About Samba Nova Homme
Samba Nova Homme by Perfumer’s Workshop is an aromatic fragrance for men. Launched in 1993, this composition features an olfactory pyramid designed by a master perfumer. The top notes unfold a vibrant accord of lavender, fruity notes, green notes, neroli, bergamot, and coriander. The heart of the fragrance reveals the elegance of geranium, the freshness of statice, the delicacy of jasmine, and the softness of lily of the valley. Finally, the base notes settle into a warm and persistent foundation of musk, oakmoss, cedar, tonka bean, and amber.

Share what you noticed: opening, drydown, sillage and the moments when it works for you.
The alcohol note comes through strongly, then it becomes overpowering without any standout notes. However, for a ten-dollar perfume, you can’t ask for more, and it lasts just as long as the classics. It’s been over thirty years without much to say for or against it, except that it was easy to grab when you were young and cost between five and eight dollars. If you want to know what it smells like, think of a cheap Le Male, and to make matters worse, with a strong alcohol opening. It’s good for a quick fix.
Olfactory trend reminiscent of Jean Paul Gaultier’s Le Male.
