Caron Pour Homme Men Eau de Toilette 125 ml

Product Information

As for the age range most suited to this fragrance, it’s a very refined and ornate blend. Therefore, it’s not something that would be easily worn by younger men. Instead, this is something best worn by older men approaching their forties. As an opening, the head is refreshing yet mild with unconventional properties for a modern man’s fragrance. Heart Notes Ce qui est notable est la qualité extrême des ingrédients: vanille et lavande sont tous deux d’une grande noblesse. Quand j’ouvre le bouchon de ce parfum il m’arrive souvent de ne plus pouvoir arrêter de le renifler! Quelle finesse! la vanille est tellement naturelle qu’on en mangerait.

Despite entering the base, the vanilla and lavender continue to interact for a fully accorded experience. As the clary sage and sandalwood begin to evaporate, oak moss and tonka bean work together to great an accord reminiscent of freshly-cut grass. Its sweet essence blends well with the lavender and vanilla whilst a faint note of musk creates a deep and alluring amber. Caron’s Life-Cycle, Wake & StrengthIndeed, Pour Un Homme de Caron is far from masculine by today’s standards and may be seen as something of an oddity. As mentioned earlier, before its release over 80 years ago, men would wear much fainter eau de colognes or English lavender. Pour Un Homme was an extension of these by adding complex notes and accords that were usually reserved for feminine fragrances.

Les femmes aussi apprécièrent ce portrait impeccable et galant qu'on faisait de leurs hommes. Depuis, l'alchimie fonctionne toujours, puisque ce parfum représente 40% des ventes de la Maison Caron. Un elixir de jeunesse !Indeed, the bottle is strongly reminiscent of Art Deco design with an angular cap and bevelled edges. It’s a bit messy but both sources seem to agree that Zizanie was actually released in the 1970s! That said, there’s a rumour that Sinatra wore it when he met Ava Gardner so I’m not sure what to believe. Nevertheless, I’ve also heard similar that Zizanie was initially marketed for both men and women at the time. Perhaps it was rebranded for men in the 1970s as the fashion for gendered fragrances was at its peak in this period? As mentioned earlier, Caron has stated that it will respect the fragrance’s heritage and not sway by changing this. Although Caron was first designed as an Oriental Aromatic, its properties today are closer to a traditional aromatic fougère. With no vintage blends to compare with, it’s uncertain whether this is due to evolving families or reformulations. With its structured blend and numerous accords, Pour Un Homme features an intuitive life-cycle. A refreshing opening slowly transitions towards a sweet and heady base that is evocative of elegant and traditional fragrances.

In fact, its alluring transitions would be fitting even for a woman’s fragrance despite its delicately masculine structure. Therefore, this is a fragrance that is almost unisex in nature. Presentation and Value For Money Lavender was Daltroff’s favourite note while his associate, Félicie Wanpouille, was fond of vanilla. Daltroff was in love with Wanpouille and therefore sought to merge the two. They married sometime after before Daltroff, a Polish jew, fled Occupied France for the USA. In this review, we tested a 200 ml (6.7 Oz) bottle, which despite its size, felt ergonomic and comfortable to hold. With its deeply aromatic notes, Pour Un Homme de Caron is a decisively spring fragrance, which works well in the summer too. The overall accords are deeply evocative of warm sunny mornings and it would be hard to imagine this worn during the winter.Avec son flacon carré, sa fragrance virile et authentique, son assurance naturelle et élégante, Il fallait un faire-valoir puissant, exigeant et charismatique, d'une séduction décontractée,... In spite of its simplicity, the bouquet is complex and tantalising. Evocative of a spring morning as the sun touches the dewy greenery, it’s quite breathtaking and a unique experience. Meanwhile, the clary sage and sandalwood notes are mild yet create depth behind the lavender and vanilla. Base Notes
