Scandal Pour Homme Parfum

Which Should You Buy?
The 1912 multi-floral benchmark, and still one of the most complete florals in production. Green and sharp on top, enormously dense in the heart, mossy and animalic underneath. Grand rather than easy, and worth its reputation.
A modern homage to classic masculine fougères, Scandal Pour Homme is a high-quality, barbershop-fresh scent with undeniable charm. It's divisive only on price; the scent itself is a well-loved, if familiar, crowd-pleaser for the discerning gentleman.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Oakmoss, sandalwood and a civet-style animalic base give it the weight for autumn and winter, while the galbanum and bergamot-led green opening keeps it wearable in spring. Heat pushes the indolic jasmine and tuberose too far.
Occasions
The density of the floral heart and the strength of the drydown make this a formal and evening fragrance. It is too loud and too characterful for a shared office or the gym.
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Its refined, inoffensive, classic profile makes it perfect for formal and office settings where a polished image is key. While versatile, its luxurious nature and moderate projection make it less suited for casual, high-energy activities like sport.
