Gucci pour Homme (2003)
by Gucci

My favourite fragrance of all time - I hate the way Gucci killed it off. There are a lot that are similar but none that come quite as close for me.

I don't get leather but there is a great balance of smokey wood and incense.

Buy up your bottles from wherever you can find them...

As with many unique fragrances, this one is becoming harder and harder to find in retail department stores. The scent is fantastic. It is a rich, comforting smell full of incense and wood. In fact, the smell is reminiscent of burning wood drifting through the cold morning air of winter. Others have noted the smell of pencil shavings, which is also present. It takes me back to the pencil sharpeners at my elementary school. A real work of art and a true classic. Every man should have at least a 50 ml for those special winter days.

I really love this--am on my second bottle. Warm and dusky with a very masculine combination of smoke, wood, leather and a manly, slightly dirty sort of musk (tonka?). Warm and peppery, this stays close to the skin. The bottle is fantastic--the chunky glass looks like it should be holding a peaty single malt. More than Lonestar Memories, this is what I think cowboys would smell like in an ideal world. I occasionally wear it when I am out riding and it seems to jive perfectly with the great (in my mind) smell of horses. It also comes in a great travel size--very handy. Thanks, Tom, for this one!

Nope. Don't get it.

Pencil shavings?

Check. I'm buried in them.

Anything else?

Hmm, not really.

Nope. Still don't get it.

Sorry..

Hell Yes! This juice is amazing! 10 stars! This smells both classy and sexy. Another mainstay in my collection. This is all gentlemans club, cigar smoke, leather and incense. Very evocative of high-backed green leather chairs and oriental rugs and tapestries as the scent of a fine cuban wafts through the air mingled with incense. When I really want to make a good impression on a beautiful lady on a first date, this gets the nod. I don't even think about it anymore. This is another evening and fall/winter fragrance. Go easy on the application and receive great recompense of reward...My Lord!

I love this scent. I have a large 3.4 oz bottle. I hardly use it, only on holidays or get togethers because it's that good. It stands out and it's unique.

I grew up always going to mass, and I remember that smell of incense in the big cathedrals. Sure it was way over powering at church, but this cologne captures it well. I love it. It's just very woody, peppery, yet soft in my opinion. When it's on my skin I smell the woody, earthy, frankincense tones, but at the same time there is a sweetness to it. Just a great well rounded cologne. May not be for everyone. It is a bit mature so to speak. I wear a lot of scents. Anything from cool water, gucci pour homme, light blue, and polo. I just wear cologne and I get compliments haha. Either way, this cologne is great, but if you are under 18, I wouldn't wear it, just seems for someone a bit older.
