Cabaret Pour Homme Gres for men

What a brilliant retro scent! Its rather complex for the 21stC market. Its not sweet. Its a fougere in every sense. Toss in some jasmine, lily of the valley and wormwood and you find the last in line of the now lost class. A tribute to the absinthe era!

Its pure seduction in a bottle. The patcholi, vetiver and oakmoss lend a comfortable familiarity. They carefully surround the florals and soften the woods. It always reminds me of snow and winter. Its perfect for snuggling up with a good book or the one you love.

It was barely on the radar of American shelves. What a shame! There is still some bottle on E-bay. Its worth getting a big bottle for lovers of the fougere.

Discovered this upon a suggestion by a very experienced member here. It is very floral, making me think of a real Cabaret, full of frivolity and joy and strong feminine signals.
I love the pineapple note, it gives a carnal note in this jasmine-lavender-lily of the valley bouquet, like just a bit of sweat. It's a Cabaret, remember ? not your aunts flower garden.
Very sensual and - to my surprise - a 100% male scent.

I always fancied trying this fragrance then I got the oppurtunity to get 8 bottles for £12 ! I couldnt believe my luck !

It was a blind buy and I'ts definately one of my favourites ! Yeah I can see that some people may find this fragance a little 'dated' I prefer the word 'refined' . Really well made fragrance with good staying power . I will enjoy this for years to come :)

This one, just like the Molinard Homme II, is also a sweet oriental for men, not soo deep as the Molinard, but quite elegant for sure!

I bought this one for my husband quite a while ago! Look at these wonderful notes !! It is truly wonderful and something else for a change!!

Very masculine, long-lasting fragrance that strikes me more as a woody musk than oriental fougere. The sillage hums with sophistication with the understated elegance of bespoke clothing.

The opening is almost watery in a cool forest air fashion - I think that's the juniper berries lightened by pineapple. The floral mid notes rise quickly and blend with the herbs in the top notes, almost as if there's no middle. But the real treasure is in the drydown. Ah, oakmoss, vetiver & wormwood bitterness warmed by tonka and spiced up by cloves & patchouli with musk pulsing through like a beating heart. Very, very nice indeed.

The photo doesn't do the bottle justice. It's actually quite handsome with its "bakelite" top and thin profile. The red ribs in the glass feel good to hold, as would, I think, any man classy enough to wear this.

Uhm... Reading its composition, it sounds like an interesting fragrance that I would like to try - despite its cheap looking bottle and packaging... Italo's review was obviously translated using some online translating tool, and it's a bit difficult for me to understand. Has anyone tried this?

The good perfume clean fouguer,usual and very versatile, it combines with countless occasions if not limiting the night or day very apparent, mixed lavender the coriander a touch indol of lily of the valley, notes of fresh mint,an amber bottom and comfortable and hot vetier .
