Ted Lapidus Pour Homme is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1978. Pour Homme opens with Bergamot, Lemon, Coriander, and Thyme, settles into a heart of Leather, Vetiver, Patchouli, and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Musk, Oakmoss, Castoreum, and Labdanum. Ted Lapidus's Pour Homme carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one's a proper beast, a true 70s powerhouse that'll sort the men from the boys. It's a love-it-or-hate-it kind of scent, unapologetically masculine and not for the faint-hearted. If you want to make an entrance, this is your weapon.

Also Works:
Formal

This powerful, animalic leather scent is far too strong for office wear, but its bold character makes it an excellent choice for a date, especially in colder weather. It's a bit much for casual daytime, though it could work for an evening out, and its mature sophistication lends itself to formal events where you want to stand out.

About

Ted Lapidus Pour Homme opens with an assertive aldehydic burst, zesty lemon and herbal thyme, quickly revealing a deeply animalic leather heart. Castoreum and frankincense layer on a smoky, rugged intensity, rooted in an earthy oakmoss and musky base. It's a potent, uncompromising statement, evoking a wild, untamed masculinity.
