The Gentleman Scent
I received this fragrance gem as part of a scent swap, where a nice user sent me his last 15ml along with the bottle! Considering how individual leftover stock is still traded, that is truly commendable.
Cuiron pour Homme hits the ground running right from the start. The leather and wood accord are immediately noticeable. Bergamot and plum play very lightly in the background. I can't detect the mandarin that is mentioned.
Cuiron pour Homme doesn't make any grand scent acrobatics; instead, it pulls back a bit later on. The leather comes more to the forefront here, and the musk adds a touch of softness to the whole composition.
The sillage and longevity are good to very good for a cologne. The bottle is, like all of Helmut Lang's, simple but stylish and fits the fragrance well.
When I wear this scent, I often think of an English gentlemen's club. In its lounge, there are old leather armchairs, and the men smoke cigars while sipping good old whisky.
Cuiron pour Homme is certainly not a disco or teen scent. I associate it with a mature man or gentleman who remains unruffled by much. Those who appreciate leather and have the chance to test it should not miss the opportunity, as many bottles are likely to be unavailable soon.

Cranberry Potpourri
This is perhaps the best way to describe the opening of Euphoria Men Intense.
A fruit bowl filled with juicy cranberries, pomegranates, and dark wild cherries. As a counterpoint, a few colorful peppercorns and just a hint of ginger. A varied play between fruit and a slight spiciness.
Later, these fragrance components recede slightly without completely disappearing, and the noble tropical woods, the dark patchouli, paired with a touch of vetiver, come to the forefront and perfectly round off this wonderful scent!
I love the women's version of Euphoria, but I was a bit skeptical since the "normal" men's version simply falls flat in the reviews. The Intense is an absolute knockout fragrance and has completely convinced me!
Thanks again to RedShadow, who gave me the tip about this amazing perfume!

Raspberry Spirit in a Flask
that's what I thought when I sprayed Individuel for the first time and held the bottle in my hand.
Holy moly, this stuff is sweet! It practically knocks your fillings out! The raspberry clearly dominates the fruity top note. Too sweet for me, I thought it was a bad purchase.
But if I've learned one thing here in the forum, it's that you have to take your time with a fragrance and see it as a whole. And that's exactly what happened. After about an hour, the raspberry takes a step back and a fresh, slightly minty, sensual scent emerges that completely convinced me.
I still need to get used to the start of Individuel, but the rest is simply heavenly!

Noble Companion
L'Instant de Guerlain pour Homme Eau Extrême. What a name for a perfume, I thought. Plus, it's number 1 on the Top 100 list. If this isn't worthy of a blind buy, which perfume is? So I ordered the 75ml version and could hardly wait to finally spray it on!
Two days later, the moment had come. I sprayed twice on my forearm and found myself in the Guerlain fragrance universe for the first time!
A delicate smoky-citrusy scent enveloped me, so wonderful! I was simply blown away.
After the top notes faded, a delicious dark scent emerged (whether chocolatey or cocoa) definitely something in that direction. I can't define it exactly. In any case, I couldn't take my nose away from my arm; I even wanted to nibble on it.
For the first few days, I even sprayed this scent on my arm before going to bed and sniffed it! Crazy, right?!?
These were my first experiences with L'Instant de Guerlain pour Homme Eau Extrême. A fragrance that truly fascinated me. The longevity is outstanding, the sillage strong, yet not intrusive, as the scent is simply harmonious and rounded. The bottle is also great. This fragrance is simply a noble companion and perfect for special occasions! Whether it is the best perfume is debatable, but it definitely ranks at the top!

Great Gummy Bear Opening
After I stumbled upon this forum a few weeks ago, I was hooked and infected with the perfume virus!
I didn't know anything about top, heart, or base notes before. I had no idea how fragrances are described here in a somewhat poetic way and what scents exist beyond Cool Water and One Million. I now "smell" my fragrances completely differently and more intensely. Because of the great comments here, I've already been driven to some blind purchases that I haven't regretted so far.
Now to "Pi"
I sprayed Pi in a perfumery because the design of the bottle immediately caught my eye. And I was also thrilled by the top note of Pi right away, so I had a tester given to me.
The opening of Pi will probably scare some people off. It smells to me like tearing open a pack of gummy bears and then sticking your nose in. Fruity, sweet, truly unique. Normally, I'm not really into such sweet perfumes, but Pi is different. The top note lasts a long time for me (about 1 hour), then it transitions into a warm vanilla, roasted almond mix that really wraps around you like a warm coat. Perfect for this time of year.
The sillage is really strong, and the longevity is very good for me at 10 hours plus.
You will either love this perfume or hate it; there will be nothing in between. For my part, I will definitely add it to my still young collection.
