Costume National Homme (2009)
by Costume National

A very pleasant woody spicy perfume that is perfect for autumn and winter. A little fresh at first, but then it's very spicy, with the most prominent being the cinnamon, cloves, pepper and cardamom. It has a little of Egoiste in it in the form of cinnamon and sandalwood, but it's much simpler.
7/10

I agree with reviews saying it reminds them of L'Air du Désert Marocain or M7. Has that dry, woody, dark and resinous scent. Heavy and airy at the same time. Has a sneaky sweetness to it that really comes out in the opening.

Refined and dark, best for cool weather and formal events. Probably best for the mature guy.

Excellent performance. Projects for hours and lasts all day.

love this cinnamon clove woody masterpiece.

A rare thing: a scent with the kind of warmth and spice you would appreciate in autumn/winter, yet with the balmy, breezy, sun-soaked vibe you'd also associate with spring and especially with summer. Seems to be an all-arounder. I wore it for autumn/winter two years ago, wore Sycomore last autumn/winter, and have now returned to CNH; still wonderfully creamy, with light woods and mellow spices. Very similar to Egoiste, but softer and more subtle. This deserves 9 out of 10.

This is an incredible fragrance. Notes include cinnamon, clove, and honey, but to me they combine to smell like spicy coconut. It has great sillage and projection. This is gourmand. Spices used are sweet and this may be a better winter/cool weather fragrance.
