L'Homme

His innovative style surprised, even shocked, but his collections were adored around the world, and success followed swiftly. Gianni Versace put his talent to work across many fields, such as bags, eyewear, cosmetics and perfumery. His fate was unfortunately tragic, since Gianni died in 1997, murdered outside his home in Miami. The company was taken over by his sister Donatella. In 1986, the house presented “Versace L’Homme,” a concentrate of virility.

Versace L’Homme, an unmatched Italian sensuality

The 1980s marked a real turning point in the world of masculine perfumery. Previously, men mostly wore fragrance in the form of Eau de Cologne, valued for their natural freshness. With the emancipation of masculine perfumery, fragrances of character began to appear, very masculine, in contrast to eaux de Cologne. “Versace L’Homme” followed this recent trend and revealed an ultra-virile fragrance. “Versace L’Homme” proved to be the new seduction asset for men, who had come to understand that perfumery was now their ally. The Versace man is elegant, self-assured, and seduces through his natural charisma. He is also a man of character, who knows what he wants. At once sophisticated and original, “Versace L’Homme” stands today as a timeless masculine fragrance.

The ultra-masculine notes of Versace L'Homme

Versace L’Homme defines itself as a warm, woody fragrance. It belongs to the “citrus aromatic woody” olfactory family. “Versace L’Homme” opens with the fresh notes of lemon and petitgrain paired with the aromatic note of basil. Chili pepper brings its full charisma and virile strength here. Then, the heart of “Versace L’Homme” proves surprising for how warm and sensual it is. It is composed of sandalwood, cedarwood, patchouli and cinnamon. The base is elegant and enveloping thanks to vanilla, amber, oakmoss and labdanum cistus. As for the bottle, it is sober and clean-lined. Its black spray cap contrasts with the transparency of the glass.

As masculine perfumery was taking flight, the house presented “Versace L’Homme.” An essence of character for men confident in their power of seduction. Its composition offers a pairing of masculine ingredients, lending the whole a fine virility. Because “Versace L’Homme” embodies Italian sensuality par excellence, its fragrance is today inscribed in a profound timelessness.
