  1. FanDeDuneVintage

    Tom Ford’s top-tier fragrance pays homage to timeless classics, perfect for mature individuals yet ageless. It’s formal, luxurious, and commands presence. Opens strong with a deeply woody, forest-like vibe dominated by cypress among woods and green notes. Lasts about 4 hours with impeccable longevity for its category. Reminiscent of Halston Z-14, Ralph Lauren Polo, or the legendary Patou Pour Homme. A well-deserved tribute to the jewels of the past with high perfumery quality. Rating: 9.5/10

  2. Götterdämmerung

    Italian Cypress is a modern, complete fragrance. It starts fresh with mint, basil, and citrus, allowing the Italian cypress to shine with quality and sophistication. Some experts rank it as the number one Private Blend, even above Tobacco Vanille and Tuscan Leather. As the old saying goes, ‘tastes and colors vary,’ because we’ll never agree.

  3. A brutal, superb, and very intrusive fragrance, ideal for formal occasions but in moderation. It’s woody and woodsy; citrus is only noticeable at the beginning and fades quickly. On my skin, it’s very linear. Reminds me of Halston Z14 before its reformulation and also the classic green Polo. Quality and style are undeniable. Recommended for cold climates and formal events, very distinguished, for those over 35. Fun fact: it says unisex, but to me, it smells super masculine. An excellent option to add to your collection if you’re seeking incredible quality, sillage, and longevity. Simply sublime.

An excellent option to add to your collection if you’re seeking great quality, sillage, and longevity. Simply sublime.
