Lalique Lalique Pour Homme is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1997, created by Maurice Roucel. Lalique Pour Homme opens with Pomelo, Bergamot, Grapefruit, and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Cedar, Jasmine, Iris, and Lily of the Valley, and dries down to a base of Amber, Sandalwood, Patchouli, and Oakmoss. Lalique's Lalique Pour Homme carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one's a proper grown-up scent, divisive as it might be. Some call it a dated 'grandpa' fragrance, others hail it as a timeless, aristocratic masterpiece. Either way, it's packing a serious punch from a bygone era, perfect for the man who knows what he wants.

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.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Formal
Also Works:
Date

Its mature, gentlemanly profile and strong projection make it ideal for formal settings and the office, where it conveys authority and class. It's too formal and potent for casual wear or sport, though some find it suitable for dates for its refined charm.

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.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Oakmoss Evernia prunastri extract from Oakmoss

Other declarable allergens

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Lavender Lavandula Hybrida Oil from Lavender
  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

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

Lalique Pour Homme opens with a vibrant, zesty burst of citrus and herbal rosemary, quickly settling into a refined, powdery heart of iris and delicate lily of the valley. As it dries, a rich, woody foundation of sandalwood and oakmoss emerges, underscored by a subtle amber warmth. It's a complex, evolving scent that balances fresh aromatics with a deep, sophisticated wooded character.
