Caron Pour Un Homme (1934) Ernest Daltroff Aromatic Fougère
------------------
Top Notes: Rosemary, Bergamot, Lemon Middle Notes: Lavender, Clary Sage, Rose, Rosewood, Cedar Base Notes: Vanilla, Tonka Bean, Moss, Musk
------------------

Lavender and vanilla, tout court? Not quite; that seeming simplicity is deceptive. There is an ample cast of supporting characters here, all pulling their weight to make those two notes shine. Behind the lavender, there is bergamot for definition, rosemary to reinforce the green and herbal side of it, and lemon to brighten it; also rose and rosewood for a floral and spicy lift, and clary sage for a slightly green muscatel vibe. For the vanilla, an oriental trio of powdery musk, hay-like tonka bean, and a touch of bitter oakmoss. A bright head, a rich heart, and a lush base: a masterpiece of balance and support for a transparent simplicity as light (but as precarious to achieve) as a perfect meringue.

Il Profvmo: Patchouli Noir.... best patchouli i've ever smelled... not that i've smelled many myself.

Good longevity and nice sillage (family whined about me leaving a earthy/sweet patchouli trail all around the house)

Caron The Third Man. After sampling Yatagan a couple of weeks ago I decided that Caron is my next line to explore. The Third Man has a very pleasant "classic men's fragrance" vibe. It's a high-quality formulation in terms of longevity and complexity. It's relatively inexpensive, too.

Plus, I love the movie.

Shout out to JaimeB, whose SotD reminded me to get this one into my rotation this morning.

You'd probably do better to avoid my nefarious influence in future. I would hate to be considered a role model!
