Flying over the few pages of this blog, I realize how much these gentlemen are left behind. So gentlemen, if you happen to get lost here, please not to hold it against me too ... So would I like this list and easily, a few men's fragrances that moved me, marked the course of my forty odd years.
A paternal scent first. A fragrance that "feels good dad" since ... forever! True to its fragrance over the years but never dared to wear a different fragrance. Petit papa
moving, little doctor for my heart, dad bringing For Men Caron every day and forever. A lavender dry crushed under the fingers, under a burning sun, she is enveloped by a sweet vanilla and creamy ... A perfume that smells kiss! Last year in strolling around fragrant, I had the pleasure of discovering Impact For Men : a more dense and close to a formula "from" Toward a Male .. A pure miracle, a real velvet lavender, creamy, warm ...
teenager, I fell in love with Black Drakkar that many friends were wearing. A height that I need not say without blushing: I was so fallen in love with the toilet water, that I had offered a bottle. I loved wearing this water resolutely masculine, very "cash," its synthetic lavender and hints of "severely burnées" helped (yes!) to my current interest in perfumes ... A perfume to my nose, refers to the insolence of youth, the backfiring of the 103 Sport Kite "! Then there was
Polo Ralph Lauren , green notes galore, pines and conifers, fresh a bit harsh, like sheets dried in the sun of the highest peaks ... Vosges! A perfume that smells of complicity, a great joy!
Gentleman Givenchy and metallic notes, his heady patchouli but without ever losing an ounce of elegance. An urban-chic fragrance.
Grey Flannel Geoffrey Beene I discovered with my friend Monique, and then we wore them both, leave us well in that era will tell you one ... I must say that Grey flannel and its dominant note of iris / violet is not really true to the idea that you can do about the masculine scent of the 80 ... Water is a dandy, a delicate fragrance that looks like Rupert Everett ....
It happened to me once or twice, falling off in the street, simply by crossing a passing ...
knees, arms outstretched in front of the startled nobody, I implored me to reveal the name of her perfume ... No, of course not! But I was spinning at all speed (locked in his wake my memory) came to the first perfume, to uncover the obscure object of desire: My investigations were long and sometimes painful but that is how I "became acquainted" with the sublime Habit Rouge Chanel and Guerlain Mr. .
Most recently in Strasbourg, I was surprised to find a bottle of handkerchief Mr. Guerlain's Spring ... A lavender vanilla yet, but so sweet, so powdery, so educated ... His love and light me upset. Alas held its leaves a bit to be desired, you it seems ...
Other pretty things "You men (!)" (In my taste of course ...): The Love Potion No. 9 LP of Penhaligon's where The ylang ylang, iris, spices, vanilla and patchouli make it a real love potion indeed ... aphrodisiac (at least I think, have felt the touch on only), but I think it is unfortunately discontinued.
Dior Homme (felt only on key, too), or the scrolls of an iris powder, subtle and sophisticated, and whose base notes are a bit leathery a marvel.
Ambre Sultan Serge Lutens too warm, resinous, lush ... An invitation
the dance of seven veils "
Terre d'Hermès, a beautiful "already-classic". An interesting building fresh, citrusy, woody, slightly leathery substance.
That gentlemen, some of my favorites masculine fragrance. But I remain convinced, however, that the argument "fragrance for men" occurred purely "marketing".
You have probably beginning to suspect, I fervently defend the idea that fragrances do not have sex! It is what we love. Point. A
your atomizers gentlemen!
