If you’re missing the beloved Dior Homme Sport 2012, try layering this in equal parts with Dior Homme Cologne or Dior Homme Sport 2017. You’re welcome in advance.

I get Iris, lavender and cocoa from Futura. The listed note is coffee but smells like bittersweet cocoa to me instead. I usually don’t like these types of gourmandish scents but I like this one. Longevity is good, about 6-8 hours.
Bottle is quality, especially for an Armaf. The heavy cap snaps on securely. Oddly though, when it came in the mail I opened my sealed box to discover greasy smudges and fingerprints all over the bottle. Whatever it was I had to use rubbing alcohol to get off. Other than that I’m impressed with Futura.

Blind bought this one. Armaf has done a great job here. Given its price, the scent does not smell cheap at all. It is a perfect blend between smokey woody and chocolate note. Great for winters.

DH on a budget! Very nice! I’ll have two please!

From Futura La Homme I get:
-Dior Homme Eau
-Complements
-6 hr projection
-10 hr longevity
-Tiny alcohol at opening (5 min) but who the hell cares?

It’s pretty darn nice. In the vein of dhi minus the intensity which actually gives it points for versatility. In the opening I get a blueberry/licorice combo playing in with the iris then after about 30 minutes there’s that addictive waxy lipsticky goodness. It’s linear from there which is fine by me. It’s basically like a super versatile dhi. I’m very pleased to have picked this one up. As others have said this is performing more to me as an edt than edp but at the price point (I paid 21 shipped) that is more of an observation than a complaint.

Mixture of Dior Homme Intense and V Ummo Intense. Wearing it from almost a month now and can confirm it can last around 4 hours in total and a skin scent after 1 hour.

Please, don’t blind buy this one. Don’t get any iris, vetiver or leather. Resembles a bit of Benetton blue for men which isn’t a mass beloved scent. It has a strong synthetic note. Even if you can get it for good price I would recommend to try it first.

Holy crap is this stuff STRONG!
I know not of the original colognes that have inspired this wonder.
GREAT blind buy!! Nicely blended !! Quality!!
Abellenia – :
Got my bottle today.
This thing is worthy of a hype. Period. Its a perfect mix of Dior Homme and Valentino Uomo Intense. The lovely lipstick vibe is right there. Projects nicely.
It is a perfect solution to save your DH/DHI for more special events. If you are a true lover of DHI like me, this would be your daily workhorse.
Grab a bottle before its hard to find like CDNIM

This one is very very close also to Lanvin Arpege pour homme good stuff but Lanvin Arpege pour homme has better performance.
reks00 – :
This is a lovely iris and lavender star. To me it smells more similar to valentino uomo then dior homme.
It starts of with strong but pleasingly sweet iris and later comes the lavender which stay till the end with a mix of coffee, oakmoss & homey but Iris is clearly a winner here and the best part is, it costs only $18 and lasts on your skin for more then 8+ hours with good projection.
кармен – :
Lovely fragrance.
By the way, Armaf has another fragrance that smells the same so if you can’t find Future la homme you can go for this one instead : Armaf Skin Couture Metallica.
xarabatos – :
It Begins with a wierd PAINT like vibe on top , but then after a few minutes later it settles into a sweet powdery drydown.
sweet ,powdery iris ,chocolaty
smells good.

Armaf Futura la Homme is one of my first three Armaf fragrances that I got decants of. I got it along with men Armaf Club de Nuit Intense men and Tag-Him Prestige.
Armaf Future la Homme is a nice Dior Homme smell alike. It is somewhere between DH, Valentino Uomo and Dior Homme Intense/Valentino Uomo Intense. I only have a decant of it and it is not as talked about as other clones like Zara 9.0, Zara for Him, Zara for Him Gold (I’m going off other accounts for these) or even Halloween Man Shot (I own this so I can use my own account.) It should though. It is an EDP but I think it leans more DH than DHI, though that is a thin line to walk.
It isn’t so close to Valentino Uomo as another poster commented, due to no hazelnut and the iris in Futura la Homme. On Uomo, I don’t notice any iris note or accord at all. Here, I do. It isn’t an iris bomb like Valentino Uomo Intense or Dior Homme Eau are, but there is a distinct enough iris note. That said, it is in the same family of a meterosexual gourmand leather scent.
I notice that it lasts about 8 hours. It projects really good too for about two hours. I think part of this is it being an EDP rather than an EDT. Like most Dior Homme clones, this is too much for summer days but could work on summer nights. It is pretty good to use in most situations especially dates. The price makes it more apporriate for casual situations like it does for Halloween Man Shot too.
I only have a decant of it but I can easily say it is one you would want to get a decant of if not a full bottle, especially if you don’t have the option of going to a Zara. This performs better than Halloween Man Shot to me. This so far is my favorite from Armaf. Even Club de Nuit Intense Men isn’t that for me. I rate this a 8.8. Once I either have extra money and/or I clear out my existing inventory, I must get this one.

Coffee and vetiver with iris as the star. Wearable anytime except Summer. Unless you wear it on a night that is not too humid. This is not exactly a clone. What it is…is a GOOD DEAL. Nice performance and not synthetic. One of armaf’s best releases. As of this date, it is in their top 10 must have.

I have it. Lord help me, I don’t know WHY I have it. I don’t like Uomo (have not smelled ‘intense’). I want to, I keep trying, but – I just don’t like it.
This Futura smells 90% like Valentino’s Uomo to me. It LASTS. terrific bang for your buck. the only way I think you’d tell them apart is if you’re an expert, and if you actually had one on each wrist.
Weird bottle, yet another cheap rhinestone. The lid is so heavy I’m sure you could fire it out of a cannon.
If you love Uomo and cannot afford it – here you go – Merry Christmas.
rde038InsuffBooni – :
Yep. It REALLY is that good.
First off, the cap is super heavy metal and can easily kill someone if thrown at the right velocity. Funny how that’s always the first thing I think of…
…ahhhh, anyway, right out of the package you can smell the sweet iris and it’s just beautiful. Both my mom and gf dislike Zara 9.0 (“it smells like a grandma”), but they really enjoy this one. Think of DH without the chalky cacao, a stronger iris, and topped with that weird sugary sweetness you get with Zara’s Tone Indeterminee, which is incidentally one of my favourites.
In fact, just yesterday I layered Futura with Indeterminee and I was in heaven. HOLY Cow. Mind, everything just seemed holy at that point. The result was a sweet, powdery iris-praline-chocolate scent with BEAST MODE performance. I’m talkin’ AWESOME.
Anyway, the performance of Futura itself is just fantastic; and best of all, it’s totally unisex. Yep. So is indeterminee. That’s why they just go so well together. If you like Bourbon by Bath and Body Works, you’ll probably go ape sh** for this one. Just don’t go ape and start throwing sh**. That’s just crazy.
Scent – 9/10
Longevity – 9.5/10
Projection – 9/10
Overall – 9/10 – What, no Hype???

Steal of a deal! This isn’t exactly Dior Homme and it’s not exactly Valentino Uomo either. ARMAF Futura is really a little of both. Decent longevity of about 5 hours with a projection of arms length for close to 3 hours. Great signature/work/day fragrance. I see no need to go out and dump $50 -$70 on one of the name brands when this is truly on par for $20 – $25. IMO it’s about time this house saves us some real cash and does a Sauvage clone! Thanks for another gem Sterling!
