Reviews of Karl Lagerfeld pour Homme by Lagerfeld
Hard to love.
That's the problem here.
Too much violet leaf, and the cold stark facade of this makes it...hard to love.
But...there is something about this. It is ahead of it's time me thinks. Snatch one up now while it is fantastically inexpensive. Don't open it for 10 years. When you get sick of the hyper sweet and over the top aroma chems that crowd the market today, I suspect KLPH will be refreshing.

Very very bad. Longliverty is poor, nothing special. 12 in a dozen. Don't buy it. It's a waste of money !
A depressing mainstream green-citrus-woody metallic scent, anonym, dull, easily mistakable with any masculine scent you can find at the mall. Poor longevity and ultra-poor quality.
4/10

And Lo! A prediction for 2014 has come to pass.
Karl Lagerfeld is a cynical thrust at the 'youth' market and is a risible fragrance. It is generic, lazy, devoid of any innovation and smells like a chemical dump next to an orchard.
This has got to be an early contender for the worst 'designer' fragrance of 2014
I hope it tanks badly, but I fear it won't.

Frankly this further mainstream sporty/casual aromatic fougere does not impress me guys. KL Pour Homme (or For Him) New is a more than decent herbal/aromatic modern woody concoction for sure but I'm obliced anyway to underline by soon a factual element: how many really similar virile concoctions linger at the same time around? How many Trussardi Uomo New version, Adidas, Lanvin, Gentlemen Only, Gucci by Gucci Pour Homme Sport or Police the Sinner project (or have in the years aroused around) a really similar vibe? Is such a type of fragrance absolutely necessary or represents on the contrary another redundancy exercise? I detect a virile central accord appointed by a link between aromatic lavender, dry spices (hints of pepper), ambergris and woods all enriched by a pungent and watery/metallic fruity-floral olfactory agreement performed by dominant violet and mandarine surrounded by a really vague ozonic spark. I detect the green apple but it's overstated by a very heady orangy vibe (the mandarine is more powerful than the violet). The violet is finally notable conjuring me many violet leaves based previous experiments (Lanvin l'Homme or Trussardi Uomo New for instance). Hints of patchouli and tonka close the round. The aroma is finally anonymous and slightly synthetic in perception even if we can't properly define this olfactory fatigue a sheer and noticeable failure. Longevity and projection are in the average. Nice bottle. 5/10.
