Angel Schlesser Angel Schlesser Homme is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2001, created by Thierry Wasser. Angel Schlesser Homme opens with Bergamot, settles into a heart of Rice, Cedar, Sandalwood, and Vetiver, and dries down to a base of Musk, Oakmoss, and Canadian Fir Balsam. Angel Schlesser's Angel Schlesser Homme carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.

A fascinating 'love-it-or-hate-it' classic from Thierry Wasser that dares to be different. The rice note is the star here, divisive but undeniably unique. It's not a powerhouse, but its subtle charm and unusual character make it a compelling choice for those seeking something outside the usual freshie playbook.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Its fresh, clean, and subtle projection makes it perfect for the office or casual wear, where it won't overwhelm. While some find it suitable for dates, its distinct rice note and generally weak performance make it less ideal for formal events requiring a more impactful presence.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

  • Lavender Lavandula Hybrida Oil from Lavender
  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Angel Schlesser Homme opens with a fleeting, bright bergamot that quickly recedes, giving way to a warm, starchy basmati rice note, subtly spiced with ginger, star anise, cardamom, and cinnamon. Lavender and vetiver emerge, adding an aromatic green freshness, while a dry down of cedar and sandalwood, underpinned by fir resin and oakmoss, delivers a clean, woody finish tempered by a soft musk. It's fresh, woody, and distinctly intriguing.
