Touch Me EDP

Which Should You Buy?
A powerhouse of vintage French masculinity - brooding, leathery, and unapologetically bold. Wear it if you crave gravitas and command attention with a scent that defines the word 'gentleman' in its original, uncompromising sense.
Touch Me reworks Nabeel's classic Touch Me - the bright saffron-rose opening melting into a linear oud and warm amber base. The dupe lands the oriental shape but the oud sits flatter and the rose tartness softer, with shorter staying power than the famously tenacious original.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
The dense patchouli-leather heart and animalic-earthy base make this fragrance ideal for cooler months and autumnal transitions, where its richness is best appreciated. The spicy warmth and low freshness can overwhelm in heat but shine in fall and winter.
Occasions
Gentleman Original’s commanding, complex leather and patchouli presence marks it as a statement for formal settings and evening wear. Its boldness and animalic undertone may be too assertive for office or sports, but lend confidence and gravitas to sophisticated occasions.
Seasons
The warm oud, amber and spice profile is made for cold autumn and winter wear, overpowering in summer heat.
Occasions
Rich and sensual, it suits evenings, dates and formal occasions over daytime casual use.
