After Sculpture for women, Nikos launched Sculpture pour Homme, a fragrance for men. The perfume is quite unusual, just like the version for women, and it is really difficult to sort it into one category. The fragrance is very sensual, with a scent of light, moderate sweetness, fresh opening and an aromatic heart. The top notes contain bergamot, lemon, mandarin and orange blossom. The heart encompasses cedar, balmy notes of Tonka bean, ambergris and benzoin. Its bottle is shaped like a sail, in accordance with the designer’s idea. The fragrance is aimed at reminding you of Mediterranean wind and a slow seaside walk and was created in 1995.

Base Notes
VERY sophisticated...VERY exotic....A VERY mature fragrance. It has a VERY European slant to it.
At the drydown it's similar to Versace's Bright Crystal.
In my final analyze of this scent. Bought this blindly because of the seemingly rather large accolades attributed to this scent coming from this site from customers who appear to have picked this scent as their signature fragrance after having sifted through thousands of fragrances that they've collected over the years. Its reputed attributes of sweetness and white floral made me decide that I could try wearing it myself although its predominantly marketed at the male market. I tried this on myself but unfortunately it didn't work with my body chemistry. Fortunately I decided to risk it and gave it to my Lover as a present hoping that it would smell better on him than on me. Wow-did it ever. He was very pleased with this scent. What's so nice about it is that this scent is not commonly available in most retails stores in my area so not everyone is wearing it.
I bought this bottle blindly due to the reviews I thought I must give this ago. Its early stages yet. I definitely think a woman could wear this scent but I want to try it out on my boyfriend first before giving my overall impression. I'll post back here soon.
A long lasting, dual-dimensional scent, which starts of all macho, then ends up all cute and cuddly...
I applied 6 heavy sprays
0-2 mins, old skool, slightly dated..
2 mins - 4 hours - approx 2 foot of good projection. The 1st dimension is all Italian stallion and 80% like Versace the Dreamer, yet there is at the same time the start of the 2nd dimension which blends a soft twist (20%), like a gentle undercoat, which masks the Dreamer and gives the scent its own personality. Yet this still feels like a basic scent..
4 hours - 7 hours - 2 inch projection. The 2nd dimension comes more and more to the fore..
7 hours - 16 hours - Very long lasting and with 1 inch projection which is rare. The macho male in the 1st dimension has been 80% replaced by the 2nd dimensions - a more subtle, soft and alluring perfume... yet the macho hangs around - approx 20% - to remind the wearer that this soft stuff remains true to its masculinity - This is the best bit and the scent feels much more complex now and very nice
The opening attracts its partner,.. wheras the drydown makes them fall in love with you..
Good
Sweet citrus opening, then lovely floral aromatic smell. It is fresh, warm, sweet and really long lasting. There is nothing synthetic about this, smells very natural and brings good vibrations.I think this is wonderful spring and summer fragrance, but also suitable for any day when we need extra positive energy... Brightened my day instantly.
I bought it for my husband and he loves it. But, it is so beautiful that I think everybody should wear it... Me too :)
Lovely Unique, very strange and kind of magical aroma.
It smells vanilla at the drydown even if it isn't listed on the ingredients.
I bought it today and it smells perfect. It's an unusual perfume and its scent is fine.
a good smell.reminding me "minotaure"by paloma picasso.very nice in winter time
It is a very unique sweet/flowery fragrance. it is so nice and so well complimented. i was impressed by the refined smell. great for signature scent and you can no go wrong with that. give it a try. is from a greek designer but better than most of the other fragrance designers out there.
Unique and perfect!!!! I want it so badly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cool and unique.
It is a truly remarkable scent at all levels.
Excellent as a signature scent.
I approve.
Nothing innovative new and absolutely fabulous, but good enough to be commented.
Chesco - Barcelona - 2002-2004 - What memories!
look Dunhill Red, Dunhill Blue
A very nice fragrance, actually a cheap treat now. I find it smelling like orange blossoms, with some vanilla hints( just a suggestion). Very unisex, but very sexy and very good for a designer fragrance. To me, it evokes Serge Lutens-Fleurs d'oranger( of course in a CK way- not as refined as SL). It does not resemble Le Male at all( maybe Classique), but it should be a top seller, rather than Bleu de Chanel and other things bottled as luxury perfumes.The lasting power is decent: not for an oriental, more for a floral oriental fragrance, but still- you don't get any issues with that. A woman can pull it off also, and in a very sensual manner.I don't know why they don't make a bath or body oil for two with this scent.
Love it! In my opinion it's a fresher version of Joop, less sugary but still very distinctive and sweet for men that don't mind wearing these kind of fragrances. Ideal for summer, the lasting power is not as long as joop but its also less overwhealming.
Women can wear it too.
I love it so much.Bought it blindly,will get another one.love it,love it,love it.
It is the daily signature scent of my husband and he wore this, when we had known each other, which was 12 years ago.
He got the advice to buy this from his exgirl.
It is absolutely must have for guys, which want to be hugged from us, women. It is so adorable, not penetrant, tender and delicate! I love this!!!!
Not for the most masculine of men. It is, however, a very sensual scent with a vanillic drydown. Women can pull this off easily. Very airy, mysterious and simply headturning. Sillage is good, longevity is average however.
DO NOT blind-buy, and especially this fragrance. It definately is one of those love or hate scents.
A unique sugary smell.
The sweetness is not coming from vanilla like many other .It came from sugar and benzoin.
Very appealing scent to my nose but not that quality.
It contains ELEVEN BILLION % sugar and is probably responsible for the massive rise in diabetes in the United States.
Intimately resembles to DUNHILL DESIRE, except that SCULPTURE has its unique "stinging" starting top!
Both are magnificently refreshing, if I had to choose one of them, I'd like the stinginess of SCULPTURE!
Notes / scent: 3
Longevity / sillage: 4
Overall / subjective feelings: 3.5
Description: strange, a bit overwhelming, in which next to oriental something disturbingly sweet lurks
Short opinion: definitely not for everyone, and it would be that one will love and hate the other
I love it! It's very original and unique fragrance... Very long lasting.
very nice unique perfume. everyone likes this and is indeed something special.
This is nice - reminds me of a muted down Minotaure (Paloma Picasso)
This one is so sweet, makes my head pain alot, for real.
This is one fantastic warm and sensual scent!
A very sharp opening penetrates your nose and opens it up for the fantastic fresh - but by far not as lemonny as you'd expect from the notes displayed - topnotes.
The topnotes fade away pretty quickly to make room for and blend in with the very light and flowery middle notes.
Quickly - I'd say within the hour - the vanilla - which is not listed above but is most definitely there! - and hints of tonka bean and amber shine through, leaving only very light traces of the top and middle notes behind.
What remains is a very warm and heavenly scent. I've heard people compare it to Le Male, but Nikos Sculpture is far more sophisticated, subtle and classy than it's blue bottled loudmouth colleague.
I'm not even halfway through my last 50 ml bottle, but have already bought the next 100 ml.
Nikos Sculpture is a fantastic scent for any occasion!
I bought this in Tokyo last May at Loft in Shibuya. Very nice indeed.
Great fragrance
at first it is specific citrus and little aquatic but hour or so later it start's to be wonderfouly sweet without too much spicy, someone sayd "sea of sugar" and I see it pretty much like that. It is long lasting and really nice.
one of the best perfumes in the market. Very Nice, warm, fresh and masculine.
this is my secret perfume:P and i had got it in 1995
One of me first perfumes. Is fresh and strong.
This is Beautiful, vibrant, and full of Joy. Enjoy your life with!
evet denedim güzel hafif ve zaman içinde kendine dogru ceken bir kokusu oldugunu düşünüyorum...
this s my best perfume ... more masculine & very sexy ..ask me guys
i got a present of this and now im hunting it down!!!!!i havent seen itin any shops in ireland!!!
I bought three bottles of this one! I think it's a great cologne to wear during the day. Fresh, and not a common scent.
My boy friend's perfume. Love it on him, but not when we go on a date in the evening. its more like a day perfume. Also, its not very long lasting which is a shame, cuz it has a really good smell, and i wish i could sniff it for a longer time.
One of my best fragance as it has one of the best vanilla scents, all'thou feels a bit syntetic (i'm not a fan of vanilla scents). It's fresh & a bit sweet at the opening, but love the drydown... The sweetness adds to the sensual part but still keeps a comfy-light mood. Love it.
