Solo Loewe Platinum by Loewe

Just bought it and the performance is brutal. It evolves like a rough sea: starts with leather, cedar, and incense, then tea joins lavender, and finally it settles on just lavender and thyme. Lasts 8 to 10 hours with about 3 hours of projection. Already want another bottle 🙂

Leather and incense are the bosses here. That typical Loewe leather mixed with an incense resin that softens the tea, and especially the lavender. Medium-low projection for a scent that gives you empowerment and character.

Found it half-used, with less than half left, and I’m desperate because it’s no longer available 😔. Just two things: sophisticated and smells rich. It’s the scent of people with money. 10/10.

I tried it blind and it was a total hit. I love it; it’s masculine, versatile, elegant, and different. Not youthful, but doesn’t smell like an old man either; it’s clean without smelling like shower gel. The opening is fresh but has darkness from black tea, cedar, and lavender; it feels like stepping into a wooden cabin on a hot day, with cool shade and an iced tea. What I notice most is lavender with cedar and tea. I only detect the white musk that cleans it up and very subtle benzoin. For me, it’s a 10; I don’t mind it being linear, projects little, and lasts about 6 hours on skin and less on clothes the next day. Perfect for the office. What a pity it’s discontinued, but you can get it online. Worth it if you’re looking for something fresh and woody, not citrus or aquatic. I loved it so much I bought a backup.

I agree with the person who said this smells like The One EDP—not because it’s a clone, but because it targets the same vibe: the tea here is sour and bitter like citrus, soft leather takes the place of tobacco, and resins replace amber. It’s a modern, elegant, and very versatile man, though I set it aside in heat. Perfect as a signature scent or for the office; it doesn’t overpower. I personally prefer The One, but this Solo Platinum performs better on skin and comes in a hard black box with a side-opening, very premium. It deserves more love 😁 Scent: 8.75 Longevity: 7.5 Projection: 6 Sillage: 7 Versatility: 8.5 Value: 8.25

A story you can’t forget: I went out to buy a perfume for a friend, not for myself. The store girl asked if I wanted to try Loewe’s Solo Platinum. I, acting like an expert, nodded and with disdain said: Okay, let me see. End of story… I ended up buying two bottles and almost reenacted the classic scene of giving a gift and getting hooked (with a face saying… shit, I want it too). This perfume has its difference printed on it, at least compared to current perfumery. I won’t list the notes, perfumes are reviewed as a whole, but this has a sensual scent in its DNA for any season, day, or night, and believe me, I’m from a warm place all year round. It’s manly! Sophisticated! Easily lasts 8 hours and generates endless compliments.

First fragrance from this Spanish house and it impressed me, even though I’m not a fan of resinous or leather scents. I associate it with a spiced woody vibe, but it doesn’t have those notes; it reminds me of The One by D&G—sharp at first but not intrusive, with a sublime and addictive dry-down. It lasts on clothes until the next day. It’s like the classic Solo but with incense and benzoin, better for temperate/winter climates and formal occasions. The classic is more versatile. Platinum is an ‘intense’ version. Delicious, exquisite, and refined. Recommended.

Freshly applied, it smells citrusy and fussy, with a weak leather base. I don’t notice the typical incense from the 7 collection. The scent is charming with reasonable projection. I haven’t tested the longevity thoroughly, but after half an hour, it seems more than enough. I really like it; I own several from this collection, and the cedar one is my favorite. I’d recommend it without doubt; it’s elegant.

Pleasantly surprised: incredible and original scent, formal, masculine, and seductive. Moderate trail but good longevity. It’s not cheap, but it’s worth every penny for this little-known gem. Cheers.

A great option for fresh days at gatherings or presentations. It conveys seriousness and sobriety. I see this as more for men 30+.

Honestly, it’s not my favorite style, and the Solo family in general doesn’t really work for me, but I have to admit this one has a certain charm. Dry incense, lightly smoked, spices, leather, and tea (nothing fresh), plus cedar, make this a classic masculine scent. I imagine the benzoin adds a subtle, abstract counterpoint that works beautifully. It could use a bit more punch. Even though it’s dry and serious, it’s nothing compared to Private Label or Dark Aoud in terms of impact; this one definitely feels more like a designer fragrance.

A superior fragrance for rare occasions (given the price), but its aroma will accompany you for a long time. A very good flanker of Solo that surpasses it in moments. Enjoy it.

Hey, I’m not an expert on notes, but this fragrance is awesome. It smells very masculine, with that leather note giving it real character. The trail is moderate, nothing extravagant, and both longevity and projection are solid. Paired with the original Solo, they’re fantastic; I can’t wait to try the cedar one, it’s sure to be spectacular.

Hard to disagree with the others: Solo Loewe Platinum is the best in the family. It’s delicate, exquisite, and uncommon. On my skin, it lasts even after a shower. The sillage is light, but the skin longevity is excellent. It’s 100% refined, no half measures. I’d give it 4.5/5.

Smells similar to the original but takes a more serious turn due to the leather, though the opening smells like lime. Ideal for cold winters or autumn, and sometimes in spring when dressed up. Projects well with great longevity; three sprays are more than enough.
