Highly recommended; I wear it in the morning and at night, and its aroma is noticeable.
It’s a very good fragrance; the wood aroma is well apparent in the opening. In my opinion, it’s one of my favorites. It’s a shame Givenchy discontinued it; at least in my country, you can’t get it anymore, only online. It’s a very formal yet casual scent, ideal for formal suits. It has moderate longevity, and the sillage is noticeable at about 4 square meters in the first two hours, but over time it stays on the skin and the sillage diminishes. But it’s very good and I love it.
I tested this fragrance without knowing what it was about; the bottle seemed striking and sophisticated. At first, it didn’t grab my attention much, with a typical citrus opening, lemony notes, and grapefruit. After half an hour, I noticed other notes that took me to a kitchen… in a good way: I felt grapefruit mixed with herbs, maybe rosemary and pepper (the pepper made my nose tingle). Then came a soft trail of lavender and dried lemon peel, and that’s when I was captivated. The dry-down is powdery, dry, classic, soft, and elegant. Sometimes I felt it was sweet and woody. I think everyone has their own experience applying it to their skin; I liked it, even though I hadn’t even noticed this EDT before. Suitable for the 25 to 50 age range without issues, for daily and semi-formal use.
Today I tested this fragrance on my skin without knowing what it was about; the bottle seemed striking and sophisticated. The first few minutes didn’t grab me much, with the typical citrus opening, herbal notes, and grapefruit. After half an hour, other notes emerged that transported me to a kitchen—in a good way: I smelled the grapefruit mixed with another citrus and herbs, maybe rosemary and pepper (the pepper is obvious and made my nose tingle). Then came a soft trail reminiscent of lavender and dried lemon peel, which captivated me. The dry-down is powdery, dry, classic, soft, and elegant. It’s an aroma that sometimes smells sweet and woody. I think everyone has their own experience when applying it to their skin; personally, I liked it, even though I hadn’t noticed this EDT before. Ideal for ages 25 to 50, for daily and semi-formal use.
Well, the potency of the 2002 version has become quite timid compared to this 2016 batch I’ve had for months. Still, it carries the Givenchy DNA: elegant and formal, yet rough and simple, with that old-school sensuality, minus the tonka bean. It’s a woody classic with a sharp citrus opening and a hint of alcohol; the rest of the notes fade into the background or go unnoticed. It smells like another era—manly and meant for personal enjoyment. The trail is low and the skin longevity is moderate.
Well… from the potency of the 2002 version to the timidity of this 2016 one (I’ve had it for a few months)… It still reflects Givenchy’s DNA: elegance and formality, but rough and simple, with that sensuality from another era without tonka bean. A classic woody with a marked citrus opening and an alcoholic touch; the other notes stay in the background (or I don’t perceive them). It’s from another era, virile, but for personal enjoyment. Low sillage and moderate longevity on the skin.
Good woody/citrus fragrance, cultured, very masculine, and wearable. I love that it’s by Alberto Morillas, but unfortunately, the reformulation is a disaster in terms of performance: it lasts a maximum of 3 hours on my skin and the projection is barely an hour. It’s very close to the legendary YSL M7, also by Morillas. You can smell lavender, cedar, mandarin, and grapefruit; maybe other notes are very subtle, but the scent is one of the best. With this reformulation, the ranking drops. Ideal for semi-formal occasions, for men 25 and up, refined and serious, more for daytime use since it lacks romantic sweetness. Longevity: 3/10, Versatility: 9/10, Projection: 5/10, Fixation: 4/10, Quality: 5/10, Sillage: 7/10, Scent: 8/10, Total: 5/10. If it’s vintage, it would be better.
Givenchy Pour Homme is woody, citrusy, spicy, and herbal. Citrus, vetiver, and cedar come out first, bringing freshness and elegance. The spices are fresh, like coriander and something similar to cardamom, plus a herbal labdanum note that I’ve noticed in Cartier Roadster before. Its development is almost linear and formal in style. Although it’s spicy, it works well in spring and autumn because the citrus notes hold up and it’s not heavy. It lasted 5 hours, but close to the skin; I don’t know if the early formulas were more potent. Unlike the Blue Label, this version is drier and more formal, which made it less popular and now it’s discontinued. I liked it, but the poor performance takes off points. It’s a mix between Cartier Declaration, Boss Bottled, and Gucci Pour Homme I. Recommended for lovers of that style.

Beto Ruiz: Is it your skin’s pH or was it reformulated? I have a 2008 bottle and can testify to its great longevity. To be honest, I’d wear it in the morning and still smell it the next day, though it stayed very close to the skin.
Batch 3×01 from October 2013. Citrus, spicy, and woody. Pour Homme blends the citrus notes so well that none stand out alone, achieving just the right balance between acidic and sweet. There’s an herbal-spicy note, probably from coriander. It dries down to a cedar base with a very subtle soapy lavender thread. You can tell there’s a perfect harmony. It feels like a relaunch after being discontinued, with some changes to the notes. Very masculine and pleasant for the office or daily wear, highlighting masculinity and sobriety. I keep it among my favorites for adding maturity and a unique masculinity. The trail and longevity are moderate in this batch; if later batches drop further, it’s not worth it since it becomes too discreet after two hours. Rating: 4/5.
October 2013 batch: citrus, spicy, and woody. Givenchy Pour Homme blends the citrus notes skillfully, balancing the acidity and sweetness without either dominating. I detect a spicy lemon note, perhaps from coriander, and it closes with cedar and a very soft, soapy lavender thread. The harmony is perfect. It seems like a relaunch after a hiatus, with subtle changes. Very masculine and sober, ideal for the office or daily wear; it offers a mature masculinity that few achieve. Sillage and longevity are moderate in this batch (about two hours), so if later batches dropped even further, it’s not worth it for being so discreet. 4/5.
I already found it and it will be my next purchase, and definitely not blind.
It’s one of my favorites. I’m on my second 100ml bottle and will buy another to stock up. It has elegant and exquisite sillage; my wife feels it’s very masculine but with a kind virility. It must be due to the balance between the woody base and citrus with pleasant notes of fruits and flowers. It’s not a common scent; I don’t associate it with any other perfume. Good longevity, at least six hours, though on my skin I’ve noticed more than 24.
Buy blind. And it’s not just bad, it’s terrible. Nothing at all. As if Alberto Morillas created something of such poor quality. Generic aroma with no sillage or longevity.
Its citrus opening is very good and the wood blend works perfectly. I’ve had it for several years and use it for important outings. I agree with others: it smells like lemonade. The downside is the sillage and longevity; you have to apply more. Ideal for daily wear, work, and informal daily outings, all year round. I have the 2013 batch; you won’t regret its scent. Try it on skin first.
This review is for one I bought in 2008. Givenchy’s Pour Homme was excellent, very balanced, with moderate sillage for about three hours and proverbial longevity of 24 hours on my skin. I don’t know much about notes, so I’ll leave that to the experts, but it had very natural woods; smelling it felt like a lumberyard with freshly cut cedar—the best wood scent I’ve ever known. It conveyed elegance, maturity, sophistication, security, serenity, and virility. It was very classy. Although I’d miss it, I’m terrified to buy it now due to reports of bad reformulations affecting performance and sillage. It’s a pity to throw away such a work of art.
Review based on a Bach bottle from 2015 that arrived in my collection by chance… I remember testing it when it launched, but my commitments didn’t allow me to buy it. Pour Homme had a long presence, a devoted following, and suffered the glory and fall of this emblematic scent under the Givenchy banner. Olfactorily, Morillas and Ermenidis propose a semi-classic aroma where the wood is a hostage to the floral (labdanum, iris) and the spicy notes. The opening shows classic accords: lavender harmonized with semi-dark wood and a slight illusion of ebony, polished with citrus juices that fade after 15 minutes to bloom subtly if the temperature rises. It brings me instant memories of Nina Ricci’s Memoir d’Homme, sharing style and launch year. It’s a semi-formal to formal ensemble that radiates acidified wood, with one foot in the past and the other in the present. To be honest, it’s a linear beauty that shows great understanding between the creators and the Pour Homme emblem. I don’t know when production stopped, but it has been disappearing; some report reformulation and lower performance. My Bach 5B01 bottle behaves well, lasting up to 8 hours without issues. I just wish for more longevity in the top notes. A must if you like classic approaches and this style that steers clear of trends. If you’re a collector, look for the few remaining ones. All four seasons.
I was lucky to find this 2015 batch of Bach; I tested it before but commitments prevented me from buying it. Pour Homme by Givenchy was a classic with many fans. Olfactorily, Morillas and Ermenidis created something semi-classical where the wood yields to floral and spicy notes. The opening is lavender with dark wood and citrus that disappear in 15 minutes but return subtly if the temperature rises. It instantly reminds me of Memoir d’Homme by Nina Ricci. It’s semi-formal, elegant, and blends past and present. It’s a linear beauty that shows a great understanding of the brand’s status. I don’t know when production stopped, but they say it was reformulated and performance dropped. My 2015 bottle lasts decently for 8 hours, though it lacks hours in the top notes. A must-have only if you like the classics and want to stay away from trends. If you’re a collector, look for the few remaining ones. 4 seasons.
I agree it reminds me of Memoir d’Homme by Nina Ricci. I bought it by mistake while looking for a substitute for Givenchy’s Blue Label, my favorite when I started collecting perfumes. I love the freshness of the cardamom. Maybe I preferred Blue Label more; I’m not sure.
Smells like a loving, protective man—very attractive to women looking for a husband and to gay men seeking a serious relationship. Perfect for cold weather; imagine Turin in autumn, wearing a silk scarf at Al Bicerin, having a cortado with a whisky and chocolate tart. The downside is that they reformulated it, so it no longer lasts or has the sillage of before.
To me, it smells very much like Herrera for Men; it follows that same line.
Smells like Aqva by Bulgari but without the heavy marine vibe, with a dry-down that hints at Cartier. It’s fresh, soft, and elegant—perfect for the office since no one will complain. It has a sensual sweetness that works well for dates with a known partner, but because it’s subtle and lacks projection, it’s not suitable for hitting on people or going out at noisy nightclubs. Only works on warm nights when you’re close to the person. Its biggest flaw is that it doesn’t last at all.
