Poor feeling.

On my skin it behaves like an old-fashioned lavender, very old school, to the point that I have worn perfumes much older than this one and they didn't seem so old fashioned to me. I'm sorry if some of the lovers of this fragrance disagree with me, but that's the way I feel about it.
The citrus, praline or vanilla, do not appear at any time. Be careful with vanilla lovers, because they may be disappointed.

However, the duration is beastly.

For vanilla lovers

Vanilla, vanilla. If you like vanilla heavy fragrances, you will like this one. And in contrast, if you dont like vanilla, you might want to stay out of this one. I personally like it, it has a nice deep touch to it. Both projection and sillage are pretty average. I've been wearing it both day and night.

Only downside is the bottle with a poor sprayer; I need to press the sprayer REALLY HARD to get a decent spray, or else it will just spurt a stream and spill all over the bottle itself.

Vanilla+lavender+mint

Good for his price but very average perfume. This is a fresh vanilla with loads of lavender and the freshness of the mint mixed with Orange blossom which gives a bit some dirty character. Average performance for everyday use.

Soothing

Anyone who sees my collection and my profile will surely notice my fascination with old, heavy, absolutely outdated fragrances. Perhaps they also sense my aversion to almost all modern designer scents that, let's say, were born after 1995. Ted Lapidus is a designer, may he rest in peace, whose fragrances were already brilliant in the 80s and whose men's line perfectly matches my taste.

In 2003, TL pour Lui was released, and since Lapidus was on the label, I dared a blind purchase despite the modern era. Thank you, Ted, or rather thank you to the house and its perfumer Maurice Roucel, for this fragrance taking a brilliant path against the boring and weak men's fragrance trend of the current time. In terms of sillage and overall intensity, the scent is already a powerhouse candidate and stylistically reminds me of Le Male, Animales Animale for men, or A*Men. However, unlike this type, the fragrance is carried into elegant and soothing regions by light lavender and green mint. The vanilla as the main note of the fragrance is one of the best and most natural vanilla notes I have encountered in mainstream creations so far. One gladly immerses oneself in it and enjoys the overall construct. Longevity for me is about 10 hours. The bottle is actually not my style, but the T encased in glass is quite successful. Recommended for all vanilla lovers, whether man or woman.

Very helpful Review 5

It's actually too sweet for me, but...

... it's still much more pleasant and natural than its relevant competitors. The intense sweetness is accompanied by a corresponding spiciness that softens it a bit. Certainly, it is not as brilliantly crafted as, for example, "Obsession for Men" or "Opium Homme," my prime examples of this, but it is definitely leagues better than "Le Male," "Invictus," and other candidates. And more natural, and - God forbid - towards the end, it even becomes really warm and cozy...

In contrast to the well-known fully synthetic sweet fragrances, there is also development here, and the perfumers have put some thought into the fragrance pyramid.

So, if sweet, then this one. Longevity and sillage are also truly remarkable, and you can't complain about the price (if you can find it)...
