An elegant lavender and vanilla scent, which starts out full of promise but wimps out on my skin. If it had better lasting power, I wouldn’t hesitate in buying a bottle.

Such a pity.

A really classic scent. The smell of a serious and interesting man. Very well crafed. A explosion of lavender in the beginning and then vanilla and herbs. Maybe you need to have a certain age and perfume experience to apreciate this cologne. Very long lasting scent.

I am on the fence on this cologne. I love the lavender, but after 30 minutes it starts to smell like mildewy lavender that has been peed on....
sometimes the pee is less pronounced, but it is usually there, lurking in the background, like piccadilly station. My wife hates it.

I totally love Yatagan. I find Le 3ieme Homme unique and fascinating. This concoction, however, is HIDEOUS. It begins with top notes of Key Lime pie and vanilla; odd and not at all gourmand. Then the lavender starts kicking in. Oh good heavens the pain. A horrible accord. Finally the lavender subsides, and I am left, yet again, with the lime and vanilla. After a couple of hours it begins to mellow but not into anything particularly interesting.
I can now understand why they had to develop a 2ieme and 3ieme pour homme. However, since the 2ieme doesn't exist, I'm terrified that it may have smelled even worse. You will find many bottles of Pour Homme on ebay. Leave them there

This is just too raw. It smells like lavender and wet hay. It has a very old fashioned, dated, smell of a barber shop. It is definitely one dimensional. The dry down is terrible. How the heck this is considered a classic is a mystery to me. I smelled Yatagan also, and I was repulsed. Yatagan has a celery-like and strong cheap wood smell. Not good. I love The Third Man, but Pour Un Homme has no olfactory redeeming qualities to my nose. I am sorry to say that this is one of the worst masculine fragrances I've ever inhaled. I cannot imagine any female wearing, or wanting to wear this tonic. A zero.

I know a lot of people like this, but I do not. It smells like some kind of breakfast pastry and does not last long. Thank goodness I bought a mini.
