Louis Cardin La Viola Homme is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2016. La Viola Homme opens with Grapefruit, Mint, and Tangerine, settles into a heart of Sea Water and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Amber and Patchouli. Louis Cardin's La Viola Homme carries an Acquired verdict, a citrus-led wear.

A clean, fruity marine that punches above its weight. It's a fresh, uplifting blast perfect for summer, albeit with a softer, rather unisex jasmine touch that makes it surprisingly gentle. Definitely a crowd-pleaser.

About

Imagine a cool sea breeze carrying the zesty burst of grapefruit and tangerine, with a refreshing whisper of mint. As it settles, a clean, aquatic jasmine emerges, lending an unexpectedly soft, almost sweet floral heart that sits beautifully on the skin. The base gently grounds it with subtle patchouli and warm amber, preventing it from floating away entirely while maintaining its fresh, airy feel.
