Gucci Pour Homme II
by Gucci
Gucci Pour Homme II is a refined, warm-spiced tea fragrance that evolves with a subtle interplay of black tea, cinnamon, and tobacco. The opening features a green, herbal violet leaf note balanced with bergamot—a fresh yet slightly odd sensation that some perceive as overly watery or cucumber-like. Over time, the fragrance settles into a velvety, comforting heart of black tea, cinnamon, and pimento, gently counterbalanced by the warmth of tobacco and myrrh. This creates a scent that is delicate, inoffensive, and deeply personal—ideal for quiet moments, cozy evenings, or intimate settings. Its signature lies in its calm, unobtrusive elegance, where the perfume feels less like a statement and more like a comforting presence. While it doesn’t project widely or last for more than moderate duration on most skin types, its softness and nuanced warmth are what draw devoted followers.
