If you’re looking for an extra-strong juice and love tonka, go for it—you won’t regret it. Great price. I always get compliments when I wear it. It’s sweet but not cloying. Very similar to Pure Havane in the drydown, but with better longevity and sillage. Longevity 10/10, Sillage 10/10, Scent 9/10.
Bogart Pour Homme is way too strong for me. The opening promises a better drydown, but it doesn’t deliver. It doesn’t smell bad, but it feels synthetic—chemical, artificial, heavy, and cloying. It was a blind buy I regret; even though it’s cheap, there are better options for that price. It leaves a massive trail and lasts hours, so I guess that and the low price explain its high ratings. It doesn’t remind me of anything specific, just a cheap mix of several scents: the cherry note from Guerlain’s L’Homme Ideal, the gourmand touch of Calvin Klein’s Shock… I don’t detect the tobacco scent others mention, and I’m missing freshness, subtlety, or elegance. I tried to enjoy it by analyzing its phases, but couldn’t find anything pleasant. Plus, no one in my circle liked it, and I even got a bit dizzy from a single application, ugh… Despite being overwhelming, it has its audience; for those who like it, it offers hours of longevity and sillage. It’s noticeable from the start. Recommended to test first and use light doses.
Bogart Pour Homme is strong, very strong for my taste. The opening promises a better dry down, but in my opinion, it doesn’t deliver. It doesn’t smell bad, but it does seem synthetic, chemical, artificial, very heavy, and cloying. It was a blind buy I regret; even though it’s cheap, there are more interesting options at that price. It leaves a huge trail and lasts hours, and I suppose that plus its good price is why it’s so highly rated. It doesn’t remind me of anything specific, just a mix of several fragrances in a cheap version: the cherry scent of Guerlain L’Homme Ideal, the gourmand touch of Calvin Klein Shock… I don’t perceive the tobacco note others mention, and I miss freshness, subtlety, or elegance. I tried to enjoy it by analyzing the phases, but couldn’t find anything pleasant. Also, no one around me liked it, and even I got dizzy after one application, ugh… Despite being overwhelming, it has its audience; those who like it will get hours of longevity and sillage. It’s noticeable from the start. Yes, recommend trying it first and applying light doses.
The diptych card confirms it’s an Oriental Fougère, and the moment you try it, you can tell. The notes are bergamot, lavender, valley lily, orange blossom, Moroccan rose, Lebanese cedar, oakmoss, vanilla, and tonka. The bergamot opening briefly reminded me of Cartier’s Roadster (they share patchouli and vanilla, plus both are fougères). Then the soft lavender kicks in, adding freshness. At 5 hours, vanilla, tonka bean, orange blossom, and patchouli emerge. By hour 9, the sweet tonka and vanilla persist, joined by cedar and a soft oakmoss. At 14 hours, you can still detect tonka; the vanilla seems to fade or perhaps turns into musk. It’s a true Oriental Fougère: a refreshing start that settles into a long, vanilla and tonka-heavy finish (perfect if you love those notes). The floral heart is weak, and I didn’t sense the rose. Clearly, this is for winter, maybe late autumn or cool spring, best for evening wear. The trail was heavy for the first 5 hours, then moderate. With just 1 ml, it easily lasted over 12 hours.
First, the sample box says it’s an Oriental Fougere (and that’s what it is upon testing). Second, the leaflet lists notes of bergamot, lavender, lily, orange blossom, Moroccan rose, cedar, oakmoss, vanilla, and tonka. The opening with bergamot briefly reminded me of Cartier Roadster (they share patchouli and vanilla, plus the fougere vibe). Then comes the soft lavender that adds freshness. At 5 hours, vanilla, tonka bean, orange blossom, and patchouli emerge. At 9 hours, the sweetness of tonka and vanilla lingers, joined by cedar and oakmoss. At 14 hours, you can still detect tonka, with vanilla fading or perhaps some musk joining in. It’s an Oriental Fougere: a refreshing opening that stabilizes into a long, vanilla and tonka-heavy dry down (if you like that, it’s a good bet). The floral heart is weak, and I never detected the rose. It’s for winter, maybe autumn or cold spring, more for evening wear. The trail was heavy for the first 5 hours, then stabilized to moderate. Using 1 ml, it lasted over 12 hours.
Does anyone know if it’s cloying? (so sweet it gives you nausea or headaches). I’m asking because I want to buy it blind, and I’ve already been burned by Hanae Mori and Sculpture by Nikos; I couldn’t stand them, but I’ve heard good things about Bogart pour homme.
William, I suggest you try it before buying. It’s a bit heavy, you know. It’s not a dud. Two sprays in winter and you’re good. My girlfriend liked it, and that was six hours later. It’s not your typical trendy fragrance, not even close.
I was looking for something long-lasting with a great scent. It convinced me quite a bit. It’s not groundbreaking, but it delivers what I wanted. In the end, I picked this up along with Silver Scent Intense at Casa Bogart. Don’t buy it without trying it first; it’s strong, ideal for mild and cold days.
I loved it. It’s perfect for winter and cold days—strong and heavy—but its dry-down amazed me. The tobacco note comes out perfectly. It’s super long-lasting and very masculine; I don’t see it for daily wear or summer. Given the price, which isn’t too high, I’d definitely add it to my collection. It’s wonderful.
On my skin, tonka bean, lavender, and patchouli dominate. At first, it smells like menthol and tobacco; it’s a beast for men 30+, with brutal projection and sillage and a classic touch. You can grab it online for $20. I’d give it an 8/10.
Thanks, ignaciomdp; better to try it first, since most recommend it for winter, and where I live the climate is very tropical: hot most of the year, and a fragrance like this would be limited to Christmas time.
It’s a perfume I’ve liked quite a bit; I wouldn’t say it’s my favorite, but it smells great and is long-lasting. The only problem is that people around me haven’t finished with it: I surveyed 10 people in my circle, 5 didn’t like it, 2 liked it, and 3 loved it. A comment that caught my attention was that they told me it smells like an old man’s perfume; in my opinion, that’s what you call ‘classics’, haha. I’m 23 years old and my circle is similar. I think it’s for a man 30 years old and up. But given the price, I see it as a first-class perfume, recommend trying it before buying.
I really liked it, though it’s not my favorite. It smells great and lasts long. The only downside is that not everyone around me loves it: I asked 10 people in my circle, and 5 didn’t like it, 2 liked it, and 3 loved it. One comment that stood out was that they said it smells like an old man’s perfume; to me, that means classic, haha. I’m 23, and my circle is too. I think it’s better for men 30 and up. For the price, it seems like a steal, but I’d recommend trying it before buying.
This Roucel-Bijaoui nose duo is also behind Ted Lapidus TL Pour Lui (2003), and this Bogart pour Homme came out a year later, in 2004. Just to say they are two very different works. The first revolves around vanilla, while this one has its reference point in tonka bean. Bogart P.H. is a powerful perfume with great longevity and a trail ranging from moderate to heavy. Despite this, it is equally elegant and sensual. It opens fresh, but you can already guess the fragrance is ambitious in performance. On my skin, the floral notes are very noticeable and offer very attractive masculine elegance and refinement. The dry down is exquisite, highlighting an addictive musk. I consider the composition a masterpiece, a contemporary classic that works during the day and, perhaps, shines more at night. Despite its strength, it’s very wearable; it’s less explosive than the One Man Show series, and I reiterate its elegance, sensuality, and masculinity. Less for summer, it works all year for my olfactory taste. The dry down is delightful, and it doesn’t get boring. Unbeatable price-quality ratio and I recommend it. It’s strong but not overwhelming. 10-10. P.S. It does not contain vanilla, unlike Ted Lapidus TL Pour Lui. The sensation of vanilla in the final dry down comes from the combination of other notes: it’s a fragrance with great longevity that stays moderate yet perceptible, with elegant and solid sweetness.
It smells exactly like a car with a cinderblock full of butts and a lavender air freshener, like a study at Torrespaña in the eighties: tobacco, film tape, and bergamot air freshener. Rough, aromatic, and ultra-camphorated. One unbearable thing.

It didn’t seem unbearable to me, but it was quite weak. I share the rough sensation from Spartacus, especially in the opening. The tobacco note… in the dry down, it’s that typical “spice” of tonka, excessively artificial (sweeter than tonka bean). For me, overly cloying, but the worst part is that “plastic” sensation I can’t shake. I insist, it’s not unpleasant, just quite crude. Sure, it costs little, but the scent doesn’t speak to me, and there’s not much more to say, except that the performance wasn’t as high as people claim online (not just here), though it might still be above average.
It wasn’t quite as unbearable as I feared, but it was quite weak. I share that rough sensation from Spartacus, especially right after spraying. The tobacco note… upon drying, it’s that excessively artificial tonka, sweeter than real vanilla bean. For me, overly cloying, and worst of all is that persistent ‘plastic’ sensation. I insist, it doesn’t reach the point of being unpleasant, but it is quite crude. Granted, it costs very little, but the scent doesn’t speak to me, and there’s little else to add, except that the performance wasn’t as high as read elsewhere (not just on this site), although it might be above average.
A classic that never goes out of style; it seems like a blend of Jean Paul Gaultier’s Le Male, Spicebomb, and Pure Havane. If you like those scents, you’ll love it as much as I do. A bit synthetic, but rich. Buy blind if you like sweet, strong, and masculine scents. SCENT 7 PROJECTION 8
Mmm, it’s not a bad fragrance, but it seems like they mixed it with water. It lacks character, is very superficial, has no depth, and poor projection. It’s a rich scent but lacks body, which is why I didn’t like it…

It’s one of those perfumes that smells like a car air freshener, and within that category, it could be ‘cheap’ or ‘expensive’. This Bogart smells like a cheap car air freshener. Sweet, artificial, rough, simple… I didn’t like it. Nothing compared to Ted Lapidus pour Homme, Black, Sport, or Gold, which are works of art. At least I got it cheap, 11 euros.
Update: Had to give it away, I couldn’t handle it.
Splendid fragrance! I’ve been searching for a signature scent, and this is a top contender. The opening is a strong blond tobacco note (like opening a pack of cigarettes and sticking your nose right in the box) with a sweet, moderate accompaniment that intensifies over time until it becomes distinctly vanilla. There’s a floral component that adds sensuality before fading away. It gets increasingly masculine. It’s related to Versace The Dreamer (this one is more delicate, less vanilla, and soapy). JB Pour Homme is rougher, more powerful, and chaotic. With Jacques Bogart, the cigarette smell hits you at the start; in The Dreamer, it shows up at the end. You could say The Dreamer is someone in a white shirt, tie, and gel-slicked hair, while JB is that same person with a loosened tie, shirt untucked, and messy hair. I don’t use more than two sprays because it’s a power fragrance. The duration is well over 10 hours. I’m sure it’s a great blind buy and will please both the wearer and those around them. Accessible price. Usage: for any occasion, adjusting sprays based on climate and time of day. If you don’t like sweet perfumes, even a little, go for The Dreamer instead, as it’s more gentle; JB has a sweet, vanilla finish that many people (including me) don’t enjoy, though it can be controlled with fewer sprays.
Spectacular fragrance! I was looking for my go-to perfume and this is a strong contender. It starts with a very potent blond tobacco note (like sticking your nose in a carton of cigarettes) with a moderate sweet touch that intensifies until it becomes vanilla-like. There’s a fleeting sensual floral note. Over time, it becomes increasingly masculine. It reminds me of Versace ‘The Dreamer’ (this one is more delicate, without vanilla, and smells like soap) and JB pour Homme (rougher, more powerful, and chaotic). In Jacques Bogart, the tobacco comes out at the start, whereas in Versace it’s at the end. ‘The Dreamer’ is the white shirt, tie, and gel-hair look; JB is the same guy but with the tie loose, shirt unbuttoned, and hair messy. I don’t use more than two sprays because it’s a power perfume. It lasts over 10 hours (unless I shower). You can buy it blind; it pleases both the wearer and those who smell it. Affordable price in Argentina. Usage: for everything, adjusting sprays based on climate and time of day. If you don’t like sweet perfumes, even a little, go for ‘The Dreamer’ as it’s more mild, since JB ends sweet and vanilla-like (many people don’t like it, nor do I, but it’s controllable with fewer sprays).
I know the vintage Bogart line like Signature or One Man Show, but this breaks that scheme as it smells much more modern from the start than its predecessors. It’s a strong aroma with lasting projection, that’s the main pro given that we live in an era where perfumes are reformulated to last less. This Bogart Pour Homme performs strongly in that aspect. The opening is good as I sense it as a mix of lavender and tobacco, but in the drydown it’s sweet and vanilla to the max. The vanilla scent smells synthetic. Its aroma reminds me a bit of Versace The Dreamer but much more potent than the latter. Personally, I don’t regret buying it since I like strong and masculine perfumes and this fulfills its purpose as it’s an elegant and sweet fragrance. Also, its price is optimal, very accessible anywhere in the world. In Argentina, it’s around $25 USD.
I know Bogart’s classics like Signature or One Man Show, but this one breaks the mold: it smells much more modern from the very first moment. It’s a powerful scent with lasting projection, which is key these days when everything gets reformulated to last less. Bogart Pour Homme delivers here. The opening is good; I smell lavender and tobacco, but as it dries down, it becomes sweet and vanilla-forward. The vanilla smells a bit synthetic. It reminds me of Versace “The Dreamer” but with way more punch. No regrets on this purchase; I like strong, masculine perfumes, and this one delivers—it’s elegant and sweet. Plus, the price is optimal and very accessible; in Argentina, it’s around $25.
Super potent fragrance, as there are very few left, very masculine despite having a vanilla-coumarin tonka bean base; I can perceive the tobacco scent, I thought a long time ago that my sense of smell was so chromatographic, but I see reviews that agree with mine, I think it could be due to an effect formed by the union of neroli, oakmoss, and tonka bean. A fragrance so masculine that it doesn’t invite women to wear it.
It’s a very rich fragrance. Although they don’t list it as similar, it smells very similar to L’Homme Ideal by Guerlain to me. If you’re looking for something more affordable and similar, this is a good option.
I don’t know which batch I got that doesn’t smell like anything, not even pulling the trigger like ‘Trigger Happy’. Maybe it’s because I’ve been hearing about ‘True Aromatic Bombs’ lately. Curiously, something similar happened with Elizabeth Arden’s Mambo, which I like and use regularly for daily wear now, hoping this is the case. Edited March 2024: All good, I’m wearing it right now and my sense of smell has adapted favorably to this treasure.
Hello, there’s a Marly perfume (not the Layton mentioned in ‘it reminds me of…’) I can’t remember which one, but it’s a clone. It has that synthetic smell, also present in Le Male. It seems niche brands haven’t discovered the powder, have they?
A true hidden gem in the spotlight of perfumery. Incredible projection, sillage, and longevity, brutal. Although it doesn’t declare almonds, it smells quite similar to L’Homme Ideal by Guerlain in the drydown.
I think no one has said it, but this perfume follows the Burberry London line; they’re not twins, but I sense that cinnamon touch, and even sweet tobacco, although both notes aren’t declared ironically. I received the London on the 21st, and I love it; I had heard of it in a store but didn’t notice its scent was quite fleeting, it’s a pity it’s so exquisite. Sincerely, Bogart seems like a better fragrance than London, as it follows a similar path, projects much better, feels warm, sweet, slightly fresh due to the accompanying lavender, and I find it spectacular in quality and price, even at a better price than the previous one. Definitely a hidden gem and it came out 2 years before London (2006), Bogart Pour Homme (2004). I think it’s great that it remains hidden like this, no one had mentioned it to me before, I found it by chance online and ordered it blindly, and I was actually fascinated. It reminds me totally of Christmas, autumn, and winter. For everything it conveys, it deserves a 10/10.
I really liked a Valentine’s Day gift; it’s not a vintage perfume like Bogart, etc., however, it has reminiscences of those times but updated, ending in a very pleasant trail. I think it’s highly recommended for those over 30 to try it, even though it’s pricier in Argentina, it remains accessible. Excellent price-to-quality ratio.
It has that early 2000s scent, very similar to Le Male to me but sweeter. It’s not a youthful fragrance, but it has great sillage and longevity on the skin. Ideal for cold climates, autumn, and winter. For €15, it’s an excellent purchase without breaking the bank, and it’s an aroma that won’t be overused since it’s not a trend. Recommended. In my case, the atomizer is fine, as I’ve seen problems with others. Batch from 2022.
Bogart Pour Homme is a very affordable fragrance with an excellent quality-to-price ratio. The opening is potent, citrusy, floral, and lavender-like (almost like multi-surface cleaner, which is true); it’s not unpleasant, but it can be overwhelming for sensitive people. You need to moderate the spray (max 3-4) or apply it an hour before entering enclosed spaces; I use 6-8 sprays half an hour before leaving for work, and it lasts all day, at least 8 hours, without bothering others. The drydown moderates it and becomes pleasant, aromatic, sweet, floral, and woody. It’s an unconventional but masculine and noticeable combination, like Quorum or Brut Cologne, very different from the more discreet One Man Show. A good option, unique, and cheap. It’s not easily accessible in Mexico, only online; if Quorum isn’t that common and they sell it in supermarkets, this one is even rarer, which makes it peculiar. Not for daily wear, it would be the Monday fragrance (Godinez-style speaking, it’s the most formal day). For about $20 USD for 100ml, it’s a fair deal.
