I blind bought Yatagan, Vermeil for Men, & Salvador Dali Pour Homme simultaneously, primarily based on the similarity between the three and the very favorable reviews.
I am somewhat disappointed.
Yatagan is multi-faceted, but I can’t get past the cat urine note.
Vermeil is complex as well, but there is a cloying sweetness to it (maybe the black currant & violet leaf?).
By layering Yatagan with Vermeil, a more palatable scent results; Yatagan’s cat piss note is masked and the cloying sugar of Vermeil is somewhat neutralized. So, I guess that’s how I will use those two.
I find Dali the most intriguing & enjoyable, it is very complex, with many notes detectable simultaneously. Although at times, there is a down & dirty funky note that is off-putting.

Why haven’t I worn this fabulous fragrance in such a long time? Simply wonderful. Vermeil is definitely a fragrance for a mature gentleman. This isn’t for a callow manhoy who wants to reek of candy or the wimpy unisex crowd. No this is one for the grownups, which doesn’t necessarily mean old. As for the fragrance it is a powerful but smoothly balanced melange of spicy citrus aromas fortified with some black current sweetness and galbanum ompf; next a gorgeous bouquet of masculine florals emerge staring ylang ylang, freesia, carnation and rose that stand opon a traditional base of oakmoss, Vetiver and patchouli. Yes, of course detractors will whine “80’s”, “old man”, “barbershop” and the like but that means this stuff smells great.
If you enjoy wearing a well cut suit (not today’s silly skinny and too small popular cut), cuff links, fedoras, and enjoy an occasional fine cigar and Scotch Whisky you’ll love this fragrance. And women (not little girls) will love smelling it on you.

Great bang for the buck I paid 17$CDN for 100ml and it has excellent longevity and excellent projection. Better overall performance than some 200$ and 300$ perfumes out there and it smells great.

File under ‘guilty pleasure’.
This is an initially great smelling, full bodied and complex fragrance, but it’s not subtle or smooth, and yes it smells dated (and a bit cheap, which it is). There’s prominent galbanum here, which along with the oriental hints make it similar to ‘Vol de Nuit’. So that plus the slight soapiness is giving the fragrance a classic old-school smell, as well as standing proud in the 80s full blown fougere category.
Not only dated, but ‘old man’. Not only is this referencing bygone eras quite faithfully, it’s also themed around ‘old man’ pursuits – think pipe tobacco and dark spirits. Is it too mean spirited to say there’s also a pine disinfectant smell in there which suggests an old people’s home? As the fragrance evolves it seems to become more fragmented and harsh, and not to mellow out. Havana by Aramis springs to mind, but this is something a little more deranged. Where Aramis is a cosy night in by the hearth with rum and cigars, this is more a cosy huddle round a bin fire in the park chuffing on a roll-up and slurping Jack Daniels from a paper bag.
The sweetness of the blackcurrant combines with some of the astringent (medicinal) bitterness of the other notes and reminds me a lot of ‘Acteur’ by Azzaro. But here, replacing the expert pathos of the tragic rose is its fumbling understudy, the foolhardiness of the courageous tobacco.
A flamboyant fragrance, but not a safe one. This seems to be covering every base but subtlety. A manlified, crass, unapologetic Vol de Nuit – what was smooth has been pulled out, hammered down and made angular. The fearless may enjoy with abandon.

A refined perfume, just bought a brand new bottle, did spray 3 times and this is a Powerhouse.
It starts with a fresh sharp citrus (lemon) like the 80s powerhouses, than goes to a great fresh tobacco leaf with some sweet like honey or old cognac, a perfect well blended fragrance.
This is the fragrance every man should try at least one time, not for young people lets say after 30 years old.
A fantastic juice that remember us the great 80´s fragrances with quality and no IFRA restrictions.
ASAP will try to buy others bottles because this fragrance is great, dress well in a suit for man that knows what want and with the confidence to live like a real man.
After that it is a fragrance under radar and if you look well you can find them cheap.
Rate:
Smell: 9.5 powerhouse from 80’s high quality and balanced
Performance: in all aspects Beast Mode, longevity clouths for days in skin my top is 14hours but going strong… and after shower still persists… A masterpiece with its own personality, nothing like the new era of perfumary where it is hard to find something really special that delivers good smell and performance.

I remember the 80’s, and I remember the “power scents” of that era. I never liked them, as they are unapologetic to no end (“yes, I am powerful, so what?”). Too much “power” for me. Vermeil puts you right back in the 80’s, mullets and all. Bought it really cheap but I can’t even use it as bath spray: I get an instant headache. Kudos for you if you are into that sort of fragrance.

If Davidoff for Men, Balenciaga Pour Homme and Boss Number One had a 3-way love child, Vermeil PH would be their progeny.
An amazing scent with a great longevity and sillage. It’s like the 80’s never said goodbye.

I discovered this fragrance with the help of youtuber Lex – Fragrances with Lex – Vermeil For Men by Jean Louis Vermeil.
What an amazing fragrance. The show begins with the fantastic looking bottle. From the first spray (not really a good spray) you know you are scenting a piece of jewelery. Vibes of respectful designers arise: Pour Lui from Oscar de la Renta, Tobacco Oud by Tom Ford, Davidoff by Davidoff, Bogart for man, Lapidus for man….
But not really the same notes or behaviour. It’s more an association you make imediatly with bold, manly, classy fragrances for men with 30+ years old. Vermeil is the supeman of the fougéres.
What an amazing fragrance hidden gem!
Well above average longevity (12+ hours) and projection (3+ hours).
Rating for Vermeil:
Scent:9.5
Longevity: 8.5
Sillage:7.5
Versatility: 9.0
Uniqueness: 9.0
Quality:8.5
Presentation: 9.0
Average: 8.71/10,00
PS – I paid €13,00 for 100 ml

As the the reviewer below me said this is similar to One Man Show Gold. That is true. However, it’s not as musky as OMSG, is much smoother, and has a freshness to it that OMSG lacks. Vermeil PH is like layering OMSG with Lapidus Pour Homme and with a little Kouros to give it some clean freshness rather than all out dirty like LPH. Although tobacco is not in the notes it smells like it does have tobacco with some wood and a touch of floral and powder done in a very masculine way. It does not have the staying power of OMSG and LPH, but it’s not bad as I usually get 6 to 8 hours. I suggest a spray to the shirt because it increases the longevity significantly on clothes, particularly cotton, from my experience.
Vermeil PH is as masculine as it gets and the value is hard to beat… I paid $15.99 for 3.4oz. The presentation is very classy and manly with its light brown cannister and shiny gold color top. It seems to be getting harder to find so I suggest you pick up a bottle if you are a serious collector or just looking for a masculine cologne to put in your rotation. Especially if you enjoy OMSG, LPH, Korous and other balls to the wall uber-masculine fragrances mentioned in my review. If you don’t like fragrances with the composition of those… then you should avoid Vermeil Pour Homme.
Lastly, Vermeill PH is more for mature gentlemen 30+. But I could see younger gents pulling this off with a gentlemen-like, mature, confident attitude. 9/10 easily.

This fragrance is honestly pretty nice, but sort of an “acquired” taste. As a young, college student myself, I can tell you, you’re not going to be picking up many dates wearing this stuff. Girls don’t tend to prefer guys who smell like their grandads. But for myself, I think its a wonderfully spicy, citrus, tobacco, scent with excellent lasting power. I’ve found that my other male friends my age really like it too. It smells timeless and classic. I am reminded of a library full of old books or maybe a study room of some classic writer. Another setting that comes to mind– an elegant bar in 1960s New York, where smoking is the social norm and high-end Scotch flows freely into the late hours of the night as live jazz plays. Its the scent of a true “Man Man”. Really a great fragrance. And if the ladys don’t like, well, dont wear it for them, wear it for your self.
anton 16 – :
Oh Yes!! Although there is no indication of tobacco as a note, the collection of ingredients creates an accord of tobacco in this Masculine perfume. The opening has an astringency reminiscent of Maxim’s. The sugar content is kept to a minimum by using the natural floral sweetness of Freesia, Rose, Ylang Ylang. Whispers of Fumerie Turque(pissy Currant) and Lagerfeld Cologne. Mossy, musky background creates a little earthiness and adds longevity. Reminds me, in some ways of Criminal in Love by Killian because of the Blond tobacco.
Both perfumes use “interesting” bottle shapes.
Nice quality for pocket change.
Maya_Gem – :
Vermeil definitely falls into the “powerhouse” category without question! Upon initial spray I get a deep and animalistic oakmoss kick alongside a sweet, almost boozy black currant. I can see where one may say that this is similar to Salvador Dali Pour Homme in it’s animalic nature, but Vermeil is much sweeter and I can only make that connection in the opening…and it is fleeting at best. The Dali Pour Homme is much more dry to me and has this sort of fermented quality to it. I definitely smell the carnation and a tiny bit of galbanum in the florals present here, and although I don’t really pick up on much patchouli or citrus independently at this stage, I can only assume that they are helping to create the freshly-opened-pack-of-cigarettes accord I notice in the middle stages of this fragrance. The carnation note really supports the ‘cigarette tobacco’ feel honestly. The tobacco accord is another characteristic that is lost in the dry down and in the end you are left with a slightly musky, wood/cedar with a bit of oakmoss and a light patchouli. Although this ended up not really being my type of fragrance as it was bit too “heady” for me in the opening and middle stages, it is a great option for someone looking for an affordable powerhouse that has an animalic/oakmoss kick! The longevity on this one is powerful as well and it definitely projects, so be careful upon application.
dtyth – :
What a fantastic leathery oakmoss and green floral scent. A little spice from the carnation and coriander. Brightness from the freesia and citrus.
Very well blended and tenacious. Nothing synthetic smelling to me… just pure strength and endurance.
The strength is quite a shocker on first spray… very old school on the heart notes shining through even on the initial spray.
This classes up there with some of the greats like Aramis Classic, Oscar De La Renta Pour Lui, and Aramis 900.
If you like extravagant fragrance and performance, you need to buy this very classy scent.
Fermilos – :
A lot of tobacco here. Greatly balanced, very long lasting fragrance.
Only one thing I don’t like is the spray, it’s not working well. But for the price I payed for it, it’s still a steal.
ParkerMego – :
A great oakmoss fragrance with a healthy amount of patchouli, carnation and musk. Actually. it’s much more complicated – notes come and go, from citric accords in the opening to woody-musky in the drydown. Strong but not overpowering. Long lasting with decent sillage. A true classic (who said they don’t make cologne like this anymore!), but by no means old-fashioned. Try it – and nobody will suspect you’re a time traveler 🙂

howdy, can any one tell me where i can buy this cologne besides on-line?or am i safe to purchase this on line like ebay or such?is this cologne bootlegged much or not worth faking?
КатеринаН – :
I’ve worn this fragrance a half-dozen times since purchasing it back in March when I was madly buying vintage, little known, and Middle-Eastern oakmoss fragrances in the form of chypres and fougeres. To me, Jean Louis Vermeil Pour Homme is an elegant “Gentlemen’s Club” fragrance to be enjoyed while wearing a blazer, sipping bourbon or scotch, and puffing on a stogie…which is probably why I haven’t worn it much in public. As much as I love and appreciate this scent, it’s not very versatile and it has that old-school charm that not everyone will appreciate.
I’m still on the learning curve with chypre and fougere fragrances but, to give others an idea of how it smells, I can say that it’s in the same family (e.g., a 2nd cousin) to Davidoff Pour Homme and Aramis Devin. Certainly not a clone, but you get the jist of what this fragrance is all about. Performance is good to above average and, overall, I found this to be a very nice fragrance…and it was certainly bargain priced.
The bottle is pretty cool, but I’m on the fence on the cheap plastic coffret. The sideways sprayer shocked the hell out of me sine I’ve never seen one before. And I almost sprayed myself in the face which would have been far from decent, I must say!
Okay, I envision this fragrance being the perfect scent for Ricardo Mantalban and Hervé Villechaize while waiting for guests to arrive on Fantasy Island. You whipper snappers probably have no clue who I’am talking about. If so, you may not be seasoned enough to appreciate this fragrance.

While this is supposed to be a “tobacco” scent, the bottle looking like a classic lighter, I don’t notice anything tobacco like here. It certainly isn’t at all like the “Cuba” type frags. This is simply a delightful but full bodied fragrance, very rich but balanced. Ir starts off just very “perfumy” in a nice way but dries down to a balanced bittersweet, floral, herby scent. Vermeil is assertive but not agressive, strongly sexy but in a refined manner. This is an alpha male scent. If you’re not a alpha male don’t even give a try. If you are spray and enjoy.
xgv678InsuffBooni – :
The more I use Vermeil, the more I am enjoying it. I have also been using the after shave balm and shower gel to magnify the manly journey. I’m amazed that some get limited longevity with this beauty. Three sprays for me and I’m set for 8+ hours. This is not a scent that most would gravitate towards, but for those that understand and appreciate something different and special will wear this with joy. The price is too good to ignore, especially when Vermeil is a first cousin with Davidoff Original.

Hard to believe you find Vermeil similar to Kouros as they both are completely different in smell and notes.
They only comparison I find (owning 8 bottles of Kouros, also vintages) is the soapiness. Both true Kings!

So I just purchased a bottle of Kouros and couldn’t wait to try it. Unwrapped it as soon asI got in my car and sprayed on the back of my hand .Inhaled deeply and wow…this smells familiar.Got home and sprayed my other hand with Vermeil. Wouldn’t you know it , they’re almost identical. Vermeil has a louder opening. So I smelled it throughout the evening from one hand to the other and the middle notes and dry down are almost identical. Beautiful my friends, enjoy!
lamer91 – :
I agree compeletely with this review by ‘Sacredsystem’. It’s exactly how I see this fragrancce, also owning the Original Davidoff which by the way has NO Tobacco note in it!
I don’t know if there are multiple versions of this fragrance but I own two 100ml bottles, bought last three years and both are identical. Imo this is not very light at all but very strong, especially in the opening and the longevity is at least 8 hrs with above average projection. Maybe I have two vintage bottles if there are any. I also own Relax and Vermeil is not even close to similar to Davidoff Relax (imo). I also think the notes, listed by Fragrantica are wrong and incomplete on this one (where is the Tobacco?). Big thumbs up for this very maculine macho fragrance! Rating: 9/10
fiera – :
VPH might be the best buy and hidden manly gem in town. Take my beloved Davidoff (1984), file down its rough edges, add some light florals and musk to make it more “wearable” and what you have left is a smooth tobacco and floral adventure that is perfect for a mature and established gentleman. It is very linear and somewhat transparent…….So what? I am currently sitting outside smoking a cigar and enjoying my favorite Scotch (Lagavulin) wearing VPH and I am very happy. It is not in the same league as Davidoff, but sometimes one needs a smoother touch to iron out the wrinkles of the day.
xxxmozg – :
This is another throwback to the 80s Powerhouse Era, definitely a lot going on here. Vermeil Pour Homme is a mossy patch bomb drizzled with syrup. I didn’t get any tobacco from this at all. Has this really been reformulated or is the bottle design making us think tobacco is a note? Hmmm…
What I do get is a lighter version of Salvador Dali Pour Homme with just a little more sweetness in the opening. The middle floral notes and the patchouli/sandalwood dry down are almost identical…but Vermeil Pour Homme isn’t as heavy and the berry notes in the opening burn off quickly. Not a bad scent but you have to love patchouli to appreciate this one. Longevity and projection are high…probably not safe for the office but good for a night out.
bileDoleata – :
Their is a bunch of notes going on here. Tobacco is not one of them. I don’t know which version I have but it’s more floral than anything. Also some earthiness due to the patch and vetiver. Very on lasting with mega sillage but I don’t see myself reaching for this again. I go it in a lot so at least I did not expect much from it s it was basically a throw in. Not bad but their are far more interesting scents.
AleksXXL – :
@omar.melmo:
I know the two bottles I’ve had were not identical in design and by looking on ebay I see another one that looks a little different than the other two. The new one with the more linear design seems a little weaker in the drydown but the first 45 minutes or so is what I find very different, mostly in terms of intensity. Another one you might like is Joint for Men, which I doubt was ever reformulated. However, as a “cheapo,” nothing beats this Vermeil scent (for the kind of scent it is), even in the linear design bottle!
scale20 – :
Thank you Bigsly for the valuable input ! So you confirm they were at least two different bottles ergo two different formulas.. The old formula sounds just like heaven to me because I really had a crush on this cheap cologne..
rezni4enkovadik – :
There are at least three different bottle designs, from what I’ve seen (I’ve tried two of them). The original, which I swapped off a few years ago when my sensitivity was very high, has very strong top notes, including a lime-like quality, musk, and an animalic element (which I’m guessing is mostly if not all castoreum). The newer bottle design (which is more “linear” and the metal trim on the bottle does not jut outwards as much as the original did) has hardly any top notes, relative to the first bottle I bought. The drydown for both is similar, but it’s weaker for the new one, and there seems to be a bit more woody/patchouli and a bit less tobacco (along with a slightly “synthetic” background hum, so to speak). The list of notes above does not seem consistent with my experience of either bottle, and I’m wondering if it’s supposed to be for some other scent. To me the strong notes (of vintage) are citrus, musk, castoreum, and tobacco. The citrus and musk are very strong at first, with the castoreum and tobacco shining through after an hour or so. I’d say there is some geranium and florals, though not much if any lavender, along with light woods/patchouli and a bit of amber to soften and sweeten if up a bit. I don’t get any strong herbs or spices. All in all, if you like “old school” tobacco scents, this one is worth the present prices, though if you already own the original Davidoff scent and are a stickler for “naturalness,” you may be disappointed (though the Davidoff doesn’t have a tobacco note). Those who think vintage Kouros is too strong but like the idea (along with an added tobacco note), may want to sample this one, especially if you don’t mind strong top notes in the original formulation (which seems to be quite difficult to obtain now anyway).
UPDATE: I saw a bottle that was old and scratched up. The design was a bit different, so I thought it might be “vintage.” I think it is! The difference is huge to me, because with the newer one, the notes are really “sticky” and a bit “synthetic.” Over time, it gets somewhat irritating, whereas with what I think is the vintage bottle it just gets better and better over time. I also noticed this same phenomenon with Acteur, and I really wish I knew what caused it, because if you take a “quick sniff” they do smell quite similar. It’s only after wearing it for a while that the difference becomes really significant to me, though as soon as I sprayed on this scratched-up bottle I said to myself, “that stickiness is absent.” Vintage of this one is a top ten scent among all those I’ve tried over the years !
igoruan – :
Wow what a surprise ! A really nice scent ! For the price, the natural rendition of tobacco and the ingeniousness of the composition are really stunning ! Almost a miracle ! How they managed to achieve such a simple, awesome, naturalistic and yet totally affordable tobacco fragrance is beyond me ! As Karlovonamesti has pointed out : who the hell is Jean Louis Vermeil ?? The guy deserves an award for this awesome scent hahaha ! The opening is quite strong and in your face (not the best part of the pyramide) but it settles down nicely to something totally wearable in spring days.. I don’t get all the notes listed here, what I get is soft tobacco and flowers.. and a bit of sour orange at the top.. It’s a very assertive scent though not “powerhouse” assertive.. it stays perfectly polite and gentlemanly.. what a good surprise this frag is !
Addendum : one bad thing about this frag, the sprayer is really lame ! One of the weakest I’ve ever tested ! One pressure delivers a really meager amount of the juice and you have the sensation you’ll almost break the cap.. for decent longevity and sillage you have to double your usual application…
kolob2000 – :
This scent has the same ingredients as my loved Rutan eau de toilette. Rutan was a German perfume producer. They claimed to be specialized on making natural perfumes. The scent of Rutan (grey bottle) is much darker and has much more notes than Vermeil. While Vermeil is a light scent for everyday use, Rutan is for night use. Rutan is much darker than Vermeil, it’s the darkest scent I know so far. When you wear Rutan, every other scent is hidden.
So let’s come back to Vermeil. Vermeil is a linear and light tobacco scent. It’s sweet.
Some people say it reminds them of davidoff relax. Not to my nose. For me it’s 1:1 like Rutan, just extremely watered down. But that’s what makes this scent so attractive for wearing. While Rutan is just a killer, it kills every other scent around you with its dark tobacco scent. A gianfranco ferre for men hinds behind it like every other of the former powerhouse scents. Vermeil is a soft, sweet tobacco scent. It’s saying, I want to be a part with you. I don’t have the aim like Rutan to show everyone around me that I am the strongest. That’s it, vermeil is soft, sweet, beautiful. It last long. The silage is not that big.
It’s just that I have found a good alternative to the super Powerhouse Rutan.
langricksijkee – :
The rumor is that Vermeil is a lighter carbon-copy of the original eponymous Davidoff fragrance, which makes it a very good and straightforward tobacco frag. I think it’s also very similar to Davidoff’s Relax, with a similar handling of rosewood. The top accord is one of those retro citrus/musk pairings, with healthy shots of geranium, a suggestion of lavender, basil, thyme, and perhaps a little bit of urinous blackcurrant bud to segue into a very dry and “brown” tobacco. This is not a cured tobacco, it’s more of a picked leaf scent, but there’s a clever mix of highly blended floral notes that keep it from smelling simplistic or “dirty.” To my nose the most notable florals in all-day wear are carnation and rose, and the drydown yields a pleasant rosewood/sandalwood/musk accord.
I’ve read that this has been reformulated, and was once more aggressive, particularly in the top notes. I can’t verify that, but I don’t really believe it. The provenance of this fragrance is murky, it’s a very cheap formula, and to my knowledge there has never been a packaging change – old and new bottles are perfectly identical, despite what some photo comparisons might show. The smoky pattern on the lighter can look different depending on the light, but when you peruse online merchants and Google images, you find there is one standard appearance. Also the top of Vermeil is definitely in your face, but it lightens up and wears comfortably with time, as most reviewers elsewhere can attest to. Vermeil for Men is one of the best tobacco fougeres out there. If you like old-school tobacco fragrances, and you haven’t smelled this one, you might want to get on that.

Powerhouse tobacco. On me , VPH is a semi-sweet tobacco scent with 7 hr longevity and medium projection. Linear, but I like it. I’ve read it has been discontinued, so if you enjoy tobacco scents, get it while you can.
