The good old days

This, the old version of the Dolce & Gabbana pour Homme, didn't have much in common with the current version, as it was much more intense, richer in facets, had more depth and was more masculine.

Dolce & Gabbana pour Homme was my first signature fragrance. I wore it about the beginning of the 2000s until just before 2010. I could never get enough of him for so long. With him I always felt well wrapped up. He was my faithful companion. Whether at night or at work. Pour Homme was an evergreen and a compliment collector. The flacon was a tangible thing, its shape made it fit perfectly in the hand. Buying a new fragrance was always a great feeling, because the outer packaging was already special, with a blue velvet-like cover and looked much more elegant than the cardboard boxes of all other fragrances.

Without having been involved in perfume at that time, I guess I already liked lavender and sandalwood at that time. Interesting, if you look at it again from today's point of view, there are still two of my favourite scents.

I still remember too well the reactions of one of my colleagues at work. She used to get a big kick out of me wearing this scent. If I had a cup of coffee in my hand to go with it, it was all over with her. She always liked the combination of pour Homme and a fresh coffee very much and so it happened that I had to make a few rounds around her desk with a pot of coffee in my hand. Since she was so enthusiastic about it, she thought that her boyfriend should also smell as good and so she got a small bottling from a perfumery, only to have to report to me the next day, to her sorrow, completely disappointed that the fragrance on her boyfriend probably did not develop the desired notes as it did on my skin. I have to admit, I was enjoying myself
I have spent many wonderful times with this fragrance and experienced great things during it.

It is a pity that it no longer exists in this formulation. But this is exactly where you notice what perfume can do. Because how is it so often with beautiful things? One feeds on memories! And so Pour Homme still manages to put a little smile on my face today.

That's what perfume does to us. It arouses emotions and passion
