What do reviewers say about L'Homme and Valentin?
Built for the man who's already in the room. The citrus opens with immediate energy, but it's the patchouli-tonka drydown that earns the reputation. Moderate projection, quietly confident.L'Homme
There's a gentlemanly charm to Valentin, sweet without being soft, woody without being heavy. The powder in the drydown is the tell. It doesn't announce itself.Valentin
Good to know
