I dont care what people thinks of this beautiful fragrance but in my nose it smells of pardise. Just because is The Guerlain who made it, is not important that it should be just perfect for your taste and requirements.

it is fresh, sweet and warm at the same time and perfect for all seasons and especially the evening.

I love this fragrance and I feel as a wild animal(bad boy),sexy and attractive.

My boyfriend and I recently purchased this fragrance for his best friend for his graduation from law school. It was tough deciding on a fragrance for a clean-cut and preppy, yet trendy man in his mid-twenties, but we found this one to be perfect.

Staying true to it's reference to the mojito, Guerlain Homme is refreshing and minty, clean and citrusy. The mint lasts for quite a while and though the lime is definitely there, it's not bitter, nor overpowering at all.

This is a great choice for someone just starting out in a new profession - in our friend's case: someone who doesn't usually wear fragrance and going from student to law professional. It smells great and stays relatively close to the skin, yet it makes a classy statement and is stylish without being too trendy.

Modern, classic and fresh; it's a safe bet if you're looking for a fragrance gift for a clean-cut young man who will be wearing a suit to work every day. The mint and citrus definitely provide a cooling effect.

Oh NO! The Guerlain that's not very...uhm GUERLAIN! There was much anticipation for this, but fell short of my expectations of Guerlain. Thierry Wasser has taken the house outside of its normal "boundaries" and created a fresh and modern approach (read younger) to this scent.

It starts with a mild "mojito" accord of fresh citruses and a mild mint. Nothing to awaken the senses with curiosity. Pleasant, refreshing, and you start detecting hints of a deep seated masculinity about this scent. There is a floral heart, not awfully perceivable or noticeable, but I give this credit because this is the mark of great classic perfumery--Luca Turin always mentions that there should be a floral note in all perfumes, including masculine perfumes.

At the base, this is where the "animal" emerges. The scent becomes warmer, animalic, not in the sense of an oriental type of fragrance, but you smell a restrained sexuality with the use of vetiver, a deep cedar, and I suspect patchouli to round out and give off that sensual "sweaty" B.O. accord.

Overall, the scent is basically a fresh scent with a sensuous base. Wasser, as I have read, was trying to be comical with its creation by being very un-Guerlain about the scent.

A good creation, but I'm still sitting on the fence wondering if this is befitting of the Guerlain house's heritage.

personally me this fragrance very disappointed, because I as other perfume lovers know more better and very distinctive perfumes of GUerlain. Fragrance is enough boring and ordinary, even vulgar , non poetic - especial when you compare it with such Guerlain's masterpieces as Vetiver, Habit Rouge, Instant, Coriolan, L'Instant de Guerlain pour homme... In future I hope GUerlain noses will create more better perfume pour homme....of course, it's my very personal opinion

Superb fragrance. Be sure to test this when you go to a store. It is exceptionally modern and charming. A girl told me that it was the second ever fragrance that made her want to eat a man after JPG Le Male :)

A nice scent, I also like the bottle. But it's too tame, too restrained, where is the statement? It may be good for certain occasions, but honestly I would not compare it with Vétiver, L'Instant or Habit Rouge by Guerlain.

I have bought this for my man, its really manly when i smell it and I am sure he will like. I can wait to smell it on him.

this is God!I've never smelled a fragrance for men that smells as provocative as this one.it's like it's screaming :"I'm expensive,I'm sexy"
although it has some kind of classic smelling,it's blended in the modern way.very sensual,very provocative, very strong and very luxury!
I really got the lime scent at the first sniff.mint is very well mixed.it's not like toothpaste.it's like a man who smells very good.
I'm sure I can't resist the man who wears this!

I sampled Guerlain PH and my immediate reaction was "Mmmmm....this is really good." I love Tommy Bahama's 'Very Cool' because of the mojito accord. For those unfamiliar with a mojito, it is a drink made with ground mint leaves, lime, sugar cane juice, carbonated water, and white rum. I'd describe mojito used in Very Cool and Guerlain as primarily a lime essence but not the lime candy type. This is lime with the gentle spiciness of sugar cane, mixed with rum and wrapped in a very light mint. It is a heavenly lime and extremely pleasant. Very Cool is great for warm weather, the beach, etc. Guerlain's mojito, however, is far more intense making it a better selection for the office or a night on the town. Now, toss in a slight floral background (very nice), and some really wonderful cedar & vetiver in the drydown. Why shouldn't the vetiver be great? Guerlain essentially pioneered it and has the best vetiver in the world.

Okay I liked it. How did others react? The day I wore it to the office, my receptionist commented "Mr.______ whatever you're wearing smells so good." After a pause, she added "No, that smells damn good." Later my secretary came into my office and asked what fragrance I was wearing. Her exact words were "...that is 'rape-elicious' good." She then wrote down Guerlain PH on her notepad and said she was buying some for her man. Well, momma didn't raise a fool. I went out and bought a second bottle right away.

Guerlain PH has great staying power on me and obviously has good sillage. I absolutely love wearing it. Sample it and make your own judgment.

I finally tested this, i have been very excited that Guerlain introduced a new fragrance and marketed it with the duality concept.

When i felt the bottle in my hands i was amazed. CK Euphoria and Terre D'Hermes both have metal/glass bottles but Guerlain Homme is much more successful with the mix. The use of metal makes the bottle extremely attractive.

I was amazed when i had the first spray. I could smell fresh, green and alcoholic notes.

Then the alcoholic notes weakened and floral-woody notes came in.

4-5 hours later, all aromatic notes faded away. Woody notes stayed moderately close to my skin. After 6-7 hours the scent was completely gone. So, this is moderate in terms of lasting power.

I do not agree the campaign at all. I could not live any phase which was capable of making me get in touch with the animal inside. The fragrance was all about modernity.

This is a very unique fragarance. Utterly modern. I have some fragarances
that contain rum, vodka and other alcoholic beverages and i really like them. But i do not classify them as animalic just because they contain alcoholic notes that turns a human to an animal when consumed. So, i guess majority would agree that just because this fragarance contains does not mean that it will be animalic.

In summary, this is a very modern, fresh-green-flowery-woody fragrance. It can be used anytime and anywhere.

I haven´t been able to try this one yet because where I live it´s kind of hard to find good fragrances (other than mainstream like Hugo or D&G by the price of course of 400 US$ each :o) but it sounds very interesting in spite of the very diverse opinions. I´m looking forward to try it when I travel overseas for the holidays

I actually admire this fragrance. If you leave all the Perfume mogul brand "Guerlain" aside, you may actually find its playful part.

The green (mint) accord, part of "Mojito accord," is really good, lasting across two major parts, which are citrus and floral. So, in general, I kinda get the idea of dualism, an idea they put in the press release. (But please, leave this "For the animal in you" campaign, it's just misleading.)

So, it's not resembling an animalism figure. To me, Guerlain Homme presents a sophisticated, non-conformist character, at a bar, definitely not in jungle.

I'm very agree with CountAnubis. If this one came from CK, or Hugo, or Versace. It's ok. But Homme comes from Guerlain. It's such a big disappointment. It's just an everage scent. Some fresh, some spicy, some woody thing. Everything's balance. It's modern, easy to smell, and more easy to find it boring. The bottle is ugly, like fake. This scent's is not mature enough to have the animality in its contain.

Its sadly quite boring. Its just a fresh mainstream scent. Extremly balanced without any edges or interesting twists.
Just fresh at the beginning, with a hint of mint, lime and a bit of frutiness, than a bit spiciy and than the averge aromatic main notes that make you think you've smelled them before in so many other creations.

I mean its not bad, its absolutly balanced, but its boring, has nothing new.So its maybe the right present for somone who dont have much fragrances or even no one. Its a good "Beginners" fragrance. ;)

But the advert is realy missleading, because there is definitly no animalistic side, its just fresh even kind of sporty and aromatic. I thought Guerlain had more courage in creating fragrances but maybe even they realized they must throw out somthing "mainstreamy" for the upcoming christmas business like so many other brands.

simply wonderful.. sure this will open many opinions ,

the floral-fruity base mixed with some spicy touch make it very unique and modern.. dont think in classics guerlain with this, the brand tried to open views to a younger vibe...

its good and manly i dont know why is this criticism, its fresh and masculine with a very nice sweet dry down.
09/28/08 04:04:07
on top notes it's fresh... but after it's very,very,very gross,havey... i belive it's for the smoker man! And i also don't like the fact that they made a very aggressive publicity... just to mutch!
09/23/08 15:13:35
 
I am also disappointed! I expected it more spicy, manly, spontaneous and wild :)
this is certainly not for a tiger, not to mention the lion ;)
rather for the office cat!

I am currently trying this and so far I am disappointed. Perhaps because this is quite different from previous Guerlain scents for men, which I usually quite like. Yes, the "mojito accord", the lime and the mint are there and very noticeable in the opening notes. Fresh, but nothing ground-breaking. This develops into what seems to be (to me) a very disorganised floral heart which I didn't like much. The sweet woody base then makes a welcome appearance, but to me it is a little too sweet, perhaps because of the rum and sugar cane notes. On a side note, the ads say "For the animal in you", yet there is obviously *nothing* animalistic in this fragrance.

I have sample, the mint is strong in it, and the vetiver is too. But what is Mojito? After one minute I found the lime.At least it is not spicy.
