Blue bottle, Funky Lid, Underrated. Go out and try it. Fresh, cool and different.

This smells a lot like one of Carolina Herreras offerings to my nose. 212 for sure, but not as sharp or dirty. I get a crisp, clean white shirt visual, not buttoned up, but rather flailing in the wind on a sunny day, yet slightly chilly in the back yard worn by a guy with an unshaven face of say 3 days.

I really don't get the negative reviews, and I can tell formt he reviews quite a few people have confused this with other Lanvin
offerings (Lanvin Vetyver and Arpege Lanvin; maybe even Oxygene). You really have to spend some time with this and this only to get it.

Suitable for office were for sure. It cannot be offensive and neither is it sensuous; it's like a church going frag that pays hommage to other frags from the 80s to today, quietly takinf notes without saying a word.

Warm, woody and surprisingly crisp vetiver frag. (A vetiver, if you will, for those who don't normally care for vetiver.) Wonderful use of bergamot here to lend just a touch of soapiness. As for the civet that's ostensibly here? I don't get it. Doesn't matter -- I still like it.

Lanvin L'Homme DOES tend to stay very close to the skin, granted, but I really don't understand all the fuss about it supposedly being a "weak" frag with no longevity. On the contrary, I find it to be a smart and sophisticated frag that's always appropriate for office wear.

More annoying artificial-smelling crispness overloaded with sharp musk from Alberto Morillas (see Oxygene from the same house and creator.) Terribly ho-hum and dull, with a mishmash of notes that have been processed into oblivion into a vaguely pleasant, inoffensive, but ultimately dull mixture. Buy it if you want a functional, crisp, musky scent, but not if you want to inspire or be inspired. I really struggle to find a reason to wear this when there are so many other pleasant, office-ready scents with a bit more individuality and inventiveness (e.g., Paul Smith Story, Bulgari PH.)

a truely weird scent where the notes are all scrambled up. 10 minutes ago it's spicy and in 30 minutes it's aquatic. also synthetic and subtle. thumbs up for trying to be different but neutral for the results.

Yeah, This one is light and fresh, but in an annoying way...Starts with a spicy accord: a mix of ginger and lavender, a bit strong to my taste. When it dries down, I smell that ozonic/cypress note I once smelt in Lanvin Oxygene. At this point, It becomes Lanvin Oxygene Light. The result is an uninspired, faint and weird scent.

A subtler cousin of FUBU Plush for Men. Clean and light with no substance.
