Monsieur de Givenchy clone with little strength or lasting power. The only thing Armani has on MdG is it lacks the dry, austere rose blast in the opening. Otherwise, I would get Givenchy.

I thought this was my signature scent in the late 1980s - its bright citrus opening is certainly captivating. But as expected of top notes it can never last, transitioning smoothly from tangy lemon to a lightly spiced lavender heart before leaving behind a vaguely masculine woodsy drydown that I just can't seem to care about. A more modern interpretation of the classic gentlemen scent ala Eau Sauvage this may be, but I find EAU POUR HOMME's overall presentation rather ho-hum.

Nice aspects, but they don’t add up to anything much.

The citrus opening is big and brash, but it doesn’t really go anywhere. It is neither gritty like the opening of Givenchy Gentleman, nor suave like the opening of Boucheron pour Homme, and, unlike these two fragrances, the citrus in ApH doesn’t herald anything majestic or memorable to come.

The heart of clove and sandalwood that emerges is pretty, but it is soft and doesn’t last.

The oak moss gives the base an almost masculine feel, but it is so tame that the masculinity seems to have been robbed away.

The sillage and longevity are not what they ought to be.

the citrus opening is so strong you might wonder if there is anything else to it, and happily there is. the citrus remains present but developing behind it are all kinds of subtle and tantalising notes. i really like it, it was the first serious scent i bought. it can't be easy to make citrus seem somehow mysterious, yet that's the effect.

I strongly disagree with Teflondog!
If I close my eyes I can smell a bit of boring basil along with the boring lemons.
Otherwise I agree with every word he said . . .

This has the dated citrus feel to it. Something relevant to the 80s. Mixed with herbs, there is the bitter-sweet all so familiar with classics of the same era. I find it very linear. There is nothing significant to it
