Weather today is in the teens, so I wanted a warmer fragrance to push through the cold. I sampled this at Disney World this year and knew right away I needed a full bottle. Released in 2024, it’s the most intense and concentrated version in the L'Homme Ideal line, crafted by perfumer Delphine Jelk. It's an Oriental Woody fragrance that intensifies the gourmand and boozy elements of the original, but still remaining masculine in its presentation. There is a prominent amaretto with a bitter almond liqueur vibe, fruity/cherry undertones, patchouli, musk, and woody accents. It opens with a boozy almond and liqueur, like an expensive amaretto, with a touch of cherry and spice. It then evolves smoothly into a polished base with deep patchouli and musky warmth. The dry down is smoky and sensual, with elegant funkiness that's relaxed yet refined. It’s classy, mature, and addictive. It’s the boldest iteration, with strong longevity at 8+ hours and solid projection, though it stays close/intimate at the 4-5 hour mark. It's versatile for spring/fall/winter evenings or date nights. It’s seductive without being overpowering. If you enjoy sweet leaning masculines with almond or cherry (similar to the EDP or Extreme flankers), this refines it into something more luxurious and elevated. Highly recommended for if you’re seeking depth and quality.

I guess after this original 3 gets to me you will only be 3 ahead of me !!! @Henry Clay
