Reviews of Hypnôse Homme (2007)
by Lancôme

Hypnose Homme is a pleasantly sweet oriental scent that wears well in warm weather; although in hot and humid conditions it could be cloying.

The topnotes blend well, no one note overpowers the others. On my skin the lavender carries through to the drydown where it is joined by sweet amber and wood notes. Hypnose Homme is long lasting (7-8hours) and has good sillage. Overall this is a good fragrance that is better than many of the mass market designer fragrances.

EDIT: this is waaaaay better than JPG...I bought a bottle for cheap and I can't get enough. Closer to Lolita Lempicka and just much better. Older and more assured, less 'wannabe'. This is the Le Male for the older, more mature, 'I have good/better taste' crowd.

yet another JPG le male wannabe. It's been 12 years and now some scent houses want to 'redo' le male...i don't get it. Either way much cleaner and sharper than le male...I can't decide if I like this or Zihr Corduroy better.<br>I'll say, if you can't stand JPG le male's unnecessary dirty musk, then try one of the other 2 i mentioned. and if you love le male but don't want to spend the money, then go with 100% Love by s-perfume.

This is an elegant, sensuous scent for a man. Versatile enough for day or evening. I think it's one of the better newer mainstream releases. It's not "cutting edge", but very well balanced and appealing. I'm a fan of Maurice Roucel, and this did not disappoint!

just picked this up today, should've got it the first day it came out.THE BOMB!!!! Starts out kind of soft & oriental like & then mellows out with the amber.

I smelt this fragrance three weeks ago and I am definitely going to get one. It has an air of class and maturity. This is definitely my next best fragrance after Terre D'hermes. I don't share the view that it can only be worn by those over 30. It comes down to the level of confidence of the person wearing it.

I liked it a lot and got me a bottle of it.
I have to agree with monkeymanmatt about the way it smells and I also agree with atlanta1 as to the longevity of it and the fact that it’s a light summer oriental fragrance for men.
Lancôme didn’t disappoint me, and I will be looking forward to their next scent for men.

I'm sure this one will become a must have for me when I reach my 40's.
It express serenity,sophistication and shout off a gorgeous subtle sexy aura.
I adore it, but i know that just won't work on me just now. I'll wait then.

I was hoping the replaced, in my opinion, the best men's floral being Lacome's "O'. but, this is more woody than anything else and it's a pretty decent woody scent. It's safe, but, I could wear this but not be in a rush to go out and buy it.

It's a great sophisticated fragrance but definately only beyond 30 or 35. Masculine and mature.

I just bought a bottle of Lancome's new fragrance, Hypnose, this week. I'm quite pleased with it. Sillage is good. Have to admit that I prefer Oriental fragrances on me as they do very well with my body chemistry. This is a light enough Oriental that I feel comfortable wearing it all summer long, even here in the hot, humid southern United States. I'm writing this about 8 hours after putting it on and it's doing quite well. I think it'll fit in quite nicely with my favorite summer fragrance wardrobe revolver that includes Monsieur Givenchy and Guerlain's Vetiver.

Not bad at all. Familiar territory for most of us as this is mainly based on lavender and vanilla. The fragrance opens with a pungent blast of cardamom. Then the lavender does come on very sharp and strong, but eventually mellows out during the long amber/vanilla drydown. Hypnôse Homme is actually a bit reminiscent of Miracle for men as well, which is kind of cool out of a house continuity perspective. If in the mood for a spicy, fresh and potent oriental, then give this one a go. Clive Owen is a cool guy by the way (he´s the "face" for Hypnôse).

The smell is sexy, and VERY sophisticated! Woody and a bit spicy, wears VERY easy and it lasted quite a while on me.
NOT OUT YET!!! ...(sampling is the only thing seminars are good for! ^^)
