More classical than the Pantheon

Prologue: For the past few months, I've been wearing pure oud oils exclusively, but it was about time for some variety. It's hard to find something suitable when you've spent a long time with natural fabrics. For this reason, you should avoid synthetic scents (for now). So I have reached into my MGO corner and - by chance - a small bottle of the Pour Homme out.

Pour Homme is for me a feel-good fragrance that reminds me of something Pinaud series. Of course, it is much more complex and refined, but it conveys a certain "barbershop" aura. On the one hand, it's herbaceous and mossy with basil, lavender and oregano and a nice vetiver-patchouli-hay combination. It's the green, cold side of the scent, reminiscent of the old days.

On the other side, the scent is nice and spicy with lots of allspice, clove, and cinnamon. This warm thread reminds me of Christmas and speculoos. You get enveloped by a spicy and slightly creamy incense (rounded out by tonka and sandalwood). This is exactly the component that provides a certain sense of security.

The well done combination of fougère notes and "old-school" aftershave à la Bay Rum became a timeless classic.

The fragrance is certainly complex, however, he does not overwhelm. He is strong, but not penetrating. Two sprays have accompanied me throughout the day. The development takes place in the first 2 hours. After that, the fragrance remains rather monotonous, which is not to say that it becomes boring. Quite the opposite.

Who has overlooked this fragrance because of its not so imaginative name, should definitely try it.
