Blend of spice, florals, and greens
It’s been a long time, since I’ve smelled this cologne, so I’ll keep my more basic review from then. At least until I encounter Le Fou 21 again.

I had no expectations of Le Fou 21 before I got it and frankly only bought it on the strength of the Dolce & Gabbana name. I didn’t check the notes which made up this fragrance nor did I check to see what category of scent it could be placed under, so I was going into this sort of blind.

When I first sprayed Le Fou 21 from the tester, I immediately noticed its warmth and spice. It reminded me somewhat of YSL’s wonderful Opium for Men, in that respect, with its oriental spice and smooth aroma that is similar to a vanilla.

Le Fou, however, is a different fragrance from Opium, especially once it settles down. It is a really great blend of spice, florals, and greens. The cognac gives this fragrance its warmth and I think that it would work beautifully in late Autumn or Winter.

Ce n'est pas du tout fou
D&G Anothology LE FOU 21 is a decidedly masculine fragrance. Very aromatic and woody, with a familiar complement of green and brown elements found in many masculine colognes. When I first applied this composition, it reminded me a bit of Bond no 9 SILVER FACTORY, and I really thought that incense numbered among the notes, but maybe it was an olfactory illusion? In any case, I am thoroughly convinced that the notes list is incomplete, for the cedarish iso-E-Super quality is undeniable here.

I definitely would not say that this composition is "fou" or "crazy" in any way. To my nose, this is a very typical masculine cologne, albeit with pretty big sillage and above average longevity. I surmise that LE FOU would probably too masculine for many women, whom I advise to try before they buy.

This cologne isn’t heavy, rather, it is a light fragrance that seems to linger in the air but never overwhelms the senses.
