I concur and yes, you head JR correctly: The great Versace l'Homme is NOT the same as Versace pour Homme, nor Versace Man.

Slightly confused?

( Good God! There's also Versace Man Eau FraƮche-- but I doubt you'll get that mixed up with the others and fail the quiz that follows.)

********************

OK Versace l'Homme (1984)

--May I suggest you read the reviews and pay particular attention to the ones by Andrewthecologneguy, LuxGuardian, ZgB
Basteri, scentimus, Tony T, StylinLA :--the longer one by Dervant and the negative one by Off-Center?

All on page 1 and relatively recent compared to page 2. (Am I going too fast?) The older ones by by akinyildirim, Kaern, foetidus, Naed_Nitram, Ken Russel, TVLampboy, and your humble servant.

Why?

Because you're missing out on a great frag, dummy! One ideal for summer, no less.

And because, despite StylinLA's good scent buying karma: " I've seen several discussions of the reformulation and have a fair amount of confidence that they haven't totally screwed this one up."
I have to agree with Off-Scenter's " The swill that now passes for a drydown arrived at the compounding facility in steel drums labeled Base Notes, Male, Overstock.

Yes, this has been reformulated into crap but it's well worth hunting down one of the 'original' bottles.
I'm fast closing in on one . . .

Cheers,

Mario

I only like The Dreamer. The other ones are too synthethic.

I occasionally enjoy wearing my 30ml bottle of vintage Versace l'Homme

I tested the jeans line and Black Jeans was by far my favorite.
It's quite modern and definitely full bottle worthy IMO.

Green Jeans isn't half bad either.

Black Jean is hands down the best from that house, followed by the Dreamer.

I always thought Jeans Couture and its tacky bottle was highly underrated and a great summer fragrance. Once you got past the initial blast it had a kind of sexy drydown. I also like Dreamer.

Versace L`Homme is great & The Dreamer is not bad either.

I've liked a couple...only ones I really liked were L'homme and The Dreamer.

Every one I have tried has made me feel sick and given me a headache.

The Dreamer, Man, Man au Fraiche (more just boring), and the 2008 Homme one.

Definitely!
