Lolita Lempicka Au Masculin is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2000, created by Annick Menardo. Au Masculin opens with Anise, Violet, Licorice, and Ivy, settles into a heart of Sandalwood, Tonka Bean, Almond, and Rum, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Vetiver, Vanilla, and Labdanum. Lolita Lempicka's Au Masculin carries an Acquired verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This early noughties gem is a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. Expect potent licorice and anise, backed by sweet vanilla and boozy warmth. If you appreciate a unique, sweet-spicy signature, you're in for a treat, but it's definitely not for everyone.

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 For:

Also Works:
Casual

Its strong, sweet, and unique profile makes it a standout choice for dates and cooler casual outings, where its sillage can truly shine. The sweetness and potential for strong projection limit its appropriateness for office or formal settings, and it's definitely not one for sport.

About

Au Masculin opens with a bold, aromatic burst of licorice and anise, intertwined with green facets of violet and basil; it’s distinctive, almost medicinal. As it settles, a boozy almond and rum accord emerges, softened by creamy sandalwood and tonka. The dry down is a gourmand dream, with delectable praline and vanilla melding into a subtle vetiver and cedar base, creating a sweet, woody character that lingers beautifully.
