Pour Homme
A textbook Mediterranean masculine: bergamot and neroli lift a clean herbal heart, while cedar and tonka give the drydown just enough warmth. Polished, versatile, and easy to wear from office to weekend. The most straightforwardly handsome fragrance in the Versace catalogue.
Composed by Alberto Morillas

How to read this
Top notes arrive first and last around fifteen minutes before giving way to the heart. The heart notes carry the true personality of the fragrance for the first one to two hours. The base notes emerge slowly and are what remains on skin and fabric long after the rest has faded. They define the lasting impression and the depth of Pour Homme.

About Pour Homme
Pour Homme performs best primarily in warmer months when its character comes alive in heat. Its fresh / aquatic character and moderate sillage make it well suited for office/casual occasions. Because it projects at a comfortable distance that most people nearby will notice without being overwhelmed, you can calibrate your application to the setting. Starting with two sprays on pulse points and adjusting from there is a reliable approach.
