Pour Homme II
Pour Homme II by Gucci is a masculine-leaning eau de toilette from 2007 in the designer price tier. It opens with bergamot, cinnamon and violet leaf, moves into green tea and olive blossom and dries down to patchouli, incense and musk. Expect around 7 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Cinnamon Sweet heat. Reads festive, sometimes to a fault.
- Violet Leaf Crisp, watery green with a metallic edge. Cool rather than fresh.
Heart
- Green Tea Dry, slightly bitter, calm. Quiet and very easy to wear.
- Olive Blossom Green, faintly bitter white floral. Dry rather than sweet.
Dry-down
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
- Incense Smoky, dry and meditative. Adds gravity to anything.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
