Evolution & Experience
La Nuit de L’Homme starts with a sharp and spicy cardamom combined with fresh bergamot and aromatic lavender, creating an immediate sense of intrigue and freshness. As it develops, the heart’s cedar and vetiver bring an earthy, woody richness that deepens the fragrance’s character, while caraway adds a subtle spicy twist. In the dry-down, the warm base notes of vanilla, tonka bean, and coumarin provide a smooth, creamy finish that is both comforting and sensuous. The scent effortlessly transitions from bright and fresh to warm and seductive, perfect for evening wear.
Longevity & Projection
Moderate. It projects well in the first hour with a noticeable sillage, then softens into a more intimate, skin-like scent that lasts for several hours. Best suited for cooler evenings or nights out where it leaves a memorable impression without overwhelming.
Best Use / Occasions
Ideal for evening wear, romantic dates, and special occasions. Its spicy, warm nature suits fall and winter nights but can also work in spring. Not typically recommended for hot summer days due to its rich profile. Perfect for men seeking a charismatic, confident, and slightly mysterious aura.

La Nuit de L’Homme is magnetic, sophisticated, and sensual. It embodies modern masculinity with a blend of freshness and warmth, balancing refinement and boldness. It’s a signature scent for the man who wants to leave a lasting impression without trying too hard — smooth, confident, and undeniably attractive.
