I own both Rochas Man and Lolita Lempicka Au Masculin. My vote goes to Lolita Lempicka Au Masculin it is superior by a long shot. Rochas Man is just pure sugar with nothing special at all. Lolita Lempicka Au Masculin is wonderful and has that anise note which makes it really special.

Rochas Man IMO. You can also try Michael Jordan Legend. Another cheapie gourmand that is pretty good.

Rochas Man > Lolita Lempicka Au Masculin > Vanille Molinard

Don't know Perry Ellis 360 White.
post #26 of 33
I would choose between Rochas Man and Lolita Lempicka au Masculine. Sorry I can't be precise.
post #27 of 33
None of those...A Men Taste of fragrance

I would steer clear of the Molinard as it smells to much like baking vanilla extract...unless that is what you want. It is very linear. Nothing wrong with that, though.

For a gourmand vanilla with complexity, try L'Artisan's Traversee du Bosphore: sweet vanilla, light fruits and leather:

Ok, I'm gonna be the odd man out, but my favorite out of those is 360 White. Out of all the Le Male type clones, this one is my favorite. Rochas is ok, I'm not crazy about Lolita, and I haven't tried the Molinard (although, it's on my list and I do love a pure vanilla extract scent, so I'll probably enjoy it).

If you like licorice then Lolita Lempicka. Of those you mentioned i only have that (and a couple of its flankers) and Rochas Man. To me Rochas smells too much like a slightly longer lasting Lynx/Axe Dark Temptation. It doesnt have the projection or longevity of Lolita Lempicka, which can also be quite sweet so be prepared for that. Only a couple of sprays necessary. But it lasts on my skin for 18+ hours and I find it to be a very sexy scent that some girls can't help but find appealing.

I'd recommend the ltd. edition Au Masculin Eau De Minuit if you can find it. Its a dirtier, sexier, more masculine version.
