Metropolitan Fougere
*UPDATED: This fragrance has the dubious honor of being Karl Lagerfeld's worst release, but it’s still not a bad fragrance.

It may not be memorable, but it isn’t exactly generic either because it’s quite different from what is being done now: I can distinguish it among thousands fragrances in the same place… So it's not that generic, huh..?

KL for him is fresh but dark, and modern but retro… All at the same time.

This juice opens with a nice fresh orange & lavander combo, supported by apple and violet notes in a nice and uplifting pseudo-synthetic accord that slowly evolves into a woody and definitely musky dry-down, with some kind of sandalwood and amber as base notes.

- Longevity ranges from 6 to 8h+ on skin.

*For those who have doubts: Spray your clothes with this fragrance and put them in the closet. Smell it after two days: it's still there, right..?

This fragrance in particular has a moderate-to-intimate projection but lasts a long time, especially in clothing.

- It has excellent versatility: All year round & all ocassions. KL for Him feels great in a dark suit... And I like it for office & business; this juice radiates confidence, seriousness and determination. Curiously, it's a fragrance that generates spontaneous compliments frequently (more than some famous ones that should give better results...).

Age: All, but >25 better.

Best of all: Right now, for the price at discounters it's a bargain.

The Bad: Discontinuation winds are blowing…

Generic Fougere
Standard fougere, it has that smell that you can fit in any man, faceless smell that fulfills the duty of not letting the male gets stinky. Green apple aroma, sweet and slightly bitter, herbal lavender and violet smell, with a woody sandalwood base with some amber. I guess that the only intersting thing here for me is the violet, that here doesn't smell like the leaf but instead is the sweeter and flower violet aroma. From the rest, i pass.

An old man's smell
A weird fragrance, powdery and somewhat spicy yet very sour and medicinal. In general, this scent feels forced, stressed and shrunken, yet piercing somehow. Sometimes people talk about old men's smells and this is the closest to that description I've experienced so far. To do justice, it does have a vital component which emerges with time, it's warm and spicy. I wouldn't be surprised if Lagerfeld smelled like this himself, although black clothes and the black bottle don't really fit the scent. I see the color for it as silver or gray with light violet or possibly yellow.

If you want better alternatives, this perfume is not very far away from Azzaro Wanted or Invictus. I consider it a botched implementation of that archetype, too powdery, dry, and sour. It is also kind of similar to Burberry London, but lacking its warmth and depth.

Longevity is good, way above average.

The Combination of Violet , Apple and Amber
This is my first perfume by Karl Lagerfeld I am very happy that I have it in my collection, In my opinion, it's a nice fragrance, Fresh, Fruity, Floral and Modern. It opens up with like fresh citrusy fruity and floral notes in the background then dry down is woody. It is perfect for the spring, summer and fall. I really enjoy it and I like Karl Lagerfeld Pour Homme EDT. Longevity is average.
Thumbs Up.

Chemical Soup
I just looked at the German reviews, some eloquent gentlemen there really took the time to take this fragrance apart and their comments are worth reading/worth being translated...
Yet - I can't bring myself to gracing this generic and utterly unpleasant product of "Interparfums" of 4, Rond-Point des Champs-Elysées in 75008 Paris, with an elaborated review. This stuff is so bad that words nearly fail me. Karl Lagerfeld: Your latest "KL for him" is a total bummer. You should be ashamed of this chemical soup.
