LeatheryWhat does Dior Homme (2005) smell like?
It opens fresh with lavender, bergamot and sage. In the heart, cardamom, iris, amber and cocoa turn it sweeter, with a powdery, gourmand softness. Vetiver, leather and patchouli settle into a woody, leathery base.
Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall and winter, with evenings and nights out leading and summer lagging behind. It reads masculine. Perfumes with a close profile include Dior Dior Homme Cologne (2007) and Dior Dior Homme Original (2011) (Eau de Toilette).
