Sung Homme by Alfred Sung

Actually I was not expecting much from this scent. I found it at a discount store and the price was ridiculous, so low I could not believe it, so I picked it up and brough it home. It spent a few months in my closet, almost forgoten.
One day I took a late shower and I decided to give it a try since I was not going out for the rest of the day, just in case if it was bad, nobody would notice (LOL).
The first spritz almost knock me down, so strong, but nice, it did remind me of Quorum and Pinaud Bay Rum, but much more sophisticated. Very spicy and coniferous, slowly developing into this very floral heart, but not the sweet sickening floral of most perfumes, but a very dry floral, to close with a base notes structure that is in perfect balance, very few perfumes can achieve such harmony, specially with such strong notes.
It lasts and lasts, and the initial spicy notes are still present throughout.
Very masculine, but not cloying like Quorum.
It gets my thumb up

Sung Homme has very strong top notes, which experts say it is one of the characteristics of aromatic fougeres; however, the whole composition has average longevity.

Top notes are dominated by close to the skin floral / paper-like notes for the wearer. In the case of those around him, they might get only the sweet floral notes, which might be due to the presence of geranium. Base notes are classical in structure.

I marked Sung as a "like," (3 Stars) though the introduction is somewhat of a turn off. What you want to wait for is the dry-down. Sung is extremely potent. 1-2 sprays max. Full sprays aren't necessary whatsoever. If you can possibly press the sprayer cap down halfway, try that. Otherwise, 1 full spray will last you all day long and then some. Spread it out once it's applied to the skin... anything more would probably kill a plant.

Sung Homme opens similar to, and as strong as, Quorum by Antonio Puig. I immediately thought of Quorum's slightly harsh soapiness when I first smelled this. It has a similar feel to it, but the two scents are different. If you like Quorum you might like Sung Homme as well.

The conifer notes dominate, along with the aldehydes, for the first hour, then after an hour it sweetens up with some florals and takes on a sweet mossy spiciness, still soapy. Longevity and sillage are very good. Very masculine.

I agree: it's a bit strong, but at the same time it's quite fresh.

Excellent scent. One of my all-time favorites. It is quite strong though, but because of that, it lasts a long time.

I really can't make many accurate comparisons, but it is kinda floral/musky/spicy. It is enigmatic.
