Moncler pour Homme
by Moncler
Moncler pour Homme is a deeply masculine woody fragrance with a prominent pine note that gives it an outdoorsy, forest-like character. It opens with a peppery, aromatic clary sage and green tone, followed by a creamy sandalwood and vetiver heart that softens the sharpness. The scent is linear and straightforward, with a notable creaminess and depth that feels plush and comforting, especially in colder weather. It performs exceptionally well—lasting for hours on skin and far longer on clothing—and projects moderate, distinct sillage. Many find it evocative of Santal 33 or Encre Noir but with a lighter, greener, and more inoffensive profile. While some experience an unpleasant animalic or 'pickle' note due to skin chemistry, many others describe it simply as a pleasing, warm, down-to-earth woody scent that suits relaxed, mature men and outdoor enthusiasts. The bottle is bold and heavy, adding to its collector's appeal, though the price is widely considered high.
