Charriol Men
by Charriol
Charriol Men presents a fresh, delicate fusion of pear, citrus, and floral notes with a soft woody base, creating a light and uplifting scent ideal for spring and summer. The initial burst of juicy pear and green freshness is bright and refreshing, with subtle hints of lavender, cedar, and white florals, giving it a modern, clean masculinity. The drydown reveals a smooth, slightly sweet suede-like base with musk and amber, lending an elegant warmth that lingers without dominating. Many note its resemblance to Paco Rabanne Black XS in character but find it more refined, natural, and less synthetic, while some appreciate its similarity to Versace Pour Homme in structure but with more cedar presence. The scent feels balanced, unhurried, and unobtrusive—perfect for office settings, daytime wear, and casual summer outings.
