Bottega Veneta Pour Homme Parfum

Bottega Veneta Pour Homme Parfum is a deeply masculine, aromatic woody scent with a strong leather core and prominent fir resin, cardamom, cedar, and tonka bean. It evokes an old-world vintage elegance—smooth, dark, and rich—suitable for cool autumn and winter wear, particularly in formal or evening settings. The fragrance is a bold, linear evolution of the original Pour Homme, with a focused, intense presentation that leans toward niche quality rather than synthetic or mainstream sweetness. It performs best when worn on clothing or in close proximity to the skin, as its sillage is moderate to intimate and longevity is inconsistent, with some users reporting only a few hours of wear despite expectations of longer duration. While the scent is praised for its sophistication, robust ingredients, and powerful character, many agree the performance falls short of a true parfum standard. The fragrance feels refined and confident, closer to a sophisticated statement than a fleeting expression. Its presence is quiet but detectable, like a man stepping into a room with calm authority.
