The first fragrance Procter & Gamble launched for Lacoste, in 2002, Pour Homme is signed by Claude Dir. The house described it as a woody oriental built around rum: bergamot, plum and apple at the top, juniper, cardamom, pink pepper and cinnamon at the heart, rum, sandalwood, vanilla and musk in the base, in a gray glass bottle with square shoulders.

Lacoste classified Pour Homme as a woody oriental built around a dark rum note. Its current list places Italian bergamot, plum and apple at the top; juniper, cardamom, pink pepper and cinnamon make up the heart.

In the base, rum joins sandalwood, a vanilla bean and a modern musk. According to the house, apple and plum enrich the rum, while aromatic juniper balances that richness and adds a masculine freshness.

In 2009, the house went into greater detail. The top added a pink grapefruit to the fruity trio, for a citrus accord the house called energetic; the base paired rum absolute with sandalwood, cedarwood, vanilla, incense and a modern musk.

Masculin.com, the same year, relayed another version in which the base brought together sandalwood, agarbois, vanilla bean and modern musk, with no rum. Grapefruit, cedar, incense and agarbois no longer appear in the list Lacoste communicates today; they are mentioned here without being placed in the tiers.
