A Mistake that Turned into Positive Vibes
One of the initial fragrances I purchased during the pandemic was Guerlain’s L’Homme Ideal EDT.
The problem is, I meant to get the EDP version.
Rather than making a return, I tried out the EDT. I can see why it has received so much praise—and many flankers—after wearing a third of the bottle over a year.
----
Wearing L’Homme Ideal feels like an amazing date with a positive atmosphere. Your date thinks your jokes are hilarious. The food is amazing, and the weather fits the mood. The good vibes are unbreakable.
Ideal opens with orange blossoms and citric notes. Within minutes, they blend with the almond and tonka bean middle notes to make a silky sweet fragrance.
In the base notes, leather, cedar, and vetiver combine with everything to create a sensual, and soothing scent.
Anyone can use the fragrance with confidence, as L’Homme Ideal is reminiscent of a unisex fragrance. It should surprise no one because the perfumer is Thierry Wasser. He worked on exemplary fragrances with blurred gender lines such as Dior Addict and Jil Sander Absolute Man.

In terms of performance, L’Homme Ideal hits above its weight class as an EdT.
The fragrance can turn heads if they are within six feet of the wearer. That said, do not expect the scent to scream your presence as you enter a bar or a large room.
Also, the fragrance lasts for about eight hours. If you plan to attend a long event, or you expect a long evening out with a lady, L’Homme Ideal is up to the task.
----
L’Homme Ideal is an adaptable scent. The fragrance works well for daily usage, or one used for leisure in downtime to relax. Ideal is also a solid evening scent to end the day before sleeping. I can also envision anyone using the fragrance to help reduce stress in the workplace. However, because of the projection, one needs to be cautious if a fragrance policy exists.
L’Homme Ideal works fine in any season but will be most effective in the cooler months of the year or in a colder climate.
On the negative end, the serene vibe of the scent clashes with a workout environment. Also, this is not a scent for older gentlemen who prefer fresh fragrances. However, Ideal can work for gentlemen who are experimenting with sweeter fragrances.
On a date night, L’Homme Ideal hits all the targets. The fragrance can project across a dining table and is welcoming for individuals during a dance, a hug, or whatever they desire.
----
L’Homme Ideal EDT is a great fragrance, and on my end, is a lucky mistake.
Those looking for a fragrance that is not sweet, or that offers a unique alternative to current trends in fragrance, may become disappointed.
However, L’Homme Ideal is a fragrance worthy of attention if you fit into certain categories. Consider testing or buying it if you want a versatile date night fragrance or just a good fragrance at a reasonable price point.
