Pinaud

Clubman

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Clubman Pinaud is a classic men's scent that softens fresh, green citrus with a powdery, lightly sweet base. Lemon, lime and orange set the first impression; oakmoss adds a woody, green depth, while vanilla pulls the scent towards a creamy, powdery sweetness. Floral and spicy touches round out the fougère character. Longevity and sillage are moderate. Votes are spread almost evenly across all four seasons, with fall slightly ahead. It leans towards daily, business and leisure wear, and far less towards evenings or nights out. Voters read it as masculine and classic. Chanel Boy and Caron Le 3ᵉ Homme (Eau de Toilette) have a close profile.

Pinaud Special Reserve

7.9

Clubman

Fresh · Spicy · Woody

Clubman Pinaud Special Reserve is a fresh, spicy men's fragrance built on citrus notes, musk and woody notes. The notes aren't split into top, heart and base, so it reads as a single whole. Fresh citrus notes sit alongside woody notes, with musk laying a soft base underneath. The spicy and resinous side, joined by earthy, smoky and leathery touches, gives it a classic fougère feel, with a faint animal trace in the background. Longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Most voters pick autumn and winter, while spring and summer come well behind. It leans towards daily and leisure wear, and also suits evenings and the office. Voters rate it highly for value. Its profile is close to Tonsor & Cie Vintage Style and Avon Cool Blue Wave.

Pinaud Classic Vanilla

7.3

Clubman

Fresh · Floral · Green

Clubman Pinaud Classic Vanilla is a fresh, floral men's fragrance built around jasmine, lavender and sage. Longevity is moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin rather than filling a room. The number of voters is small, so these ratings are only a rough guide. It is classed as a men's fragrance. The notes read as a single whole: jasmine gives a soft floral touch, lavender and sage add a green, herbal freshness, and spices keep the sweetness from turning heavy. Powdery and sweet accents run through it as well. Abaco Grey Dorée and Gucci Moonlight Serenade have a close profile.

7.0

Clubman

Fresh · Citrus · Green

Clubman Pinaud Lime Sec is a fresh, citrus-led men's fragrance that leans towards spring and summer days. Lemon comes first, brightened by green and fruity tones. Woods and musk soften that sparkle, while the spicy and animal touches keep it from turning too sweet. Longevity and sillage are rated weak, so it stays close to the skin. Most voters pick summer and spring, and it is seen as suiting leisure, daily wear, sport and the office. Castle Forbes Special Reserve Neroli and Hermès Voyage d'Hermès (Eau de Toilette) have a close profile.

Whiskey Woods

7.7

Clubman · 2017

Citrus · Sweet · Gourmand

Clubman Whiskey Woods is a men's fragrance that sets citrus freshness against a sweet, smoky and woody body. Bergamot gives the scent a bright start, while whisky and tobacco leaf bring a sweet, gourmand warmth. Woods form the dry backbone, and spicy, earthy, leathery and faintly animal tones darken the smoky mood. Its longevity and sillage are rated moderate, though few people have voted, so those ratings are tentative. Without season or occasion votes there is little to say about when it suits best, but the character is masculine and warm. Firn Botanical Fragrance Woodsmoke and Mugler A*Men Pure Malt have a close profile.

Lustray Blue Spice

7.1

Clubman

Fresh · Floral · Fruity

Clubman Lustray Blue Spice is a men's fragrance that sets the spicy bite of cinnamon, cumin and black pepper against the floral softness of red rose. The notes don't split into layers; the scent reads as one piece from start to finish. Cinnamon, cumin and black pepper give it a spicy, slightly smoky tone, while bay leaf and frankincense pull it towards the woody and leathery side. Red rose and berries add a sweet, fruity softness in between, and the fresh accord keeps the spice from turning heavy.
