Fragrance World John Gustav Homme Le Parfum is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2022. John Gustav Homme Le Parfum opens with Bergamot, Lavender, Cardamom, and Mint, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, Iris, Cinnamon, and Cumin, and dries down to a base of Amber, Cedar, Sandalwood, and Vanilla. Fragrance World's John Gustav Homme Le Parfum carries a Favourite verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This one sparks debate. Some call it a sweet, spicy vanilla dream, a softer Dior Homme Intense, while others dismiss it as a limp, synthetic disappointment. Don't expect a Le Male clone, but do expect a fragrance with a split identity.

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.

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

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

Opens with an aromatic punch of lavender and mint, softened by a hint of spicy cardamom and fresh bergamot. The heart introduces a subtle iris and orange blossom, warmed by cumin and cinnamon's embrace. The base settles into a rich, creamy vanilla, supported by warm amber, smooth sandalwood, and a touch of tonka bean, leaving a powdery, sweet trail.
