Hommage a L'Homme

Lalique · Eau de Toilette (EDT) · 2012

≈ $40 · 100ml · approx. retail

Hommage a L'Homme pairs a peppery violet-leaf opening with warm saffron and agarwood for a spicy, resinous woody composition aimed at a more mature masculine market. It reads as a tribute to classic men's woods reworked with a modern, slightly smoky oud accent.
