  Strong opening with bergamot and violet leaves. Then I feel it evolves into a smoky scent similar to the rubber in Dior’s Fahrenheit, which lasts quite a while. It keeps evolving, and then green notes with leather appear, making it reminiscent of VC&A’s Tsar. It’s an elegant perfume that evolves in different ways, like Lalique’s others. It has good longevity and a moderate to heavy trail at the start, but it drops down to stay closer to the skin, though always present. It’s more for mature tastes, like those who prefer Tsar or Fahrenheit, although this works as a modern alternative. Honestly, I can’t comment on the contribution of the oud, as I don’t know it well enough to distinguish it in full. There is wood, yes, and according to the pyramid it should be oud, but it also gets confused with leather and a wet forest. Update Sept 2013: in the dry down, the oud is clearly felt; now I confirm it; after smelling it for a long time, it reminded me of that same note in Yves Saint Laurent’s M7 that I tried ten years ago, as a woody, spicy note, hard to describe. PS: my version is the first one from 2011, normal bottle.

  I went to try the two Laliques available at a store where I usually shop (Fleur de Cristal and this one), and I really struggle to decide which I like more; both are beautiful and suit me perfectly. However, I lean towards this one… simply because this combination of oud, labdanum, violet, and saffron, along with my beloved tonka bean, has me head over heels. From the point of view of men’s fragrances, I say it’s among the best you can buy outside the niche. It has everything: elegance, refinement, beauty, presence, uniqueness… it smells exquisite. I’d recommend trying it on skin first; its muted pepper note (not spicy, but it’s there) along with the soft, hyper-refined musk and bergamot might throw a slight soft camphoraceous note for some. The oud is resinous and clean… combined with labdanum and saffron, it reminds me of certain nuances in my New York Amber ~ Bond Nº9; but definitely, the violet and its leaves add their own touch, making it more floral, light, fresh, green, and clean. I liked it a lot! On my skin, it feels like a sweet, resinous smoky note with saffron, utterly charming, staying close to the skin. It conveys serenity, confidence, and elegance. Another one I’d love to own.

  I was curious to try it for the bergamot and violet leaves, wanting to see the combination with labdanum and oud. The experience was pleasant; I really liked this Lalique lotion. In the opening, the violet leaves and bergamot are noticeable, making it fresh, but only for the first few minutes. After that, you feel something like rubber or leather, as Prieth mentioned, and then the woody and spicy notes enter, giving a tobacco aroma and something mossy but dry, probably due to the oud, saffron, and musk. Very masculine with excellent longevity; maybe it doesn’t have much of a trail, but it’s noticeable and doesn’t go unnoticed. I see it for daily office wear and some night outings. Totally timeless and without age limits, although it probably suits someone over 30 better.

  The scent is super elegant. What I feel most is the violet and a touch of sweet tobacco at the start. I also notice some alcohol at the end, then the violet, bergamot, and violet leaves continue. I haven’t smelled the oud yet; I’m still testing it and haven’t reached the dry down. If you know the Diplomatico from Poland before communism, this is similar. I don’t know if they still make it there or if the Consul cologne is still available; both were excellent. It quickly entered my Top 10. So much class in this Lalique EDT. My respects. 9/10. I put it on at 8:00 AM and it’s 3:30 PM and I can still smell it on my clothes and skin. I work in air conditioning and it’s calm, but when I go out into the heat, there it is again. I own many perfumes and oud oils, and I don’t smell it here; it must be very discreet in the background; it has to be a minimal amount because oud is a very strong note, even if synthetic, since pure oil is very expensive.

  It’s a classic perfume, for older people. It smells like sandalwood, perhaps due to the violet. Then it turns soft with bergamot and pepper. It’s not my style, but it’s not for young people or anyone under 30, unless you like classics, like Azzaro Pour Homme and that style.

  I bought it blind based on trusted reviews, with low expectations after being let down by other Lalique scents (White, Pour Homme, and the legendary Encre Noire). The opening is fantastic and left me speechless. It’s different, original, and striking. Yes, you can smell the alcohol, but soon the saffron, bergamot, and a green note emerge, followed by tonka bean, pepper, and a very light, well-worked oud that adds a touch without being heavy. As usual, totally synthetic. I don’t like oud, but here it’s subtle and works well. I didn’t really pick up on the violet. After the great opening, it drops a bit as it dries down, but it remains good or at least interesting. My bottle doesn’t have the website’s engraving, just a sticker with the name. Longevity is good with a soft trail after the initial explosion. It’s not a masterpiece, but it’s above average.

  Clarification for the clueless: the version with the man playing the flute is the collector’s edition, in EDP, and very pricey due to the crystal and the bottle design, not the scent itself. In Paris, near Vendôme, they have a shop selling very expensive crystal jewelry and lamps. The standard version with the plaque has been reformulated. The old one was acceptable, but the new one has been left poor and bland. I understand @Pplu’s disappointment. For me: 0 charm, 0 style, 0 quality. I already wrote a review that I deleted because it no longer matches the current version.

  You’re absolutely right, Lalique is about crystal and jewelry. That’s why the box comes with a booklet and exquisite, expensive crystal shards. That explains the price of the cut bottle, just like the Bentley one. I love the line; it’s super elegant and refined. I own White, Hommage, and Lion; they’re all extraordinary and stand out from the crowd. It’s a matter of taste; this is one I’d buy blind.

  It’s true, it smells elegant and is high quality, but it’s just not my style, I admit it. It reminds me a bit of Cartier’s Roadster. Now I have to see if I can swap it for something else. Hehe.

  I love it. Green-floral opening, slightly alcoholic with a leather touch. The violet is noticeable, along with its leaves, saffron, and a hint of pepper. As it settles, it transforms into a woody, resinous, and smoky scent due to the labdanum and oud, with a touch of sweet tonka bean. Over time, it gradually becomes musky. It performed well; I could still smell it on my skin after 10 hours. It was a big hit. At times it slightly reminds me of Fahrenheit, probably due to the violet leaves and that leather hint from the saffron. Very versatile: suitable for spring, summer, autumn, and winter, day and night. Lasting longevity and moderate trail.

  Sometimes the difference isn’t well received… It’s been a year and I’ve only used it twice. It’s not for me. I bought it blind looking for an oud different from the typical one (oud + rose + saffron). What I notice least here is the oud, and the idea that it eventually smells like Yves Saint Laurent’s M7 is debatable. This is violets and more violets bathed in musk, a balsamic oud, a touch of saffron, and labdanum. I can’t find the other notes. At times it reminds me of Timbuktu by L’Artisan Parfumeur, perhaps due to the balsamic sensation of the violets and the oud. The trail is heavy for over 2 hours, then moderate for another 4 or 5, and lasts comfortably on the skin for about 8 hours. It’s not bad, but neither is it a ‘must-have’ nor a masterpiece. Lalique has more interesting fragrances, though this doesn’t diminish it.

  If you don’t know it, prepare yourself: it’s atypical and moves away from mass-market stereotypes. It’s not for childish noses, but for a seductive man who knows what he wants. The opening of saffron, violets, pepper, and woods evolves into something spicy, talcum-like, fresh, and floral, with a memory of dry tea leaves to prepare a fermented touch. The saffron sets the tone, considered a treasure by the Arabs who perfumed their chambers and palaces. It’s a 9.5 quality, with an aromatic bubble and trail of 9, 7 hours of fixation depending on pH, and an intermediate/high price in the niche range.

  I’ve worn it for a few days and it’s really hit the spot, very well crafted for the price (I grabbed it online for around €15). It’s true that the alcohol stings a bit at first, but once that hits, the citrus note emerges. To me, it sounds a bit synthetic and fades quickly, but it gives that effervescent freshness the opening aims for. What really dominates is the violet. I wouldn’t call it woody, despite the background oud (which is more felt than noticed, providing a sweet/oriental base in the drydown); it’s basically floral. In fact, even if they don’t say it, it smells like talc and roses throughout the evolution (maybe the labdanum is doing that). It has some resemblance to Fahrenheit due to the violet, but this one is more classic and clean, without the eighties rebellion. The trail holds up well for a few hours, and it lingers on the skin for 5-6 hours (bottle from 2019). In short, it’s very versatile and a great option for the price.

  I’m not sure if it’s the batch, but I detect three clear notes: saffron, pepper, and labdanum. The violets, their leaves, the oud, and the citrus barely come through, and the tonka bean is nonexistent. It smells the same when it first sprays as it does when dry, where only the labdanum remains. There’s none of that ‘dirty oud’ people talk about, just a hint of incense deep in the drydown. It breaks commercial molds; it’s a difficult scent at first but becomes addictive with wear. It’s not overpowering, rather discreet and elegant, with incredible longevity. The bottle is gorgeous and worth it on its own. Definitely for expert noses. 8/10

  I can’t find the words to describe this beautiful fragrance. Gorgeous violets and so much more. It makes me feel incredibly good when I wear it and radiates natural elegance. If you have the chance to try it or get a decant, do it. I’d even recommend buying it blind, as long as you really love violet scents or perfumes like Dior’s Fahrenheit (though they aren’t exactly alike).

  Violet, violet, and more violet, with a touch of oud and a very ripe plum base. I love it: it’s personal, luxurious, and nothing generic, even if the opening is a strange punch. I’d rate it 8.5/10. Edition dated 13/09/2020: the dry-down features spectacular incense.

  Bought it blind and have no regrets: the opening is refined, unique, and violet-forward, much less dark than Narciso For Him, like a crisp white shirt with character from saffron. Projects well at arm’s length, with bursts lasting three hours before the violet blends into darker notes in the heart, where musk, wood, and dry labdanum enter. It doesn’t evolve much; changes are subtle, but the vibe stays consistent. It’s pretty, bright without being citrusy, lighter-bodied than ideal but easy to wear and long-lasting. I’ll love it more over time—it’s safe, versatile, and uncommon; plus, you can actually smell it, which is rare for fleeting fragrances. I tested it at Primor after buying. Lasted 7 hours with 5 sprays. The bottle is elegant, but the cap spins and feels cheap. Compared to Narciso, while the other has more body and presence, this is more wearable and feels like an awesome signature scent: bright, dry, and brilliant. Within the dry floral style, it’s excellent and I’m liking it more each day. Duration: 7 hours. Projection: 1 meter for 2–2.5 hours. Scent: 7.2/10. Emotional impact: No. Originality: 6.8/10. Price: €17.60 (50ml). Recommended: Moderate.

  Beautiful and strange fragrance. I’ve read it’s linear, but to me, it’s quite the opposite: it evolves constantly and unfolds many notes. I swear there’s tobacco, tea, or incense, even though they aren’t listed. The opening and dry down are spectacular, worthy of products that cost four times as much. In the middle, the violet sweetens before turning more animalic; a strange evolution that might turn many off. If violet is already risky, mixing it with oud is an exercise in tightrope walking. Creatively, it’s very interesting, a true feat. What I’m not sure about is the occasion: I imagine something formal, because it has a classic, elegant touch, yet I’ve had a 50ml bottle for two years and barely use it outside the house. As an olfactory experience, I love it. I don’t know if it will last long because I don’t see a commercial path for it, besides being so cheap. In any case, my admiration to the creators for daring with something so risky and different. Chapeau!

  This is one of those perfumes that, the moment you put it on, screams that you’re different. I noticed it instantly during the trial: an intense, warm bath of violets with a sweet, woody touch. I bought it because it was cheap, the afternoon was lovely, and my girlfriend was smiling; every waft made my heart sound like a harp. I studied it obsessively for days, even to wear to work. I liked it, but the key is understanding why. I’d never smelled violets like this; they don’t remind me of Fahrenheit, Narciso, or Grey Flannel. The floral blends with a sweet note that gives me the olfactory illusion of quince, without being gourmand, yet with that specific focus. Maybe it’s the oud, which I can’t quite isolate. Others mention that “alcoholic” tone; in my opinion, it pays homage to masculinity: it’s not the smell of cheap alcohol, but a fresh, spicy, almost mentholated sensation—that great feeling we all have after shaving with a straight razor and applying Aqua Velva or Kinesia Artic. That crisp, energetic, ready-for-anything atmosphere. In the early 90s, perfumes like Safari, Escada, or YSL’s Jazz lived off this. Very masculine, retro yet modern, classic but not old, with good longevity. Hommage a l’Homme is a total discovery halfway between floral and fern, a delight for enduring the stress of the mask and this damn era.

  LALIQUE is a brand that fascinates me. For its quality-price ratio, for its honesty, for its professionalism, for its resistance to the mercenary cliff into which all designer and niche brands are falling. Is Lalique niche? Well, it has a range of ‘Exclusive Collections’ that obviously are. Is Lalique designer? Undoubtedly, because being designer isn’t confined to clothing, but to any other type of design. Lalique is world-famous for its glassware, decorative components, furniture, and jewelry. I present to you Lalique, a designer niche that doesn’t advertise and doesn’t squander on Jennifer Lawrence or Johnny Depp, to cite two faces of the once more honorable, now Dior. I adore LALIQUE: Encre Noir for Homme (its three versions), Encre Noir pour Femme, Perles, Lalique White, L’Insoumis, the Hommage pour Homme (normal and Voyageur), Lion pour Homme, Equus pour Homme, L’Amour, Amethyst, etc. It’s one of my favorite brands because I can afford to buy their perfumes (in Spain they are very affordable online) and because I like their scents and performances. The Olfactory Family of HOMMAGE À L’HOMME is very defined: Woody Spicy. It’s woody with a secular wood, coated with the scent of old books and leather armchairs. A lordly, masculine, and classic wood that is imperishable. A wood impregnated with unaged Virginia tobacco (not declared), of natural aspect and barely manufactured. A tobacco that wraps you in a paternal and protective sensation. I don’t detect that promised violet in its sheet, if anything a soft lily of the valley mixed with a faint lavender, but without reaching being a barber shop perfume. The spicy note is soft but detectable: saffron and pepper are dosed with patience; little by little, without the anaphylactic shock of outright oriental perfumes but with a parsimonious imposition of light caresses that overlap without noise. The woody touch doesn’t come exactly from oud, according to the sheet, but from teak, ebony, chestnut, and oak, macerated in vats of a soft amontillado. That smell of a natural wood furniture store, of unaffordable prices, that spreads between Mayfair and Belgravia. The drydown is exquisite and lasts on clothes for several days, with evocation of library fireplaces and desks of rancid lineage. Luxurious scent at an affordable price. A BIT OF HISTORY: Since 2008 the Maison Lalique belongs to the Swiss Art & Fragrance group. This group is dedicated to the creation, development, marketing, and worldwide distribution of luxury items. In 2013 it acquired Cosmetics Perfumes Services (CPS), from Ury, France, founded in 2005 and which already possessed Lalique Parfums and Jaguar Fragrances. Currently Art&Fragrance owns Lalique Parfums, Parfums Grès, Jaguar, Bentley, and Alain Delon. Little is said about this Swiss multinational, but I deduce it is not comparable to the horrible L’Oreal or LMVH. If we look at the brands they work with (Lalique, Grès, Jaguar, Bentley, and Delon), none has lost quality or performance, nor has been reformulated. They remain at very affordable prices. They don’t run advertising campaigns. They work quietly. The name ‘HOMMAGE A L’HOMME’ arises (just like its brother ‘Hommage à L’Homme Voyageur’) from an idea by René Lalique, stemming from the tribute to the legendary French luxury transatlantic ‘Le Normandie’ of the 1930s. Its bottle is inspired by the Art Deco collection of bathroom accessories Duncan created by René Lalique himself.

  What a wonder this is. Suitable for 80% of occasions a man might face in life and everyone (who has a nose) will think it smells good. For office, outdoors, daytime, nighttime, dates. Less for putting on at the beach or after the gym; it’s an all-terrain vehicle that exudes class.

  A well-crafted scent with its own identity. Well done for that. I won’t argue about ‘naturalness’ (which there won’t be), but it doesn’t feel artificial, correct for that reason too. It’s a simple oud from some house, clean (Firmenich?). The violet has little ‘push’, it’s neither too green nor too balsamic (like candies), it gives it a certain texture along with the saffron that makes it ‘powdery’. The big drawback, like for most, is the performance, which falls a bit below average. Personally, I like it more than Encre Noir; in comparison it seems more balanced, wearable (for all seasons) and with a more natural feeling.

  A fragrance that has captivated me and with which I’ve gotten a bit obsessed. I read about Lalique and their famous Encre Noire, tried to test it in several perfumeries in my city but there were no testers. Luckily, in one they pulled out Hommage à L’Homme, the only one they had. I sprayed it and spent the day smelling my arm. That talcum, clean, and elegant scent it emits is indescribable, an unequalled violet. I tried other spring fragrances for days, but I kept coming back to the Lalique one to smell it again… I ended up buying it! It makes me feel especially good, puts me in a good mood, and doesn’t seem like a ‘generic’ fragrance. Although I’d mainly use it in spring/fall, it seems suitable for every day of the year. As for longevity, after 4 applications, it lasts about 4-6h more or less with a moderate trail of 1h, then it stays close to the skin.

  Violet, above all else… Projection is particularly one hour for me, then skin scent; of course, some people will get a day and a half of projection, but not me. Do I like the scent? Absolutely. Is it unique? No, you’ve smelled this before. Do I recommend it? Yes, it has a very attractive price and a good smell. And please, to the two people who voted this reminds them of Loewe 7, where is it? The Virgin, how are their noses…

  Bottled Marlboro Light. It’s like opening a pack of blond tobacco. Fans of Dior’s Fahrenheit will love it. Serious, daytime, professional scent, non-intrusive, with a slight citrus character, especially at the start, though it’s a dry and linear aroma. Excellent price for decent skin performance, although the projection isn’t very strong, which is noticeable. Suitable for men aged 25-30 and up.

  A difficult-to-understand fragrance, yet peculiar and shining on its own, with an opening marked by violet leaves creating an earthy sensation alongside intense saffran that adds spicy and peppery character, accompanied by a soft citrus note of bergamot. After half an hour, the violet emerges until nearly the end, along with a spicy pepper accord, both very prominent. Then come resinous touches from the oud, subtle and not overpowering, alongside a sweet layer of tonka bean, all wrapped in the floral and talc-like accords of the violet. In the dry-down, you perceive labdanum and musk, finishing with clean, soapy notes. Given its quality-to-price ratio, it’s worth having in your collection. Soft projection, acceptable longevity of 6-7 hours. Suitable for cold or mild climates, perhaps requiring formal attire and a mature, masculine audience.

  A beast of a fragrance, crafted by two top-tier perfumers, but not for everyone. To many, Lalique’s Hommage à L’Homme EDT seems like the low-cost, softer, more floral version of Dior’s 90s Fahrenheit EDT. Cheaper, yes, but it’s not a blatant clone. Featuring violet, black pepper, saffron, pepper leaf, domesticated oud, and musk, it recalls Dior but has its own personality. It doesn’t smell like gasoline like the Dior, which some found unpleasant and heavy; this is pure violet, 100% floral, with no dirty leather or motor grease. It’s stylish, modern, elegant, and dark. In my opinion, it’s softer and more versatile than the Dior. Good longevity, around 6-7 hours, with moderate sillage. Affordable price for the quality. Unfortunately, it’s not popular and is hard to find as of 2023. If you like dark, unique fragrances that stand out from the crowd or the ‘sigma male’ trend, hunt it down. Worth it and ranks among Lalique’s best for men, alongside Encre Noire.

  My father inherited a wooden cigar box from his grandfather, lined with dark embossed leather featuring scenes from Don Quixote and padded on the inside. It had compartments for everything, from long to regular cigars, individual holders, and slots for the lighter and matches with a striker; a delicacy from another era. Life changes, and habits change too; such things are no longer made, and my father didn’t use it because he smoked Ducados too quickly. I imagined aristocratic gatherings, offering the open box, selecting a cigar, and sipping whiskey or cognac. Childish fantasies. This perfume didn’t captivate me at first, but upon using it with care, I realized it was special. Upon its arrival, I thought of my grandfather’s box: that wood steeped in blond tobacco, that slightly mentholated masculine scent, that embossed leather, that piece of history. A noble and discreet fragrance, with polished and refined elegance, for a well-dressed and well-mannered man. A wonderful tribute to manhood.

  I just bought it blind, encouraged by its low price (€16 on Primor online), the violet note I love, and the reviews here, and what a hit: I love it! I notice a complex development; the fragrance transforms and I don’t know which phase I like best. I agree with the appreciation of the light tobacco scent at the start and incense in the heart phase, delicious aromas for me. It makes me visualize a white, cozy, and comforting aura. It seems to me to be a supremely elegant perfume, not for any occasion.

  Beast of a perfume. Clean, masculine, well-made, with quality notes. The opening is spicy due to the saffron, but on skin it turns creamy with a slightly sweet touch. Elegant, for an adult audience. Nothing of those vanilla or caramel bombs from nowadays. To me, it’s suitable for any weather if you control the sprays. It’s at a ridiculous price for the quality. At some point, it reminds me of Bravo Monsieur, keeping its distance.

  I don’t usually write poetic or long reviews, but this deserves some reflection. In these years where any Arab clone-of-a-clone gets 4.8 stars and glowing comments for its price, we forget that in Europe we still manufacture affordable and original fragrances that are true jewels. €16 is worth this: a double Whopper meal with ice cream, a t-shirt on sale, or two small bottles. For this unbeatable price, you get: a sober and elegant presentation, Lalique glass (a luxury house), a metal cap, and a good quality atomizer. And then the fragrance itself: addictive, with a powerful opening and a smoky vibe, as if you were in a forest cabin preparing a trip to the city in May: sun warming the wood, smoke on the walls, a leather jacket, and a motorcycle engine start. It mixes the smell of the cabin, the jacket, and the fuel. You embark on a calm trip while the sun sets and casts long shadows. Suddenly, a brief storm, and the overheated ground emits a scent upon contact with the rain. The return home thinking about how beautiful it is to be alive and able to store it in memory. You get this for €16 without buying on TikTok, Alibaba, or ordering via pigeon mail. Like this one, there are many overlooked jewels on the shelves of local perfumeries.

  Interest, passion, collecting, and the search for treasures… that’s what drives us to explore this magical world. I lament the loss of many classics I loved that are no longer made, and there are few current fragrances that excite me. However, there are unexpected discoveries that reconcile me. Hommage a l’Homme is a pleasant surprise. Usually, it’s the strong scents that make people stop and ask what you’re wearing, but this one from Lalique does everything perfectly without showing off. Black pepper complements a sweet floral bouquet masterfully, yet it’s never overwhelming. It’s like a high-end dream that contrasts fruity sweetness with a sharp, mentholated freshness in perfect harmony. Those who want to move away from empty launches and immerse themselves in an almost poetic equilibrium will be rewarded with an emblematic discovery. It’s hard for me to categorize: it’s fresh and sweet, floral and spicy, classic and modern all at once. I’ve never found anything so balanced in this price range; I can’t imagine a situation where it wouldn’t be appropriate. The citrus opening is brief, the violet and spices appear quickly, the freshness remains, but the clean oud adds depth. Even the musk is so clean it only has a subtle sweetness without losing freshness. A fragrance for all seasons and occasions. It doesn’t seek compliments or fleeting adventures, but rather to demonstrate an exceptional personality, a trusted partner, and true love. Masculine, universal, and beyond categories. If you find it, don’t let it slip away.

  I’d say it’s the scrappy younger brother of Declaration d’un Soir. With all that testosterone-rich violet and the modern oud touch, I can’t help but think it’s a much finer scent than it appears. It has class, it’s well-made, and you can find it for around €17 today. I realize that violets aren’t my thing compared to other florals, but once that note settles, it leaves a fresh, clean sensation with a touch of pepper and a very interesting light oud. For the price, if you’re a scent enthusiast and open to trying new things, I wouldn’t miss out on the experience.

  I was tempted to buy it after reading so many praises, but luckily I tested it on my skin before spending money blindly. As others mention, opening a pack of light tobacco brings up strange memories… very curious. It seems to have tea notes, maybe from the black pepper. It’s very classic, but I don’t see it as elegant as I expected. As it evolves, it reminds me a bit of Azzaro. In my case, it’s dispensable.

  Smells exactly like Fahrenheit but without the gasoline smoke. A fine, high-quality violet; you can tell it’s an expensive perfume even though I grabbed it cheap. Rumor has it they’ve discontinued it, so I picked up two 50ml bottles. Performance and sillage are average, it’s unisex, and perfect for daytime.
