L'Homme by Prada is like a tailored suit for the senses - elegant, refined, and with a subtle touch of extravagance. The fragrance opens with a powdery-fresh note that immediately reminds one of the immaculate purity of a freshly ironed shirt. The iris and amber in the base give the perfume a luxurious depth, while neroli and violet add a floral lightness that feels like a walk through a blooming garden.
Daniela Andrier has hit the mark here, creating a scent that will surely be remembered in the perfume world as a classic, perhaps even if it isn't already. The fragrance has been around since 2016, but in my perception, it feels like it was only released a few years ago; how quickly time flies…
It is like a discreet companion that remains in the background but still leaves a lasting impression.
Perfect for the modern gentleman who wants to shine both in the office and at an elegant dinner.
The longevity is average for me, and the sillage - the scent trail - is subtle yet present. It is a fragrance that does not shout but whispers, telling a story of style and class. A masterpiece by Daniela Andrier that captures the essence of Prada and is presented in a bottle that is as stylish as the scent itself.
This L’Homme by Prada definitely has the potential to become a signature scent for many men. Subtle, not overpowering, almost inconspicuous (depending on skin type), but present! Those who enjoy soapy and clean powdery fresh perfumes should definitely add this Prada L'Homme to their collection.

Tom Ford's Eau d'Ombré Leather is a fragrance that takes the senses on a sweet-spicy beautiful journey. With its leathery, sweet-spicy composition, it radiates elegance and strength without being overpowering. The top notes of cardamom, coriander, and ginger open the fragrance with a spicy freshness that immediately grabs attention. In the heart notes, the warm leather notes unfold, accompanied by vanilla and saffron, which give the perfume a sensual depth. The base notes of tonka bean, amber, sandalwood, and cedarwood provide a long-lasting, creamy-woody
finish.
The fragrance is versatile and suitable for both everyday wear and special occasions. The dark gray, almost black transparent bottle reflects the elegance of the perfume and makes it a stylish accessory.
For lovers of light leather scents who do not want to feel overly heavy leather vibes, Eau d'Ombré Leather is an excellent choice that combines both masculine and feminine nuances. It is a fragrance that lingers in memory and leaves a lasting impression. A NEARLY masterpiece by Tom Ford, like its predecessors, that celebrates the art of perfumery at a higher level, I think. The only downside is the longevity and sillage; it is not bad, good average, in my opinion, but could have been a bit better considering what kind of longevity its predecessors have. I find this one much weaker in comparison to its brothers.

A completely different kind of "Elixir" from the scent like Sauvage Elixir, and yet I like it very much, as do the people who have smelled it on me. This one is the best of all the Elixirs that came out after the Sauvage Elixir. A beautiful floral scent, although it doesn't change much during the drydown. Still, it has something ADDICTIVE about it, as I keep catching myself sniffing my arm and can't get enough of it. This Gucci strongly reminds me of the floral fragrances from the 90s and 00s; I don't know why I associate it with that, but it gives me those memories afterwards. The scents/vibes of that time. It would fit well as a going-out fragrance in the nights/clubs of that era (also in today's time). In any case, I somehow connect that with it. This Gucci can be worn year-round and is more suitable for the cooler evenings in summer. The bottle is a bit ugly. But the inner values count, and the JUICE is what matters. I find this addictive sweet floral scent can be worn anytime and fits both for going out at night and during the day in casual clothes. It can be worn by a well-dressed gentleman (NO suit with tie) as well as by a casually dressed contemporary. A versatile fragrance in every direction. The Gucci Guilty Elixir is a scent that takes the senses on a fascinating journey. With its floral-sweet and spicy composition, it creates a perfect balance between elegance and intensity. The top note of orange blossom absolute, nutmeg, and allspice opens the fragrance with a zesty freshness that immediately grabs attention. The heart note of iris butter and osmanthus gives the perfume a buttery smoothness and a subtle floral quality, while the base note of ambrofix, vanillin, and patchouli provides a lasting warmth.

The longevity and sillage of the fragrance are impressive, making it an ideal companion for special occasions.
Gucci Guilty Elixir is a scent suitable for both everyday wear and special moments, always leaving a lasting impression.

The longevity is a 9/10
The sillage is an 8/10 and initially strong, but after some time it diminishes a little and is not as intense as at the beginning, yet still noticeable. An all-around successful fragrance that finds its friends over time and has already found (me among others). Simply a top fragrance.

Very fresh citrus woody scent for spring and summer. It is not "Blue" and it is not "Marine Fresh," although I am not averse to this type of fragrance, I find this one particularly beautiful and well-made. If you are looking for something fresh and do not like marine or blue scents, this is just right for you! And the longevity is also good. Actually, this one is suitable for the whole year. As many have mentioned here: The name "Sport" for this good, beautifully crafted freshie is not appropriate for this Dior. When I read "Sport," I immediately think of the cheap stuff from drugstore chains. Those certain fragrances that say "Sport" on them that you slap on for 1-2 hours for the gym. This cliché does not deserve this Dior. Moreover, Dior has not made any friends with its marketing names in recent years, due to the constant changing of names or the ingredients of classics from the house of Dior.
"Dior Homme Sport" is a nice companion for everyday life and can be worn both during the day and in the evening, for leisure as well as work or going out for meetings with friends or acquaintances in a bar or elsewhere. An underrated all-rounder that lives far under the radar of its more famous brothers, I think it deserves more attention or at least as much as its more well-known brothers from the same house. If you are looking for a nice citrus woody freshie with a lovely grapefruit note (yes, I also detect grapefruit here, although it is not listed, at least that is the case for me) and that has good to very good longevity for this type of perfume, then you are exactly right here. The longevity is already very, very good for this type of perfume, and anyone interested in fresh citrus perfumes should get this one or at least test it when they have the chance. A truly worthwhile perfume.
Longevity a 8/10
Sillage a 7/10
PS:
The bottle gets a 7/10
It actually deserves an 8/10 (it is beautiful) but because of the "Sport" print on the bottom... that bothers me and does not fit the bottle.

Who would have thought that after the Elixir by HBB, which is quite successful, there would be another enhancement? I took my time with this statement to thoroughly test this fragrance, so I wouldn't judge too hastily and say it wasn't that great before I let myself be swayed into this review. It's astonishing that this flanker evokes such different memories in me; sometimes I think I smell a Red Tobacco, then again a bit of associations from the Bottled Elixir. I can't pin it down and say: It definitely smells like this or that… no, it's a bit of everything, and yet there's something unique about it. What makes this fragrance special for me is the Davana, the leather, and the incense in combination, which I can smell well and gives it a nice twist. I also noticed that fragrances created in collaboration with at least two or more perfumers in the industry usually receive a good reception or become a sales hit. Like in this case with Annick Ménardo and Suzy Le Helley (who admittedly doesn't have as long a list of creations as the former) but still: Just like with the HBB Elixir before, they created something beautiful together. I see this phenomenon with many other hits that have come out over the years, like the legendary AdG EDT (in which Annick Ménardo also contributed to this hit), "La Nuit de L'Homme" EDT, or "Tuscan Leather," to name just a few, where there was a collaboration of different perfumers. There are several other well-known fragrances that are currently not coming to mind as I write this review, but they should be quite famous, so pay attention to that. Usually, a beautiful fragrance hit comes out of it that later has or finds many fans. I mean, I heard that in the past, "parfum creators/perfumers" positively influenced or inspired each other, which is certainly possible; I don't know if that's true or complete nonsense, whatever. Also, the newer fragrances, including the Gucci Guilty Elixir, which is admittedly quite new like HBB Elixir and the "Absolu" in this case, have to establish themselves first to become a hit. But these are the fragrances that are mostly positively accepted by the majority and are well-made perfumes, just like those mentioned. It's not the case with all perfumes that have actually become well-known sales hits over the years (like with Maestro François Demachy, who created many heavyweights starting from the Dior Homme range (Parfum, Intense, etc.) to the Sauvage range, which he also created alone as far as I know. And despite that, they became big hits. That doesn't mean anything. But one thing must be remembered for the future: At least I will remember this for myself, when a fragrance comes out that has been created by more than one person or was developed in collaboration: Then there is a VERY high probability that it will be good or at least a potential success or bestseller.
