An odd blend of spices whose time has gone by
I bought a full bottle for $33 from Jomashop without testing a sample at home. It was not a completely blind buy as I had tested it while passing through London Heathrow Airport.
When I sprayed it on my hand in the duty free airport boutique, it felt spicy and medicinal, but pleasant. When I tried the full bottle at home, it still felt medicinal but rather unpleasant. Vetiver, cedar and labdanum (?) are all pushed to the front and it doesn’t create a good feeling. I really couldn’t see much development in the notes. This combination might have worked two decades ago, but we have much better perfumes now. In addition, Givenchy Pour Homme comes in a very odd-looking bottle.
Fortunately, I was able to send it back to the seller and get a refund. It is just too much and too little at the same time. Don't buy it simply because it is cheap.
