Long live the king!
Where should I start with a legend like this, about which so many clever minds have already said so many wonderful things?
Should I complain about the fact that he no longer exists? Should I complain about how something so beautiful can be taken off the market? Should I complain about the high prices?
None of this would even begin to do justice to this masterpiece, this legend, this king of men's fragrances.
And what is Patou pour Homme Eau de Toilette more or less than the best, most loved and most sought-after men's fragrance of all time by all the enthusiasts?
Heavy words - but they are true.
Patou pour Homme Eau de Toilette is the perfect blend of dark and light tones, of spicy, striking masculinity and gentle elegance, of class, style and edginess.
It begins with a dark woodiness that makes me think of myrrh - this pleasant note lasts a long time, runs through almost the entire fragrance and gives it that certain something.
The whole thing is underlined by a spicy yet gentle note that reminds me of incense - but don't worry: the whole thing is not at all sacred, rather noble and soft - and it quickly blends into a shaving-foam-like, masculine, elegant mixture that gives that certain something even more certain...
Patou pour Homme Eau de Toilette, like all great fragrances of the time, lasts forever - we are talking about 10 to 12 hours with decreasing but always perceptible sillage. Here, the room is not flooded as with Kouros Eau de Toilette and you don't have to hide in the office for 3 hours until it is also pleasant for others.
Patou pour Homme Eau de Toilette is a masterpiece that rightly has the status of a legend and that you literally have to spend half a lifetime looking for in good condition - and then you have to dig deep into your pocket.
Is it worth the money then?
I say YES.
But whether the fact that I have been looking for it for so long plays a psychological role is probably undeniable, but at least it doesn't play the main role - the quality and durability play at least an equal part.
Patou pour Homme Eau de Toilette is and remains unrivaled, a legend, the king - and I can only congratulate anyone who can call it their own

Opulence, depth and happiness
Murano glass, gold and a little chain: you can see from afar where this is going - at least that's what I thought when I saw the bottle for the first time.
And when I smelled the spray head, I was confirmed: beautiful, soft and lovely...
