To fully appreciate this great frangrance get the vintage bottles and skip the actual version which is a pale representation.
xoro888888 – :
I liked it. Smells masculine and well put together, but some women around me hated it.
xoxa – :
Loewe is complete garbage now. They killed their masterpiece Esencia and released other garbage perfumes recently. They dont have a single good perfume now nothing 0 nil. To hell with this company
sundukof71 – :
What once contained oakmoss now contains zero moss. Not even treemoss. What is happening in this world we live in? We’re not allowed to choose to smell oakmoss in this day and age? How many more ingredients can we make illegal? It appears we are devolving instead of evolving. Are we not men? We are devo,
M.D.W. – :
I am back to re-review this one after my initial shock and disappointment over the reformulation.
The old Esencia is dead, it’s true.
However, my impression of this replacement has changed. Initially, I perceived it as dark and dull (compared with the original, as another reviewer has said).
It is much darker, and it isn’t uplifting in the same way the original was. The beautiful oakmoss is gone. However, the replacement is a good fragrance in its own right.
Recently I tried the original formulation of Eau de Rochas pour homme, which many prefer due to the stronger oakmoss. My feelings on that were mixed, as they now are for Esencia. I’m now starting to think that the oakmoss smells dated, and the reformulations of both of these fragrances actually smell like modernized compositions in a way which is contemporary and more its own statement – not tied to a dated oakmoss reference.
The new Esencia has garnered many compliments so far and is when I’ve presented it to people, the reactions have been unaminously very positive. So it is still a very appealing, deep, complex, sophisticated fragrance. But now it is much darker.
I miss the sparkling creaminess of the original, but the new Esencia is still a worthy fragrance.

This week I visited Sephora and tested the last version of this fragrance, with the purpose of verify how much the last reformulations afected the precious juice that Esencia Loewe was.
I understand that make a fragrance that initially had has more than 200 substances with the new IFRA rules is extremely difficult, but I was in shock when I smelled it. I can’t get the words to describe the mutilation that left the last reformulation due to IFRA new restrictions.
The fragrance now is dull, extremely weak and have no resemblance with the original fragrance. It’s another thing. I had the impression that what I was smelling was a fake.
I have no idea why Loewe still continues making and selling something that is so different. They must simply discontinue it and let it rest in peace.
zca077bedyWelty – :
Agreed. I bought a new bottle and YUCK!!
Sharp, nasty, and makes my tongue burn. Just horrible.
The creamy complexity is completely gone. No oakmoss. Just castrated.
I would like my money back for this murder of a masterpiece.
Please understand. This is not a reformulation where the longevity and sillage suffer while it still smells good.
This reformulation has beastly sillage and longevity, yet simply smells really bad.
Fedor68 – :
Killed by reformulation, genuinely. RIP Esencia.
Deaclecrojepe4 – :
Just bought a 150ml bottle after finishing (and loving) a 5ml sample.
What a disappointment – the bottle is nothing like it.
The bottle is legit from a large retailer, but the scent is very different.
The green heart is almost absent. What is going on Loewe?
I had one spray left from my sample, sitting now with a spray on each arm. One has great projection – excellent bright green notes and very complex.
The other (the 150ml bottle) is dull, no green character, no projection, all basenotes and pepper. How disappointing!
каротонкас – :
Loewe Esencia PH; açılışı oldukça keskin bir deri ile oldu. Açılışı yeşil ağaçsı notalar da eklenince açıkçası hiç beğenmedim. Ancak 10 dakika sonra koku aromatik bir fujer tarzına dönüyor. Lavanta, adaçayı, meşeyosunu, yeşil aldehitler, çok az ölmezotuna hafif bir sandal ağacı dokunuşu ve açılıştaki ağaçsı notalar ile tatlılaşan bir koku. Benim tarzım olmamakla birlikte denenmesi gereken bir kokuymuş. Kaliteli bir işe imza atılmış.
mgruzin – :
Really love this fragrance. I found out about it by successively selecting my favourite notes on the ‘Perfumes’ tab here, until only one fragrance remained.
I don’t think I’ve worn another fragrance so much and I own about 170-180 samples and bottles.
It has elements which remind me of a classic chypre, others which remind me of a classic fougere like Azzaro pour Homme, but its main angle is an elegant, complex
and high-quality green scent.
Performance is outstanding. The dry-down is gorgeous, probably my favourite.
This is very masculine in a similar vein to Azzaro PH but it’s more refined, less rugged. It’s masculinity comes from the fresh green notes, herbs, berries and woods, rather than musky animalic notes, so you can actually wear a fair amount of it and take advantage of its ‘powerhouse’ nature without feeling that you’re cloying the air around you with crotch notes or schmooze vapour.
The green notes – mostly pines and oakmoss – give way to subtle florals, tarragon, berries. Wonderful. I will be wearing this a lot.
bratstvostali – :
Just got a tester spray and man, this could be sooooo good if it wasn’t for the rose…
Rose, I try to ignore it, but I couldn’t. This scent is so perfect, but the rose note brings it all down. It’s like a butterfly on a horse’s d*ck, sh*t on the fresh snow, you name it. It is very irrelevant. Why would you put rose into the mixture, for what is something very close to perfection ?
Subtract the rose, and this takes you to depths of a pine forest, where the soil is a bit moisty and everything is green. The weather is cold and the high oxygen/cold combination makes your nose burn.
I didn’t get most of the notes above, but I definetely get pine, levander, cedar, fir, rose and vetiver. For others maybe my nose is not trained.
It lasts for a good 4 hours for only 2 sprays on my skin. I did not wear it for a full day yet.
Overall, it’s very good but the rose makes it a no-buy for me.
SergeuS – :
This is a mans fragrance that is pure bliss. It stands the test of time and will be around forever. This fragrance has a hard cult following. It is very versatile and is hard to clone as it has many, many ingredients that are all blended to perfection. For the first couple of hours is gives great projection and then gets closer to the skin and stays for another 3 hours. Great for any occasion at any season of the year. Very versatile. I do wish that it lasted a bit longer, but I do not mind re applying as it is just brilliant. You will get compliments galore with this one.
yji020speagoessenda – :
I hate Polo. I hate many of the notes listed for this. I flipping love this juice. I have been putting off buying Encre Noir when the weather got cold. I will have this instead. It invigorates me. I feel great when this is on my skin!
EDIT– Reformulation is CRAP!!!!
Sergey74 – :
This one you need to take your time with at first sniff i thought to myself oh no!!! a Pine Sol floor cleaner clone and eventually it becomes a very manly and great scent.

Absolutely my preferred fragrance! The smell it’s like nothing else: pine forest, mountain, rain, field of flowers,all together! After an hour smells like you are in heaven! It’s got an 8+ hours longevity and a very good projection and sillage! But not everyone it’s gonna like it, certainly, not my wife…
Romario79 – :
Very masculine and sexy.
It’s the scent my wife prefers on me, together with BOSS Number ONE and YSL Nuit Homme Perfume…
The notes and complexity is tottaly diferent but this frag remembers me Narciso Rodrigues for Him, although both are Aromatic Fougéres.
Pure class. A complex perfume with all notes and stages very well mastered.
One of my all time favorites all over the year / day and night fragrance. Well… not really for the Summer.
My rating: 9.0/10.0
tohanv – :
I got a test vial of this, applied liberally to one wrist and I was prepared to chalk it up as a “no” based on the tar-smoke-green opening which I didn’t like too much, there was a bitterness and acidity that I don’t experience in other scents that use the sweeter side of smoky aroma (as with those that invoke incense).
But as it started to dry down I was amazed at what I was experiencing – it went from “meh” to “WOW” within ten minutes. The herbal weight of the middle notes really started to register just as some of the sweeter notes begin to negate the opening acidity. by the time it fully dries down it becomes a rich, patchouli-heavy resinous evergreen slab of deep green delights.
There are a lot of pine scents – this just isn’t one of them. It does have some fresh pine resin in there, but it’s just a supporting actor in this case. There is a deep earthy richness to and enough floral sweetness to keep it from just being “Encre-Noir-Pine”. This one is captivating and ever-evolving on the skin (at least it works that way on me).
mistika – :
Very masculine fragrance for a man. Wouldn’t want my wife smelling like this (too manly) and she would never wear it anyway… too feminine and she prefers her more lady-like scents. Gentlemen, check out this juice… perfect for a cold Winter or a rainy day in the early spring. Very green, pine, and sort of old school. Kind of reminds me of Polo Green without the tar note. It’s also long lasting with excellent sillage and projection. Every time I wear I get compliments from both men and women. The men want to buy it for themselves, and the ladies want it for their husband, Pure class. One of my all time favorite winter fragrances. 9/10

I am actually wearing it and I don’t care if it’s ‘Pour Homme’ I love it.. Super sexy ❤️
ffy094intitytek – :
I don’t have a signature fragrance but I’ve put this as my signature because it’s my favorite over everything I have experienced till now.
It has it all for me. Longevity, sillage, and for me the perfect smell. I’m a nature loving person and this gives you the feeling of walking in a pine forest after some rain with your leather jacket on whilst you’re eating some berries after you’ve taken a shower with a nice soap. I also believe it can be worn any time of the year because it is fresh too.
This is 10/10 for me.
Camyil – :
I cant stand this fragrance. Very green, balmy, talcumy and fougere. I imagine this smell like in the deep forest. Last forever on my skin. Very ‘niche’ fragrance. The packaging and bottle really portray the juice inside. Very deep emerald green. Worth to try it

Fragranza molto maschile, cupa ma fresca, dominata da aromi intensi e franchi di pino e resina di conifere. Quasi una sorta di versione più fine (nel senso di maggior qualità) del Pino Silvestre.
Molto particolare. Consiglio di provarla prima di acquistarla.
Voto personale: 7.5/10
CLAFTTT – :
Deep green pine and cedar. Hot desert pines, not cool mountain trees. Dusty hot air and spices. Sage, leather and herbal church incense on abed of mosses and dry vetiver. Complex and classic. In fact, my favorite “classic” scent. Sort of a cousin of the much cooler feeling Polo Green, or even a green desert forest cousin to the more austere Terre d’ Hermes, if you use some imagination. Also connected via herbal pine notes to Drakkar, Varvatos Vintage and Horizon. To me, this is king of that class of scents.
ereraFenincor – :
A breeze of dark green. Reminds me of Z14 or Italian Cypress but in a very light and airy form. Perfect for just a suggestion of fragrance. Very fresh, outdoorsy, and actually quite medicinal due to the evergreens.
nemotsart – :
That is right, I also agree that its the best green fragrance in the market..
fomka – :

pinch – :
My bottle of Esencia Loewe is nearly full simply because it’s not my vibe. This is no comment on the quality of the fragrance; it’s an interesting scent which evolves in an equally interesting manner.
Esencia Loewe is marketed as having 200 notes! When I originally got it I was expecting a right dog’s dinner of an in-your-face, 80s, retro scent. Something like Drakkar Noir on crack. Turns out it’s not like that at all. It is very 1980s but in a much more polite and reserved manner.
The opening has a touch of the loo cleaner/air freshener combo about it. But after a couple of minutes it settles down and the pine and fir notes become history.
The next phase is lively with many different notes rising and falling. But, for me, the main players are bergamot, petitgrain, neroli and jasmine underpinned by iris and rose.
The final phase keeps the citrus and white flower top notes but switches out the iris and rose for the more resinous notes: amber, styrax, galbanaum and a touch of musk and vetiver.
This fragrance does not strike me as being as fresh and green as other reviewers seem to find it. I get more of an orange, peachy, pink colour from it.
I think it would suit a small man who wants to give the impression of being amiable, friendly and non-threatening.
Ozi – :
Several years ago I had the chance to buy this fragrance. It took me several tries and I finally found this juice.
When I sprayed it on my skin, I pick up a real attractive deep/spicy green aroma from the pine needles and fir. There’s a very herbal blend from oakmoss and woodsy vib making this juice more of masculine aroma. A small note…I love the aroma of leather, I couldn’t pick up a smig of leather? Maybe it’s my nose meter??
Longevity and Silage is excellent lasting about 6-8hrs.
Finally,
This fragrance is perfect…real attractive green /spicy blend. A very classy all yr round, personally I prefer this juice during the cooler months…AMAZING fragrance …9/10

vvvitas – :
Unavailable in my country, I asked to a friend to buy me one when she went to Spain… I blind-bought it just by the notes.
It was certainly not a mistake. What a great marvel O_O…. So awesome, so classy, sweet and deep, versatile and shafting.
At first, it’s very sweet, like a super special soap (like Image by Cerruti) and then, a deep obscure woody scent comes. And here’s the true gem. Like Encre Noire, but not as dark and powerful (and as i’m a Encre Noire lover…) . Very gentle, classy, deep, woody but so sweet. If you search a woody thing without all that classical sharpness which belongs to this type of perfumes, go for it. They managed to success to create a very fresh woody, almost aromatic, and just for it, this is a marvelous perfume.
My new favorite one, Viva España !

vasilius – :
This is a very classy and elegant scent. Just bought a bottle blind, and the scent isn’t as strong that I though it would be. I will not concider it as a “powerhouse” like many do. It’s more fresh and aromatic in a very classy way in my opinion. Starts quite strong and seems unbalanced, but the magic comes very soon. After 10-15 minutes the scent smells very elegant, and lovely of fresh vetiver, dry pine and oak moss. Can be used for all seasons. Perfect for fuzzy gentlemen. Longevity is very good, and sillage is above average. If you are fan of classic colognes like Guerlain Vetiver, Paco Rabanne pour homme, Tsar, Jazz and Pasha I will highly recommend this elegant scent. The bottle is also a sight for sore eyes 😉
грубиян – :
Loewe have for a long time impressed me with solid quality and reasonable prices. They are really good on aromatic flavors, and this is their best.
Technically Esencia is a chypre. Of chypres you have leathery (Polo), woody (Yatagan), fruity (Mitsouko), fresh (Pour Monsiur), citrus (Eau Sauvage) and so on. Then there is the fougeres, and there you have amongst others the aromatic genre (Loewe pour homme). The spicy ones are usually orientals (with bases of vanilla, amber, incense…).
But Esencia is neither of those. It is an aromatic chypre! To me it has almost nothing in common with Polo or Yatagan, but much more with aromatics.
What Loewe did here was to take the concept of Loewe pour homme, strengthen and improve the aromatics and change the base to more chypre (oakmoss and tremoss) and less fougere.
The result is Loewe-style spanish aromas (wide, juicy, medium strong but lots of flavors), with a refreshening top and a GREAT drydown.
Really good, one of the best from that era, and still highly wearable.
9/10
valefodor – :
Well, I have to say I’m slightly staggered. I got a super cheap sample of this on sale & wasn’t too sure about it at first wear. It starts off powerful & green with some petitgrain, citrus, juniper and lavender. It then rolls out a beautiful artemisia, which I really love, along with a big dose of pine and fir as well as some floral notes. On dry down there’s a leather to be reckoned with along with hints of musk, moss and sandalwood. It projects like crazy & leaves a nice, polite trail. It also lasts right through to the next day!
What’s not to like then really? I guess I was just a tad uncertain as it is pretty old school, but that’s not such a bad thing in this case, as it’s still unlike anything else I’ve come across before really. I’m also not usually into anything quite this fresh either, but on my second wear I was sold. It really seems to sit nicely with me and is eminently versatile too. The clincher for me came the third time I wore it. My partner virtually never comments on my fragrances, other than to tell me I’m obsessed, but when I walked past her with this on, I heard her say to her sister, “I REALLY love boys when they smell like that!”. She then proceeded to surprise me with a full bottle, something she’s never done. I think it’s fair to say that that’s a definite big two thumbs up from both of us for Loewe Esencia!
XIMERA – :
This is really the winner.
Deep and Dark scent with the haunted and mysterious traces . Masculine and powerful. This is for a man who is strong and unique. Really far away from today’s identical citrus aquatic colognes.
Dry down is really mesmarising and soapy green. Love it.
Roy – :
This is a Slumberhouse type of scent. Deep,dark and mysterious. I still can’t get over it having 30 notes!
It starts off very spicy and piney. Too many notes to mention but it’s definite timeless fragrance. Much deeper than Polo and gentlemen like. A perfect scent for Antonio Banderas in the movie Desperado. It’s ment to be worn on special occasions and probably for guys 40 and up. It’s mature and I don’t think it will appeal to the younger crowd. A little goes a looong way.
Feniks777 – :
After a full wearing, this turns out to be a vetiver scent trimmed with lemon and pine. Very refined, very reminiscent of Givenchy Vetyver. I get no leather and no soap. Which is a good thing. Longevity is on the short side of 6 hours
Кэп – :
I love Green Irish Tweed AND Vintage Polo Green. Though this isn’t spot-on for either, it has notes that should appeal to lovers of both. All the elegance of a Creed frag, with the zest of Polo green. The first blast is a bit off-putting, but two minutes later arrives a drydown that has me practically inhaling my own flesh to get enough! This is top 3 in my rotation now, along with Eau Des Baux and Halstom Man Amber. I have never smelled better 🙂
yurask87 – :
A master class in fougeres, one of which if I see I’m down to half a bottle I panic. Elegant and refined like many Spanish fragrances, on me it has great longevity and sillage. As another review says, a touch of everything, but beautifully put together, the oak moss at the very end is an absolute clincher for me.
fanatmetalla – :
It’s like walking with a time machine into the past. It’s that awful smell that studies used to have, back in the days when people still smoked indoors and rarely opened the windows.
I can imagine that a few people like this kind of a fragrance, but it’s definitely not mine.
famil – :
Smell of cold wintery wet forest. I simply adore this fragrance. A must have for winters in my wardrobe. This fragrance is heavily loaded with oak moss. Other notes I can smell in this fragrance abundantly are leather, lemon, and lavender. This fragrance is a beautiful composition. Although it was introduced in 1988, but still very modern and can easily be pulled off by younger generation. I would definitely consider this as a powerhouse fragrance with good sillage and longevity.
Triliarot – :
This is my absolute favorite fragrance for men. There is just something about it…it’s crisp and yet very alluring, not heavy like Drakkar Noir. I find it has a seductive and charismatic quality that is hard to find in men’s fragrances nowadays. Most of them are either too heavy, too sweet or just smell like a cheap aftershave.
ersh – :
The opening it’s not very good, but after that, with the drydown, get better, a lot better.
It’s a old school smell but i think that is acceptable.
PROS:
– Last a lot and projects well
– Not popular
– A old school with nice drydown.
– Quality fragrance
– Elegant
CONS:
– Someone can think that is grandpa smell
– Can be offensive if over apply
It’s a nice acquisition for a collector or for someone what looking for a good alternative to the formal – old school scents out there.
If it’s your case, try it.
Regards.

Not something I would have considered however its not bad reminds me of Tsar by Van Cleff.
Personally I would have been quite content with another bottle of Acqua di Parma!

burden – :
The higher the unattainable perfection.
A perfume quite complex, but it is readily apparent.
I am delighted with this aroma. I have one.
Can be a perfume simple and complex at the same time, fresh and vibrant at the same time; confidant or expansive at the same time.
With this quality I would not say that this perfume seems to be in the past (1988), but in the future (2088).
Technically is executed in a perfect way.
The Loewe definitely won me and I can say without the slightest doubt that is one of the best perfume brands in the world.
Love Loewe.
Alisan – :
This fragrance is absolutely stunning. I love the smell of fresh pine and fir. It is elegant and can be worn for both day and evening. The drydown is the true masterpiece of this fragrance. I love it and I am glad I bought it.
Pek – :
When the complexity of olfactory notes is combined with simplicity of perfection, the end product can be something as excellent as this Esencia Loewe.
This scent is quite elaborate, representing perfectly all the bravery, personality and charisma of a true Latin man.
In my view, this perfume is great for all men of strong character, regardless of their age.
Some features make this perfume substitute to Loewe 7. Both of which are excellent, memorable, timeless, remarkable and seductive.
Longevity and projection are surreal.
Of all the perfumes perfect, some are more than others and this is certainly one of the most excellent perfume I’ve ever felt.
By having everything to do with my personality and my way of being and living, for sure I’ll get a Esencia Loewe briefly.
I love all products from Loewe. It is the fashion brand that I’m most proud of being born in the Iberian Peninsula.
Congratulations Loewe. Keep up the excellent work.

Loewe Esencia is what the heaven could smell like . So green , so fresh and inspiring . Strong once u spray it , needs twenty minutes to show its best notes . Projection is good , longevity is fine , smell is so classy and unique . U might consider applying this on a paper and come back to it after 24 hours , u will smell the best of it .
boba55 – :
Generally don’t like it, but the base note…a chic base note.
PollyWirsteno – :
This is an incredibly good old school fragrance, smelling like a cross between an 80’s macho scent and a so-called “old lady chypre”. It has that awesome dark green herbal smell reminiscent of Spanish cooking herbs. If you mixed Quorum with Miss Dior, you’d get something really close to Esencia Loewe.
This juice is powerful too, with room-clearing projection and 12-hour longevity. A masterpiece.
MY RATING: 9/10

It’s a mature scent, very very strong. For those that want to be noticed. The dark green color of the bottle is very appropriate, it has a deep green smell with something more substantial, maybe the leather smell. Unfortunatelly my wife doesn’t like this fragrance: it has the best longevity on my skin compared with many other famous fragrances.

I seem to make out more lemon than what other people have noticed and voted on above.
sergatskih – :
A civilized powerhouse. Sounds like an oxymoron? Try and see. Leather, green and herbaceous notes, pine, artemisia and lavender surrounded by a remarkable soapy vibe and laying on the usual musky/mossy base. An extremely elegant chypre. Sort of Yatagan after an haircut.
Great projection, reasonable lasting power.

natahail77 – :
ok, let’s face it, i don’t think all this stuff You’ve noted as fragrance content is really there.
Because if your notes are correct, then Esencia should be the biggest male scent. As it is done in a delicious harmony and finesse.
I get lemon, lavender and spicy greens. Lemon note is quite strong (as it is in Loewe Homme) and somewhere along the way the chypre feel becomes dominant.
Later on sweetness is evoked. And dry-down is all about mossy woods.
Masculine and a bit 80’s, but still very fashionable as the designer’s clothes themselves. ****(*)
