Lalique Pour Homme Equus Lalique for men

very similar to carolina herera ch men

Lalique Equus is a gift to the lover of dark woody scents like the much-lamented Yves Saint Laurent M7. The bottle is heavy and beautiful with the horse head etched deeply into the back of the glass. From the perfume top I get very little citrus and a huge blast of nutmeg. After a short while, the nutmeg recedes a bit (or perhaps my nose adapts to it) and blends with the other spices and violet leaf and strong dark woody notes to give a beautiful and long-lasting heart. I think "sequoia" is a reasonable description of this heart, though don't think sequoia or redwood trees yield any commercial oils and I hope that these rare and magnificent trees are not cut down for our vanity. Based on Lalique's note list, I suspect the "sequoia" is a combination of nutmeg, mace, cedar, and amyris (similar to sandalwood), or perhaps the whole mirage is from combined synthetics. Whatever the composition, it is magnificent and unique to my experience. The spicy notes last a remarkably long time, but eventually they do give way to a milder but still rich wood and benzoin base, with a bit of musk, leather, and vetiver. The base is very nice, but the unusually long-lasting heart is what shines in this work of art. It feels ferocious, contemplative, tenebrous, radiant, earthy, and pure by turns.

If you have admired Yves Saint Laurent M7 or Dior Fahrenheit Absolute or any other dark woody scent, or even think you might admire them, you should sample Lalique Equus.

A true masterpiece, with a complex cedar-musk infusion. When it settles down I smell violets and a magic liquorice elixir; is transparent, seductive, enchanting, it feels part of my skin and my thoughts ,Lalique equus is the Amanita Muscaria of all fragrances, an olfactory hallucinogenic journey to the senses .

I'm wearing LPH Equus right now and what I like the most is the quality. You start enjoying Equus from the moment you open the box, then the bottle and the smell... the mind anticipates and create the illusion that you are already getting the sequoia note (or actually get it, if you have already spray it). That woodsy note is present through all the experience, deserves a full review and provides Equus whit an earthy and balmy odor profile. Yes it's wood, but You know it's a very special one.
Maybe it's me, but in the opening I get a lot of nutmeg and juniper, not the citruses. On the dry down there's no leather or musk note, but the effect is there, the composition get very sensual and some animal, then the citruses and cardamom appear. This is sensual in a very smooth and elegant way.
Duration is very good, when you wake up, a little bit of the base is there, not in your wrist, but there it is. Sillage is moderate, but the two fragances I own from Lalique has this thing I really like: hours later a note escape from time to time, you get close to your wrist and nothing, but then again, another note escape. Not for a blind buy, but I strongly recommend the experience.

Ahora mismo uso LPH Equus y lo que más me gusta es la calidad. Comienzas a disfrutar Equus desde el momento en que abres la caja, luego la botella y el olor... la mente se anticipa y crea la ilusión de que ya estás obteniendo la nota de secuoya (o así es, si ya has utilizado la botella). Esa nota amaderada está presente durante toda la experiencia y merece su propia revisión, al tiempo que le da a Equus un perfil olfativo térreo y balsámico. Sí, es madera, pero sabes que se trata de una muy especial.
Quizá sea yo, pero en la apertura percibo mucha nuez moscada y junípero, pero no cítricos. En el secado no hay nota de piel o musk, pero su efecto está ahí. La composición se pone muy sensual y algo animal, entonces aparecen los cítricos y el cardamomo. Es una sensualidad discreta y elegante.
La duración es muy buena, cuando despiertas, un poco de la base sigue ahí, no en tu muñeca, pero está ahí. La proyección es moderada, pero las dos fragancias que tengo de Lalique tienen eso que realmente me gusta: horas después una nota escapa de cuando en cuando, te acercas a la muñeca y nada, pero entonces de nuevo, otra nota escapa. No recomiendo una compra a ciegas pero sí y mucho, la experiencia.

یک کار فوق العاده از خانواده لالیک

They group this fragrance as a oriental spicy fragrance but I think it's woody spicy!
The opening is strong and spicy with huge dose of nutmeg and juniper and hint of bergamut and lemon.
After a few seconds the spicy scent settles down and give space for the main note of this fragrance! I mean the Sequoia wood!
In the drydown the Sequoia wood is there with hint of vetiver and violet in the background.
Very natural and beautiful scent which is so pleasant and classy. you will have this amazing scent until this fragrance die on your skin.
The drydown and base are really smooth and relaxing. this is not a fall and winter fragrance. I think it's great for spring and summer nights and also cool summer days.
Average projection and longevity.
يه عطر عالي ديگه از لاليك محبوب
رايحه ابتدايي اين عطر كمي تنده. اولش تركيب قوي جوز هندي نوعي گياه بنام جونيپر هست كه رايحه خيلي ملايمي از ليمو و ترنج هم اينا رو همراهي ميكنن
خيلي سريع و چند ثانيه بعد از تندي عطر تا حد زيادي كم ميشه و رايحه اصلي اين عطر شروع به خودنمايي ميكنه.منظورم رايحه چوب درختي هست كه به سرخ چوب معروفه
رايحه اين چوب رو مقدار خيلي كمي وتيور و گل وايولت همراهي ميكنن كه بويي بسيار طبيعي، ملايم و آرامش بخش رو ايجاد ميكنن و آدمو ميبرن تو حال و هواي جنگل هاي شمال تو فصل بهار
بوي اين عطر خيلي قوي نيست و به نظر من بدرد بهار و تابستون ميخوره
پخش بو و ماندگاري متوسطي داره
متاسفانه اين عطر تو بازار ديگه به هيچ وجه پيدا نميشه و منم فقط اين افتخار نصيبم شد كه يه بار از روي يه تستر كه يكي داشت اين عطر خوبُ تست كنم. خيلي حيف شد

Since I pretty much loved every Lalique I could sniff, I just bought this one blind even not liking predominantly woody fragrances. And I'm not one bit disappointed!

Lalique Equus is indeed strong, but not overpowering. Its woodiness doesn't make it "macho", it makes the scent classy and, as someone have already said, charismatic. If I would compare this fragrance to the the animal that names it, this is no mustang or wild horse, this a smart thoroughbred suited for world class polo players.

As far as notes are concerned, I had no full wearings yet, but it seems to last quite a bit on my skin. It is spicy and dry, the Nutmeg and Sequoia play great roles in it, but also somewhat comforting and energizing. Great purchase!

I hate the usual, "masculine," strong woody fragrances, and I don't like violet leaf, but this fragrance is very well done, about as good as it gets if you like balanced,.dynamic, natural smelling ones, as I do. There seems to be a bit of a vanilla/ambery aspect that eventually comes out, softening it up and providing a little sweetneess, though that's not listed among the notes. Projection ("sillage") is moderate at best (I have only tried the EdT), but longevity is quite good (I got some on my shirt and that lasted a very long time). I look forward to wearing this again to see if my opinion has changed, because I generally find these strong wood fragrances to be too harsh. I'll update if I do change my mind, but as things stand, this could be a niche fragrance selling for a lot more money, IMO.

I like rarekind of perfumes. Based on great review about Lalique Pour Homme Equus, I got this as a bling buy. I am dissapointed. This does not smell anyhting unique.

Top notes smells spicy and vanished within 30 minutes. Then the base woody tones appear and vanish within 30 minutes. This fragrance never lasts more than an hour. Some times I think I got a old expired bottle.

Have you ever smelt sequoia? Put a peace of this hard wood into water and let it suck the water adequately then add some herbs and smell it! You're smelling this perfume.
Definitely a woody masterpiece which I haven't seen and smelt similar yet. Close to skins it smells the wood and its bark and people just smell an herbal aromatic woody masterpiece with bold leather and juniper tone.
From the middle to the end it smells deeper and mistier. Deep, dark, wet, sweet-bitter, poisonous and aromatic. Something which if I smell on others I can't hide my emotions! Exciting and so charming; rarely people use this kind of perfumes, instead of who loves uniqueness.
A chic and casual phenomenon which my brother was more clever and bought it! I must buy it but not so good idea if two brothers smell similar! I envy him!

longevity 8/10
sillage 8/10
scent 10/10

Pour Homme Equus opnes with an accord of fresh citrus (mainly lemon), violet leaf and a considerable dose of cardamom. I also get some other (peppery) spices but can't exactly detect them as they're not distinct enough. The overall effect of the opening brings to my mind of indian chai tea (not the Starbucks one) without ginger and sour cream. It turns then to a woody musk base that's well executed but not very distinctive. PHE is smooth and somehow appealing but it simply doesn't match with my taste.

Rating: 6.5-7/10

Great, great, great fragrance. So classy, elegant and sophisticated. It's gonna be my signature scent. Not too loud, but longevity is great on my skin.
Beautiful bottle.Now I see, how much money I waisted on crappy, but trendy scents. Another standing ovation for Lalique...

I found a miniature of this perfume, grab it. This perfume is really nice, firm and very classy! Like it so much, unfortunately hard to find the 100ml here. Want it so badly!

Wow! This one (EdP) smells like a circus arena or a hamster cage. :D Does that sound weird? But it really is an amazing, awesome, fantastic and unique fragrance. I freakin' love it! If you have any cheerful memories connected with circus you'll love it too. :-)

Longevity is quite good. Sillage, however, is rather mild, and that's the only drawback, but it still doesn't deprive it of its magnificence and beauty. Wonderful creation!

9/10

I need to sample it again... i had it but barely remember the scent. I know it was great on me and short lasting...but what a GREAT scent! Perfect every day scent!

Such a luxury scent, absolutely love it. The longevity is average (5 hours).
Lalique and Cartier has the best perfumes in my opinion.

Unique, lalique's signature type of fragrance. Differ to all other ones I collect, white and la faune. The bottle represent one of the powerful animal in zodiac. Truly worth for the name it bears and lasting creation of all times.
I hope lalique will continue to make gentlemen's signature perfumes.

absolutely my favorite woodsy, leather rugged smell in my collection. Long lasting it is not, but comfortable to wear, in the fall.

My favorite of Lalique.

Just a little sweetness in it, and well balanced. Again, it lacks in sillage and his longevity is average. I lived an incredible olfactive journey with this one.

9/10

great scent. I like equus very much. Sillage is good but it not last long only 4 hours. The bottle is beautiful.

First there was vibrant citrus, very refreshing but not sharp and tangy. More like a very expensive glass of cool lemon-lime juice.

The heart is interesting and yet familiarly comforting. Something green and bitter and aromatic. I got the clean vetiver and it soon followed by leather. The brief leather and vetiver combination was the darkest phrase you could get from Equus, as the rest of it was so blissfully soft, airy, tasty and sophisticated.

I would say it was the best from Lalique if I didn't found Encre Noire.

no, no, no...you don t get it at all..equus is the best offer from lalique! strong, sexy, spicy and absolutly unique!!! great scent, that impressed me from the very first sniff..

Equus is very spicy and herbal.
Also, very lonlasting.

I can smell a lot of nutmeg, cardamom, vetiver and woods. The citruses in the beginning last very shortly. Just a fling ;)
I don't get any leather.

It's a charming fragrance. Charismatic, but not too strong or overpowering, seducing, but also keeping distance.
For a mature, self-confident man who doesn't need to be the soul of the party to prove his merit.
Golden!

I can call it the younger brother of lalique pour homme.
it's the modest and sophisticated version of the lion.the silage has done well in here.violet leaf is very sharp but a good sharp,not the ones I dislike.more spicy specially at the base notes and...
it's rejuvenate and discreet.the longevity is amazing,just like the lion.
I'm afraid that my man likes the lion more than horse.we've had some arguments about this matter!but I guess this is the one for the 'introverted' men,as the lion is for the 'extroverted' man.D is in the recent groups,while I'm from the first group.so we have different tastes.
