    After a few hours of application, I can say that it surprised me how complex and balanced it is. From reviews, I expect to meet a monster perfume capable of burning my nostrils with the strong smell of lemon, but this ingredient makes her presence felt only in the first few minutes and in a usual dose.
    The architecture of the middle notes is complex, as it once was in fragrances of relevant brands.
    Drydown is dominated by oakmoss and I have to notice the lack of imagination regarding the masculine perfumes, the lack that is manifested even today. Oakmoss is mixed with other ingredients, so the result brings with the smell of man’s sweat, but in an artistic manner. It resembles with YSL Jazz.
    Both projection and longevity is medium, that’s OK for this type of perfume.
    I can say that YSL Pour Homme is a bit too much anchored in the era in which it was created to be able to start passions today, but it must be tried by all those passionate about olfactory art.
    Fragrance 7/10

    Blind bought due to Amalfi lemon and citrus notes. I love lemon and citrus but this stuff stinks. Do not blind buy.

    This is a review of the current La Collection formulation which is available now to purchase.
    On first application I get a searing piercing lemon citrus accord that is underpinned by mint. And oh boy I was not ready for it’s power, it could sear the hairs off your chest. lol You know that bracing effect when you splash freezing cold water over your face or add aftershave to your skin. Well this really awakens the senses like you have been slapped around the chops. This is followed by neroli and petagrain which tries to soften the blow but fails.
    The mint adds a menthol effect to the concentrated lemon citrus which you can feel on your skin and around you. Now usually most modern scents the top notes last for about ten minutes or so but this keeps going for about forty minutes before you get to the midnotes. This opening certainly separates the men from the boys, I do like it as I’ve never experienced it’s like. Quite brutal if your not ready for it, I almost thought 3 sprays was too much.
    Now in the midnotes everything mellows and it’s smells like pure barbershop. I got a flashback memory of when my Grandfather took me to a old barbershop in the late seventies for a haircut, that was the smell. You get a lemon herbal neroli shaving cream with woods which is underpinned by that cool mint effect. I’ve smelled this accord before in a lot of scents from Givenchy to Chanel but here it has a lot of depth which is what impresses me. When you analyze what you are smelling there is a lot going on. I can pick up Patchouli, woods, thyme and other notes.
    I don’t really get the dirty notes, well maybe a hint here and there. Maybe YSL have cleaned it up in this formulation or it needs your body chemistry to heat up to come out, I don’t know.
    All in all I like it and where as the shaving cream accord in Rive Gauche is dark and broody, here it’s bright and cool. Thumbs up, what a ride.

    As a guy happy to leave the dna of designers concoctions, Penhaligon is a good launching point. Whatever the vague marketing of a masterpiece, this is nuclear. Loving oldies like YSL pour homme but clearly reading the difference, congrats, Penhaligon’s for aceing this genre. Clear, clean, present and past. Adoration from IMHO. XO

    As someone who is really not found of what L’Oreal has done with YSL’s brand, They actually did a great job on this reformulation.
    I own the very old vintage YSL Pour Homme, as well as a bottle from 2003 and this reformulation smells a lot like both of them. The main difference is that it’s less dirty and more summer safe where as it would be hard to wear the vintage Pour Homme in the summer, so this one is more versatile. IMO it’s easier to wear and closer to Haute Concentration which I prefer.
    All in all take it or leave it, in all honesty I prefer this to the vintage…..

    Big turnaround on this fragrance i last tried this in the summer and absolutely hated hit thought what a waste of money. However in the colder months honestly it’s beautiful lemony fresh aromatic and very long lasting 2 sprays and your good to go usually I’m a heavy sprayer but with this you only need 2 to 3 max.

    The lemon is very prominent surprisingly long lasting for a top note. Then there is a barber shoppy middle of oak moss/powder. I am not nuts about it (sorry, the lemon is such that I feel like I smell like men’s room floor cleaner), but the descriptions are right on.

    Yesterday I was wearing YSL PH, and eventually I ended up in a bar, drinking an Old Fashioned cocktail.
    And they formed a perfect harmony. The dirty vibe of patchouli and moss plus a bit of citrus… and the dirty vibe of bourbon and Angostura plus a bit of orange zest.
    I wouldn’t call YSL PH the “Old Fashioned in form of perfume”, but they definitely have something in common.
    Both longevity and sillage are excellent. 1 to 2 sprays, no more.

    Starts like another citrus fragrance, but the oakmoss in the middle and patchouli in the base makes it dirty and special in a best possible, french way. It has some similarities with another classic, original Chanel Pour Monsieur, but YSLPH is dirtier, cause there’s more patchouli than oakmoss. Good longevity and silage.
    I don’t know, will I chase the original old bottle, cause there’s a small possibility that it isn’t changed through time. And this Collection version is really good. Recommended.

    Best barbershop fragrance out there..
    Perfect for signature as well..very old charming days..

    YSL pour homme has a great bitter-green warmth and a persistent citrus decadence. Sounds a bit oxymoronic but it’s actually a desired effect. It’s a chypre with a wink.
    Not as good as Chanel’s or Givenchy’s Monseiurs, but still excellent.

    I love YSL fragrances the vintage M7 is my absolute favourite. The dry down of pour homme is honestly headache inducing terrible awful nasty drydown.please try before you buy. To me it literally STINKS.

    Extremely close to the original, however, not identical. I say this because it just doesn’t have the same depth. It might not be totally apparent at first, but if you’ve worn the original enough, it’s noticeable straight away. It feels like the basenotes have been substituted with a 2 dimensional rendition of a 3 dimensional object. It’s like comparing coke to coke zero. I imagine this is due to the restriction on ingredients able to be used. To be honest, if I were to run out of the original, which is unlikely given it’s strength and the fact I have close to two full bottles worth, and I had to replace it, then this would do. However, given its cost and how cheap the original can still be had (which still leaves a lot of room for the ‘discontinuation inflation’) I don’t think i’ll ever be faced with this situation.

    Definitely reminds me of Eau Sauvage by Dior. Smells nice but really old, I mean mature. Longevity and sillage are moderate.

    Oh man! This is a powerful citrus, fizzy in the beginning. Moss appears then doing a remake of the classic. The drydown is balanced. Reminds the YSL good times!

    Smell is very strong from single application. wanted to keep paper-blot to test mid and base tones. 20 minutes past had to throw it away from car window as it was giving me headache. Sharp mossy, no for me. very expensive as well.

    In all honestly, I couldn’t tell this apart from the original, so the fragrance itself definitely gets a thumbs up.
    The problem lies in the price. This is far more expensive for no apparent reason other than it being a collector’s edition.
    If you can find the original, grab it.

    This indeed reminds eau sauvage. The perfume starts almost the same but in a while, you get the feeling of a more animalic/herbal smell. Will check and revert with regards to the longevity etc.
    The dry down brings to mind egoiste platinum, maybe there is some geranium in this.
    UPDATE:
    for a citrus smell more or less, the duration is very good…I get more than 5-6 hours and is enough for this type of scent. I like the way it develops from deeply citrucy to herbal/animalic/dirty type that is not offending, indeed nice citrus fragrance.
    not necessarily for summer as i see it to suit better in winter/autumn. Civet type smell and summer do not mix.
    Maybe the mossy dry down gives this animalic type smell…somehow old fashion but finally i consider Eau Sauvage much much better and wearable today.
    Too too mossy for a young guy…

    Is it me or is one of the perfume’s note is near “fecal” ?

    If you have Gucci by Gucci, 1 Million, Channel Bleu, YSL La Nuit, CH 212VIP, and you want to smell a bit different in a vintage classic way, with awe and splendour, then this is a classic masculine fragrance which will be different in one of the nicest ways possible..
    Or you could smell like the rest of the crowd!!

    Believe it or not, IMO, the most successful reintroduction among the YSL classic masulines is Pour Homme which is still made of sparkling citrusy notes on top and a strong old-fashioned mossy middle phase that immediately brings to mind of the splendors of YSL during those years. I don’t have a vintage Pour Homme to make a comparison but, from what I remember, it used to have a strong lavander presence which is now completely missing. The current version has also a slightly different base which seats somewhere between vintage Equipage and Eau D’Hermes but it’s still darn good.
