Big changes in our lives can be a second chance. Harrison Ford
Habit Rouge was way ahead of its time, now it is lagging somewhat unhappily behind. In the Guerlain gondola, if there is one in the store at all, the actual pioneer is pretty far down the list. Many flankers with water in their name or the offshoot Dress Codes by Monsieur Wasser were not even unsuccessful. The original fragrance, despite adaptations, never got off the ground. It will probably soon be completely reformulated so that it can remain. So the idea of a perfume version is not such a bad one.
At first you don't know which is the perfume and which is the original, what's the difference in consistency here? After that, the perfume goes its own way by holding on to the bergamot and not letting go, not the whole way through. This citrusy impact is surrounded by leather, not very strong and remains very perceptible on the skin for over 10 hours. Sometimes it flashes up and you can feel it clearly, which is a pleasure. Finally a release that lives up to its name and durability. Many perfumes are only of higher quality in terms of price and packaging.
This change to the more contemporary citrusy feel worked well, Delphine Jelk has already created the LHomme Idéal fragrance, which is certainly one of Guerlain's best at the moment.
A must for Habit Rouge idealists, for others the weaker Habit Rouge is a good start.

Thomas Alva Edison Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The surest way to success is always to try again.
The first Scent came onto the market nine years ago, with a somewhat narrow chest. The scent was good, almost brilliant for a designer and quite novel with the sweet very powdery impression combined with the maninka and lavender.
Now in 2024, something new and groundbreaking had to come along. Perfumer Bruno Jovanovic was no longer available, so this new fragrance was given to a creator who made the best of the somewhat unimaginative elixir hype. The new The Scent is stronger, more dominant and clearer than the original fragrance. It is more linear, simpler and less powdery. The lavender has been retained, but the two ingredients allspice, known from the Spanish as a spice pepper mixture, and sandalwood have been added. Initially, roses also appear; these are not listed but are very recognizable in the fragrance.
The relationship to the first The Scent is far-fetched and is due to marketing. However, this says nothing about this elixir, which is successful, one-dimensional and very long-lasting. Weaker than a Sauvage Elixir, it lasts about as long on the skin as a Boss Bottled. After an hour, the initial dominance gives way to a warmth of wood, which remains and makes The Scent mature and mature. A good all-rounder for gentlemen in their prime, but also for newcomers, which can certainly be used as a signature.

If you have no enemies, then you have no character. Paul Newman
No fragrance has only friends, or rather, applauders. This sailor, which feels like the 25th, doesn't just get compliments either. But it usually always gets feedback, thanks to its durability. No one is currently as controversial as this golden torso.
At first, there were questions as to whether anyone was wearing a women's fragrance, even though there were only male participants in the group. After that, it was all uphill from there.
The sweetness with the powder is convincing and lingers for a long, long time. At the football match between FC Bayern and FC Basel, wearing a thick jacket, sweater and scarf, a lady two seats to the right even asked who smelled so good? This at 0 degrees and with the zipper at the top. This was just a friendly match, but for the sailor it was a Champions League match. One that is a little older, but no less strong, with the same elixir in its name, plays in the same league, but in a much more bitter and herbaceous 80s retro-climate. This Le Male is sweetened just right and gives the tonka bean the space it needs to be there every day. If you want another elixir with a classic longevity, you can also choose the Boss Bottled Elixir, which is more suited to the interior of a church.
Therefore, the real winner of the fashion elixirs is this Golden Boy, which will hopefully continue to sweeten your day for a long time at a relatively low price.

Sometimes you can capture the past with your senses: One smells of pleasant memories, the other stinks to high heaven. Ernst R. Hauschka
1989 in the agglomeration of Basel, near Liestal.
Lunch with the family, my brother was a CK One lover, my stepfather was a denim lover and my mother was a Shalimar lover. Today only my brother is still on the same planet.
It was good manners not to put on perfume before dinner, my family as I remember had no perfume on at all on a normal working day and suddenly I appeared and dominated the kitchen, the food and the mood of the other attendees.
Fantavier were stressing about them, me about that one.
The feedback on the pink Joop, which at that time was still really from Wolfgang, brought an irritable and Joop-hostile mood into the lunch break.
The cod fillets on the dining table, had to admit defeat by my Joop, the vegetables could no longer be eaten without the smell of Joop homme.
It was the aha moment, how and where you can use a fragrance and where not.
Every other bottle after Joop was a fabric softener in terms of the sillage or intrusiveness of this pinky concoction.
After that, it was a perceived 30 years of no more fun until the basic traits of Joop homme were revisited in this eau de parfum.
Similarities to the Mugler fragrances especially the Urmugleristen A-Men and the la nuit de l homme l`intense are given, wanted or not, since this one comes from Coty and not Loréal.
The formula can convince, not every copy or remake must be bad.
This modern perfumy convinces thanks to the bergamot which fights against the cinnamon and the black-brown shrub and makes the whole story exciting. Boredom does not arise here.
A product which occurs in the mainstream 2021 so dominant, can only be praised.
You do not have to like it, nevertheless, he has Wumms.
The tonka bean with the sandalwood make this well in time transformed Homme to an almost niche fragrance with an incredible drugstore price.
This combination belongs in the hall of fame or in some other unimportant list which the many expensive, in the design extremely strong and contemporary Rohrkrepierer in the fray. Why does it need niche fragrances with which one is embarrassed by too strong application with the one-sidedness of the ingredients, if one can make it here cheaply?
This Homme is a bright ray of hope to the other new releases which also pick up an old fragrance theme and yet are completely failed.
Examples such as a le male parfum or the most wanted are ideal contemporary witnesses as one should just not tackle it.
That's why you can only have respect from this ancestor of Joop homme, how successful and fitting he has become.
As a signature fragrance not only suitable for the U-20 or Twens, but for people who want to or can revive this long-lasting Homme with beautiful memories.
Joop has here finally continued his right path after the Joop homme absolute and left the path of insignificance something.

An image and a person are two different things. It's damn hard to live up to an image. Elvis Presley
Joop as a brand which is based in the house Coty, had it really not easy. The best sellers brought one under Boss or one had the cheap sector in the area. Joop spent far too long on his pink fragrance, which today has also been changed too much and probably no longer brings the sales figures of the past. There was the Nightflight which also got a lot of attention and praise.
Many new releases came and went asbald again. The Joop Wow was a beginning from the long time of lethargy.
With this absolute which reminds very firmly of the Luna Rossa extreme, Coty has brought a very beautiful and well composed participant on the market. He is already from the 2019 what passed me by completely. The poor durability can not be understood, He performs around 5-6 hours very strong and is still perceived a little more than a skin scent afterwards. The spiciness at first spray it keeps until the end. This pepper is reminiscent of the Luna, perhaps also the Bang by Marc Jacobs, which can also be found at Coty.
For a Joop fragrance, it is absolutely contemporary, pleasant and despite the incense not intrusive or inappropriate in the warmer months. He works even at 30 degrees very pleasant and never becomes too much or intrusive as many others at these temperatures.
Price performance is absolutely fine for the size of the bottle.
Is it worth a repurchase? Probably yes, if the price range is maintained so.
It is to be hoped that further Joop fragrances will surprise so pleasantly and shed the somewhat difficult image of Joop. The new Joop Homme gives hope, as the path of good product is also continued here.
