Cèdre

7.0

L.T. Piver

Fruity · Sweet · Spicy

L.T. Piver Cèdre is a woody, sweet men's fragrance that leans towards spring and autumn, and suits leisure hours or evenings. Most voters pick autumn, followed by spring and winter, while summer gets a small share. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin. Most voters read it as masculine, with a smaller group calling it classic. Sandalwood and cedar form a woody backbone, softened by musk. Berries add a fruity sweetness on top of that base. Spicy, powdery and resinous touches stay in the background, and an animal edge adds warmth. Coty Vanilla Musk and El Nabil Musc Santal have a close profile.

Vétiver

7.6

L.T. Piver · 1991

Fresh · Citrus · Green

L.T. Piver Vétiver is a fresh, green men's fragrance with an earthy, woody backbone. Citrus and green freshness run through the whole scent, with apple adding a fruity note and nutmeg a spicy touch. Lavender softens the mix, while vetiver and patchouli give it an earthy, woody weight, with sweet and resinous sides in the accords too. Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick fall, followed by spring, and it suits leisure, daily wear and the office. Voters mostly call it masculine and classic.

Cuir

7.2

L.T. Piver · 2003

Citrus · Fruity · Sweet

L.T. Piver Cuir is a unisex scent that sets the brightness of mandarin orange, bergamot and orange against the smoky, leathery edge of birch tar. Citrus and honey lead, giving a fruity, sweet and slightly gourmand start. Spicy and woody notes fill in underneath, while birch tar pulls the scent towards a smoky, resinous and animal depth. The leathery accord keeps the sweetness from turning soft. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall and winter, and evening and night out come up most often. Most call it masculine, though its classic character suits anyone. Helmut Lang Cuiron pour Homme and Zimaya Treasure have a close profile.

Musc

7.3

L.T. Piver · 2011

Fresh · Citrus · Fruity

L.T. Piver Musc is a men's scent that sits most comfortably in autumn and spring, closer to daytime and leisure wear than to anything formal. Longevity and sillage are both moderate. Most voters pick autumn, then spring, though winter has a fair share too. It is worn by day and in the evening, and it also turns up in the office. Most voters read it as masculine, though some call it feminine, and it sits between classic and modern. Arabian Oud Amiri and Jaguar Mark II (Eau de Toilette) have a close profile. It opens fresh and citrusy with pink pepper, mandarin orange and bergamot. The heart of oakmoss, Virginia cedar, musk and gaiac wood builds a woody, animal base. In the base, patchouli, tonka bean and amber sweeten it into a powdery, creamy, resinous warmth.
