Rue Broca Luminus Pour Homme is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2025. Luminus Pour Homme opens with Cinnamon, Nutmeg, and Blackcurrant, settles into a heart of Grapefruit, Lavender, and Cardamom, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, Patchouli, and Oakmoss. Rue Broca's Luminus Pour Homme carries a Favourite verdict, a spicy-led wear.

This budget-friendly clone of Sauvage Elixir is a surprisingly solid choice for the price. While it might smell a bit synthetic in the opening, its strong, pleasant profile makes it a versatile everyday option. If you're after something cheap and cheerful that mostly gets the job done, look no further.

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

Luminus Pour Homme kicks off with a warm, spicy blend of cinnamon and nutmeg, lifted by a surprising pop of blackcurrant. The heart then introduces a fresh aromatic core with zesty grapefruit, clean lavender, and the distinctive spice of cardamom. It settles into a woody, earthy base of patchouli, amber, musk, and a subtle touch of oakmoss, giving it depth and lasting power.
