L'Homme Le Parfum
L'Homme Le Parfum by Yves Saint Laurent is a masculine-leaning parfum from 2020 in the designer price tier. It opens with cardamom, ginger and bergamot, moves into iris, sage and geranium and dries down to amberwood, cedarwood and vetiver. Expect around 8 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Cardamom Cool, aromatic spice with a eucalyptus lift. Smells expensive.
- Ginger Warm, zesty and slightly soapy. Bridges citrus and spice.
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
Heart
- Iris Cool, powdery, slightly carroty and expensive. The luxury note.
- Sage Dry, herbal and slightly bitter. Adds a grown-up, aromatic edge.
- Geranium Rosy and minty at once. Reads masculine more often than not.
Dry-down
- Amberwood Dry synthetic warmth, sharper than amber. Everywhere in modern masculines.
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
- Vetiver Dry, earthy, smoky grass root. Smells like soil and citrus peel.
