most of the reviews hit the nail on the head with this one. Incredibly buttery and creamy, a tiny bit sweet, but most of all, it's really smooth. Absolutely none of the 'lipstick' or 'make-up' vibe that you get with the Dior Homme line is found in ATH's Homme. Actually, I don't really think they have many similarities in the way they smell despite sharing many notes with each other.

I really like Homme, but it's maybe lacking something to make it really catch my attention. I feel like a leather note in the base might give this a bit more dimension. Of course, with ATH fragrances you know you're getting out-of-this-world longevity and a good amount of sillage, and there's no exception here.

I'm still debating whether or not to get a full bottle of Homme. I would say at the moment I'm leaning towards no as it's just lacking a little something to give it an edge.

EDIT: The more I'm wearing this, the more and more I'm liking it and edging closer towards buying a full bottle. Somebody below mentioned that it smells like clean clothes and I understand what they mean. Whilst I'm not necessarily reminded of fresh laundry, it does smell very clean in the air; I didn't really know what his 'clean skin accord' was but I'm really starting to pick up on it the more I wear Homme - I think it might be ISO E Super. Despite its name, I think any gender can comfortably pull this off. I think Homme is a versatile fragrance and would be great choice for everyday use because of it's inoffensive nature (providing that it's not a hot day!).

I do still feel this is lacking something to make it a really special fragrance and at the price of £125 for 50ml, that's perhaps a little steep for what I'd consider to be an everyday fragrance. Of course that's completely subjective, and if you're fine with dropping £100+ on a fragrance you'll wear everyday then this might be one that you want to consider. If this were around £80 then it would be a no-brainer for me, but maybe it's a bit too pricey for what it is.

EDIT 2: I ended up buying a full bottle! I've fully fallen in love with it over time and I appreciate it for what it was designed to do. After a while it begins to wear almost like a second skin - it's my go-to fragrance for the moment. My favourite so far from the ATH line.

Iris tonka candy
Not for me lol.
This scent reminds me of the transition from fall to spring, lovely warmer scent cutting through the cold of the transition with a lovely fragrance they has a unique edge: iris.
Iris has been trending in the past year and it’s nice to see a sweet almost gourmand take on iris,

This scentt, as far as I can tell, is very linear.

It opens with lovely blend of sweetness and Iris, this ain’t no ionone iris accord bs, my guy uses real orris concrete i his batches.
One thing I hat about iris it that it’s either to sharp, screechy or ionone heavy. This is a masterful blended sweet vanilla tonka iris fragrance.

The orris goes so nice with the tonka, who would’ve thought.

While the tonka and sweetness may die off in a few hours, the orris will last for a very very long time as a skin scent, and it’s really nice catching whiffs of it more than 10 hours later.

Not so much a compliment puller, but I am in tropical climate,, just wanna get that out the way.

If I didn’t live in a tropical climate, this might be a signature.

Very nice fragrance
Gave this stuff a full days wearing yesterday, figured I’d post a full review.

It’s definitely very sweet, first off. The tonka bean and vanilla really give it a hefty dose of sweetness. The iris/orris is really buttery and smooth, slightly powdery and lipsticky. The iris note in here comes off very similar to the oris in givenchy gentleman edp. It’s a fairly simple fragrance.

Now, the note isn’t listed, but i 10000% smell oud in the background, i would be shocked if there wasn’t any oud in this. It honestly ruins it a bit for me because I’m not a fan of the note. There’s an animalic/dirty smell to homme that you can really pick up after the first 10-15 minutes and it’s very apparent on the later dry down. I purchased this fragrance because it was one of the only ones he offers that doesn’t have the oud note, which I dont find to be true.

Performance is stellar, like all of Aaron’s work, 8+ hours on my skin no problem. Strong projection for the first 2-3 hours.

Sexy Fragance
When I met Aaron's Homme I fell in love at first sight. It's the only fragrance I like from him, although I don't just like it, I love it. It's my favourite of all the ones I have for going out at night, especially in colder climates.
As for its composition, I notice a very seductive dirty orris that makes the fragrance smell exquisite. In addition, it has on my skin a quite high wake and projection and the duration exceeds 10 hours.
If you want a fragrance for partying, I recommend this one. Undoubtedly the best in this facet.

Fantastic!!
Another ATH blind buy that has me absolutely in bliss. Such a smoothness to the Iris. It is blended perfectly and it performs oh so well.

It projects well, without being overbearing, yet it leaves a very distinct sillage trail that leads directly to the wearer. Longevity easily surpasses 10 hours, and although I prefer 100ml bottles, I’m content with this.

If you like the Givenchy Gentleman and Dior Homme feeling scents, I think you’ll enjoy this. While not overly redundant, it does have a small taste of similarity; it’s just done with a higher class feeling, with better quality ingredients.

I’m very happy, indeed.

A warm and creamy/sweet spicy-woody Chypre, with a rather dry and dusty earthy-floral opening. Nice Orris and vanilla combo! More masculine.

Waxy, powdery like a second skin. Unobtrusive and rather intimate. Most likely in the vicinity of Valentino Uomo, but still unique enough

I found this to be a bit Mediocre if I'm being honest. Projection + Sillage wasn't spectacular and the scent wasn't anything standout.

Nice quality orris, really easy to wear, but simple and boring, just a designer fragrance style with higher quality ingredients.

A smooth, velvety Iris supported by sandalwood, tonka, vanilla and amber. Creamy, woody, sweet and powdery. Impressive.
