Description
In the spring of 2014, the house of Loewe presents new sports editions of its four men’s fragrances: Loewe Pour Homme from 1974, Esencia Loewe pour Homme from 1988, Solo Loewe from 2004 and Loewe 7 from 2010. Four vintage sports wewr taken as the inspiration for these fragrances: canoeing (represented by Javier Hernanz), jai alai (Iñaki Osa), archery (Arturo García) and hockey (Jordi Bargalló). The fragrance are developed by perfumer Emilio Valeros.
Loewe Pour Homme Sport is a fresh and spicy fragrance. The fragrance contains notes of grapefruit, pepper, basil, lavender, Mediterranean sea accord, cedar and musk. Available as 100 and 150 ml Eau de Toilette.

This is a pleasant summer daytime fresh-spicy scent with dominant basil/sea/grapefruit. Lavender is mild. Very refreshing but it’s not a new smell for me. Moderate performance overall.

Very similar to lalique white

The main thing letting this one down is performance…it’s average…which is okay but disappointing because it develops nicely for the first couple of hours, leading you into a false sense of security and believe that it might be quite long lived. Then…bam! It’s gone. Such a shame because this is one of the better ‘sport’ fragrances I’ve tried in recent years. Fresh sharp opening of citrus and aquatic tones, offset with the subtlety herbaceous basil and lavender, then a ton of pepper hits and as the woody base of cedar and musk start to dry down, this is actually quite a well conceived, masculine fragrance and not a million miles from it’s predecessor. Just to mention that this flanker comes out a mere 28 years after the original surely it hasn’t been in the making all that time???? Well as nice as it is it ain’t worth the wait even for Loewe fans. I liked it, had it of lasted I would of added it to my collection to prove a point that sport fragrances can be simple and refined and above all masculine. But it doesn’t so I won’t.

Starts with sharp citrus and a healthy dose of pepper on my skin, soon followed by a dry cedar note that is quite nicely done. After about a half hour, the spiciness is substituted by aquatic accord while the citrus remains present. The watery notes are accompanied in the background by aromatic herbs and the cedarwood. The projection starts moderate and is dropping to skin level within 2 hours. After 5 hours all that remains is a soft aromatic skin scent that doesn’t say much. The overall feel is pleasant, especially the first hours; it’s the kind that will not offend anyone but will not wake any excitement either as it is pretty safe, generic and synthetic mostly in the drydown, the traditional “sport” cologne.
Scent: 6.5/10
Longevity: 7/10
Projection: 4/10

Packaging:
I like the champagne gold color, but the lettering looks like a cheap rip off from the Allure line. I’m also not a fan of the shape itself, it looks a bit weird.
The smell:
When you spray it out of the bottle, you get a really mature vibe (when you smell it close to the skin), it almost smells like a dated version of acqua di gio. I think it’s the pepper or lavender that is responsible for this. When you smell it from a distance it smells really good, very aquatic, it has a ‘cold and dry’ ocean scent to it, almost reminding me of Dsquared Ocean Wet Wood.
I think this is a very nice mature aquatic for the 30yo+ crowd.

Fresh and sporty scent composed of citrus notes at the start (to my nose they smell like mandarin) followed by a sea water accord which is ever present but not aquatic (hey calone fans, there is no calone here…Thank God!) that is blended with a final accord of green woods and dusty musk; this final accord makes the scent feel very masculine.
Good longevity and projection.
Thumbs up!
