Alexandria UK The Pour Homme II is an Eau de Parfum. The Pour Homme II opens with Bergamot and Violet Leaf, settles into a heart of Black Tea, Cinnamon, and Allspice, and dries down to a base of Olive Tree, Tobacco, and Myrrh. Alexandria UK's The Pour Homme II carries an Acquired verdict, a spicy-led wear.

A budget echo of the now-discontinued Gucci Pour Homme II, trading the original's smooth violet-tea blend for a spicier, less refined tobacco-and-myrrh drydown that fades noticeably sooner on skin.

About

The Pour Homme II borrows Gucci Pour Homme II's cult-favourite blueprint: violet leaf and bergamot up top, a black tea and spice heart, tobacco leaf and resin underneath. Where the discontinued original was prized for its refined, almost bookish restraint, this Alexandria version pushes cinnamon and pimento harder in the heart and arrives at its tobacco-myrrh base faster, with a rougher, more rustic texture throughout. It captures the general silhouette well enough to satisfy fans hunting a stand-in for a scent that has been off shelves for years, but the original's legendary smoothness and depth are only sketched here, and the wear time is markedly shorter.
