    What do reviewers say about Only For Him and L'Instant de Guerlain pour Homme EDT?

    There's a dryness here that catches people off guard. The powder doesn't announce itself, it builds slowly, mixing with jasmine and cedar until you're not sure if you're smelling cologne or skin.Only For Him
    Star anise is not a shy note. It opens this fragrance like a statement, and if black pepper follows, you know this is not playing it safe. Overall effect is warm and atmospheric.L'Instant de Guerlain pour Homme EDT
