Façonnable (1994)
by Façonnable

Faconnable (classic) - jeez..talk about Aromatic! Talk about Herbal Mint!! Pretty agressive, fresh, zesty, "herbal" and minty. one wouldnt take this to liking immediately. definitely an aquired taste. for those who admire scents like Piper Nigrum should definitely sample this one too ! Thumbs up for this one..

Quite ordinary aromatic fougere fragrance. Very 90`s smelling stuff.

To my nose quite strong and very long lasting. Spicy fresh with sweet soapy accord. Has that typical, a bit tobacco-like crispy tone to it that is very common with this kind of fragrances.
Aromatic, green masculinity. An obvious combination of synthetic shades combined with some natural ingredients.

This probably falls in somewhere between fragrances like Eternity for Men and C.Herrera for Men.


Not particularly recommended (esp. for a blind buy because while it’s not controversial, there is a danger that you will find it boring), but if you pump into this by accident then I suggest you give it a try.

Tart, a bit soapy, fresh, somewhat floral. I don’t think this is bad, but the tartness doesn’t appeal to me.

It'sa nice,Hi FIVVVE. Success. I love this smell and I am addicted to it. I have owned it in the past. Smell it.

Fresh florals. Rose and neroli mingle with a musk note to make the whole thing a touch too sweet. Later turns soapy and slightly unpleasant. Average fragrance.

There’s a somewhat interesting accord in the opening — I think it has to do with the combination of wild mint, lavender, and galbanum: it is quite aromatically potent — even grabs at my breath a bit, yet at the same time it is quite fresh — a freshness that is further helped by the aldehydes that help open the fragrance. There’s a nice floral center — none of the floral notes seems to dominate and the accord is quite pleasant even if it is rather characterless. The drydown is woody and ambery and not too sweet. Façonnable is a competent fragrance, acceptably constructed, pleasant aromas. I don’t notice any of the synthetic ambiance or excessive sweetness that are so endemic in many of the modern fragrances. The only shortcoming with this fragrance as far as I’m concerned is that it doesn’t offer any kind of special intrigue to me.
