Lalique Pour Homme Equus

Lalique Pour Homme Equus is a uniquely refined, aromatic woody fragrance that evokes a vivid sense of natural woodland scenery—freshly cut evergreen, damp earth, and subtle herbal notes—while maintaining an elegant, understated presence. It opens with a bright, clean citrus burst of bergamot, citron, and lemon, quickly shifting into a complex interplay of cardamom, juniper, nutmeg, and violet leaf, which imparts a soft, green-spicy character. The heart is dense and earthy, built around a refined core of amyris, benzoin, leather, vetiver, and musk, creating a sense of moist, resinous wood and subtle texture. The base feels quietly sensual and grounded, with a balsamic sweetness and lingering woody warmth that lingers on the skin. The scent is poised rather than bold, leaning into natural sophistication rather than raw masculinity. It manifests best in spring, summer, and autumn, where its freshness and balance shine, and it fits comfortably in professional, casual, or outdoor settings. Despite its quality, longevity is modest—around moderate to long but not legendary—and the sillage is soft, often close to the body. The bottle has undergone a redesign, replacing the deep embossed horse with a flat etched pattern, which some find less visually compelling than the original.
