Lolita Lempicka perfume Lempicka Homme EDT 100 ml

I got oddly fascinated with the original Lempicka Au Masculine in the last year. Realizing it was discontinued, sort of bummed I wouldn't be able to get more (at least reasonably priced....) But a fellow Basenoter pointed out that Lempicka Homme was very close. Hadn't even known about this one. I found a bottle at local discount brick and mortar at a very good price. And it is fairly close to the original. It's a very nice scent. You have to like a licorice/anise/absinth kind of vibe because that's the main thrust of this scent. It's a bit sweet and licorice like, but to my nose falls short of full blown gourmand candy like. I feel a bit too old to go super sweet sugary and this hits a nice spot I feel comfortable with. I still prefer Au Masculine but I'm still getting to know this Homme version a bit. I will agree it's strongly related to Au Masculine and you won't be horribly disappointed if you like the original. Two thumbs up!

Really lovely fragrance. Initial smell is a subtle anise mixed with fresh florals. Then you get beautiful sweetness, a very nice vanilla with violet, hint of leather, and woody notes. I love that the liquorice and violet notes aren’t overpowering, but work really well together. Projection and longevity are average I would say, not bad by any means. I personally prefer fragrances that aren’t loud or obnoxious. People will smell this on you without their noses being assaulted. I hadn’t tried the original ‘Au Masculin’ so I can’t compare it to that. The notes in this appealed to me as I like sweeter, more gourmand fragrances. So I decide to blind buy at a reasonable price and can say I am not disappointed and quite love this one.

This gets a bad rep from a lot of people. I don’t know why.. but that bad rep is what kept me hesitant to buy this new version of this fantastic fragrance. To my nose this smells identical to Au Masculin, and performs just as good.. if not, better! furthermore, it’s one of the few gourmand fragrances that gets me compliments from both men and women. In Florida, where it’s mostly hot and humid year round, people here prefer fresh citrus, fruity, floral, aquatic, and blue fragrances.. so the odds of receiving a compliment with something like this, are slim to none, but this is an exception! I personally already love this, since I first tried the original over a decade ago, and now.. am happy to add it back to my rotation! Fwiw, If you like this, I would highly recommend checking out Green Lover. The name might be misleading to my fellow potheads, unfortunately no marijuana here, but a fantastic version of this, with emphasis on green notes!

This new Lolita Lempicka for men is great. It is very similar to the previous "Masculine" and that was a long time favorite for me. This one is just as nice.

Unique frangrance. Luv the fennel/anise and vanilla. Hidden gem.
