Animale Animale for Men is an Eau de Toilette launched in 1993. Animale for Men opens with Lemon, Neroli, and Freesia, settles into a heart of Lavender, Geranium, and Juniper, and dries down to a base of Leather, Vetiver, and Oakmoss. Animale's Animale for Men carries a Favourite verdict, a green-led wear.

A divisive, nostalgic trip to the 90s. Some find it a green, clean, sporty powerhouse, a compliments magnet, and surprisingly modern. Others reckon it's a dated, synthetic locker-room scent that belongs on a teenager.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

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.

About

Animale for Men opens with a lively burst of lemon and neroli, softened by fresh freesia. The heart unfolds into an aromatic blend of juniper and lavender, with a touch of green geranium. It eventually settles into a masculine base of leather, earthy vetiver, and robust oakmoss, creating a complex scent that straddles fresh vitality and grounded depth.
