An impeccable classic that I’ve worn since its launch; no other Loewe men’s fragrance has surpassed it. I’m not an expert in notes, but I feel the emotions it awakens: it’s pure Mediterranean, like a walk through a sun-drenched garden in May. I feel clean, cheerful and elegant, with that perfumed leather base which is simply wonderful.
An infallible classic I have worn since its launch; no other Loewe men’s fragrance has surpassed it. I am not an expert on notes, but I feel the emotions it evokes: it is pure Mediterranean, like a walk through a garden in the May sun. I feel clean, cheerful and elegant, with that wonderful scented leather base.
HORRIBLE. One of the worst colognes I have ever tried. It smells like a handful of herbs rubbed on the skin, an ochre, acidic and dirty green scent, like plants about to rot.
It is a jewel of elegance and magic, though it falls slightly short on longevity for my skin. If you have the right skin chemistry, it is a wonderful treat, but it does not forgive individual differences.
An absolute classic, citrusy, floral and substantial. Strong and intense without being cloying. It was the king of the 80s and 90s, masculine, with a heavy and long-lasting trail. Ideal for mature men with class and confidence. Although it is a timeless landmark, I am not sure I would wear it today, but it is essential in any collection.

Loewe Pour Homme is very well-balanced and fresh, without any dated notes, although the current version is a bit weak in projection. It’s herbal with a Mediterranean touch and perhaps a hint of pepper. Ideal for summer or spring days. It reminds me of a discontinued fragrance called Bowling Green.
Loewe Pour Homme is very well made and balanced. It is woody and fresh; although created some time ago, it does not smell outdated. The current version is a bit weak in projection but with regular longevity. An herbal aroma with a Mediterranean touch, though undeclared, I think it has pepper. Ideal for day, summer, and spring. It reminds me of Bowling Green, a fragrance known some time ago and now discontinued.
I am a 33-year-old engineer; I wear this with a suit for meetings with older people. They hold themselves back asking what perfume I am using. It projects strong citrus, like freshly cut plants, progressing to fresh woods. Trail and longevity are moderate. It is a classic. Above 25 degrees, vetiver projects a lot, and I note cardamom. In autumn, I combine it with Calvin Klein Escape to highlight the woody side. For daytime and formal use. Update 2017: ideal for spring, summer, and early autumn in temperate climates. In summer above 30 degrees it distorts, and in winter the woody notes dominate, losing the herbal aspect. In balance, it takes me back to childhood running through wet hills after the rain, climbing wet trees feeling the fresh breeze. At times I note a hint of pine, but the herbals dominate. In summer, vetiver can be harassing and heavy, a penetrating sawdust smell. It is not as versatile as we would wish; one must know how to use it.
A Spanish classic that captures the Mediterranean soul: that organic Italian bergamot mixed with rosemary and basil, backed by a vetiver base that makes it aromatic. It has been around for years; I doubt if it was reformulated but it remains faithful to its style. Projection and longevity are moderate, though in the heat, it is very noticeable on my skin. One of my favourites.
I like it. It begins with a citrus-green combo with lemon and basil. Then geranium floral and oakmoss enter, dominating until the end. In the final phase, moss and vetiver. I tried a vintage version and it lasts quite a while. It feels classic but would not clash today. I see it as versatile for summer, spring, and autumn, with lasting longevity and moderate trail.
Loewe Pour Homme is for lovers of classic fougères; try it if you enjoy Guerlain Vetiver or Acqua di Selva. It starts citrusy, green, and dry. It is like rubbing a handful of herbs, and for me, that is a virtue. Refined, elegant, and complex; the green notes are crisp and natural, settling over oakmoss and vetiver that evoke nature after the rain. It owes something to Victor from the 70s, but without fleetingness and better than Paco Rabanne without that creamy tone. That freshness makes it wearable today, ideal for summer with absolute versatility. It demands a shirt or polo. It is not an olfactory bomb, but an aura fragrance that leaves a trail of glory. Very good longevity and absolutely recommended.
One of my favourites: citrusy, green, and clean.
I own this Spanish gem in 150ml, amber-coloured, presumably the first formula. From the cap, I detected those rich herbal ranges. I was so absorbed inhaling the essence that I forgot the seller until she asked if it was a gift; my answer was clear: this Loewe is for me. It opens with intense citrus, bergamot, lemon, and plenty of lime. Minutes later, the herbs arrive: sage and rosemary gaining intensity, with touches of basil. The freshness and articulation of the citrus with the herbal notes are the best. Lavanda breaks the balance without eclipsing anything. Vetiver is perfect, taking the lead at half an hour alongside sandalwood and a spicy aura. A sweet-and-sour orange note makes itself felt. Green moss matures in the heart stage. Many compare it to Azzaro 1978, but for me, Loewe has more herbs, whereas Azzaro is more aniseed and sweet. It is very masculine.
Revisiting the Jabonero review from 2012: little more can be added to this marvel. It is curious how, years later, it is now that I truly enjoy this top among tops. It brings back memories of my youth and is, for me, Loewe’s finest work for men. It is pure Mediterranean, like a walk through an orchard by the sea on a May morning as the sun begins to warm. It makes me feel clean, cheerful, and elegant all at once. That perfumed leather base… what a wonder. I cannot distinguish technical notes, but what I feel is magic.
What can one say about this classic alongside Cacharel Pour Homme? It is a delicious, clean, and dapper scent. Absolutely recommended. I refer to the one with the leather cap, the original. A great perfume, an authentic classic that never fails.
The world of perfumes has become larger and greedier, flooding the market with noisy fragrances lacking in taste. Yet Loewe Pour Homme resists this pressure, an aroma born when a good scent was the hallmark of a true gentleman. It is a beautiful, rare fragrance that transports you to freshly watered fields and forests, filling you with peace. Petitgrain, citrus, and lavender open strongly, blending with green herbs before amber and oakmoss envelop everything in a warm, bitter atmosphere. The 90s version has more moss and florals than the current one, but both create that perfect Mediterranean landscape where everything is right and you can relax. It is a well-rounded, fresh fragrance with a pleasant trail; undoubtedly the best from the house.
The world of fragrances has grown with greed, but this scent stands firm and recalls a true gentleman. It awakens the senses with a deep peace of freshly watered fields, thanks to the citrus, lavender and spices. The 90s version is more heavily musky and floral than the current one, both with incredible depth. It’s a perfect Mediterranean landscape, relaxing and reassuring. Loewe Pour Homme is a well-rounded work, fresh, with a pleasant trail and moderate longevity; without a doubt, the best from the house.
I remember seeing a bottle at my grandfather’s house. Now, passing by the perfumery, I asked them to let me test it. It’s not a cologne for a twenty-something. Visually it makes me think of a fragrance accompanied by a perfectly ironed white shirt. It smells classic and I confess that after having it for a good while, it starts to smell outdated to me. The longevity is tremendous for what we are used to today, it perfectly reaches 10-12 hours.
According to the RAE, synaesthesia is when one sensation affects another sense. I recently tested a tester bottle of Loewe Pour Homme that seems to me a version from years ago, stored in perfect condition. It’s the squatty bottle of old, without batch code or box, impossible to know the year. Its liquid is amber yellow with a greenish touch. It has been a look at classicism, a synaesthesia in every rule. When I sprayed generously on my arm, I raised my eyes and saw the Parthenon. Last night I dreamed I was returning to Manderley, today to the Athenian Acropolis. A white light blinded my eyes before marble temples covered in gold. My Acropolis has golden temples, real or not. Loewe Pour Homme has taken me in a whirlwind to a world where oakmoss blends with the wisdom of Athena; lemon runs through the forests with Artemis; lavender ventures into the underworld with Hermes; lily of the valley enchants with Aphrodite and, above all, the Great Father Zeus complacently observes the ecstatic vapours of his Acropolis flooded with Loewe. A delight that mixes barber’s fougère with tipsy aromatics. A sweetness that was once masculine and today is as unisex as life. A detox sorbet from so much current sweetness, like the one taken between courses. My galloping synaesthesia, which mixes smells with visions and aromas with feelings, allows me to travel across the earth, space and time, from a bottled fragrance to the Olympus that we all have deep in our hearts. It is the luck of loving perfumes and letting oneself be carried away.
Loewe Pour Homme is a total synaesthesia: upon applying it, I see the Parthenon and dream of golden temples. It is a journey to Olympus where moss blends with wisdom and citrus with nature. A delight that combines fougère and aromatic notes, sweet yet masculine, a detoxifying sorbet against current excess. An experience that mixes scents, visions and feelings.
Good heavens, what Loewe did with this fragrance is enough to declare it a war crime… one of the best in history, reformulated and stripped of all its charm. Gentlemen, better bring out a new fragrance and don’t touch what already works. Look for the previous formulations (round bottle), they are very worth it, and don’t be silly buying blindly the new formulation (new bottle).
Smells 100% like Viking Cologne. I was going to travel, stopped at a duty-free and they let me test this Loewe Pour Homme with the long square brown bottle and another blue one I can’t remember the name of. As soon as I put it on my clothes and blotting paper, the thought escaped me ‘I’ve smelled this somewhere’. Think… think… bingo! Viking Cologne, which I have in my collection. It’s nothing of the world, it’s fresh and good, but like everything Creed, it’s not worth half the price. However, the Loewe has three times more power, longevity and projection. I had the opportunity to try the old round bottle and the difference is from earth to sun. Nothing lasts forever and, just like Creed ruined their signature perfumes, what a pity.
Very good fragrance, classic but super versatile. It’s citrusy without being dry, with an aromatic herbal touch. The projection and longevity are moderate. I think every man should try it at least once, especially in Argentina, because the Paco de Canno cologne (for children) is inspired by this and smells very similar; the first time I tried Loewe I thought ‘I’ve smelled this before’ and it was Paco, which is a light version. I recommend it very much. I have the new bottle, I don’t know the vintage.
The old one is still sold, but now under the name LOEWE Pour Homme Classic. It’s the oval yellow one. Smells like a citrus air freshener with lemon and some floral notes, very disappointing, who wants to smell like a classic air freshener in 2022? I don’t.
Loewe Pour Homme; a pleasant aroma that when I wear it basically envelops me with a combination of citrus notes, oakmoss, lavender and vetiver. The fragrance kept it in the rounded bottle with an amber-coloured synthetic leather cap; when I put it on, it generates a moderate trail and lasts quite a while on my skin. Greetings.
I feel lazy writing this, but for the second time in weeks I’ve tried Loewe Pour Homme, my thirty-year favourite. Nothing beats its freshness for summer. I will buy it again, although I regret the reformulations. Now it smells too much of citronella, like cheap cleaners, a crime against good taste. The only positive is that it repels mosquitoes. The original version was a perfectly balanced, humid forest, something that only Eau Sauvage recalls today.
Fougère EDT from 1974, and the good ones at that! More classic and old-school, impossible. Even Aramis or Oscar de la Renta seem like a kid’s plaything with a desire for a night out in comparison. Smell of an old man? Of course, and to be proud of it. Reformulated? Of course. These days, in 2023, they are reformulated right down to Invictus or CH Man. Any commercial fragrance older than two years disappears or gets reformulated down. That’s just how it is, mate, in the capitalist world. Moreover, with a perfume from 1974, due to legal regulations and because Loewe Spain is now part of the French Louis Vuitton group, they’ve even changed the bottle design. The original batches from the seventies were a cannon: eight hours’ longevity, heavy trail. It’s a classic fern formulation: sharp citrus opening, flowers, herbs, woods like macho vetiver and sandalwood, and amber to hold the combo together. Personally, with the market like this, if they hadn’t modernised it, I wouldn’t buy it, not even my uncle Paco, a retired trucker more beastly than an arao. Downgraded, to suit the taste of a mature twenty-first-century man, vintage but still very enjoyable. For collectors and fans of the old school.
I’m in no mood to write this, but for the second time in weeks I’m testing Loewe Pour Homme, my go-to fragrance of over thirty years. Although I’ve already looked for options for fresh or cold weather, nothing convinces me as much for summer as my beloved LpH… I’m going to buy it again, I tell myself. 😩 Now I understand why so many masters abhor reformulations. I’m not an expert, but it’s hard for the olfactory memory of youth to be lost. Either I have Alzheimer’s in the centre of my olfaction (age is catching up) or some genius decided that the best fougère to my taste, in the days of the round bottle with the leather cap, should become a monolithic ode to CITRONELLA. Hard not to associate it with cheap cleaners “with a lemon freshness”. Let’s look on the bright side, cognoscenti: mosquitoes won’t come near you. A crime in every rule against good taste, the act perpetrated by Loewe, to which only the mitigating circumstance of respecting in some way the “essence” of Esencia applies. “Esencia”, the EDT, still reminds me of my young days, those times when, without smelling bad, it seemed to me a slightly forced and rough version of a balanced and perfect humid forest, recreated back then by Loewe Pour Homme. Only Eau Sauvage manages to remind me in some way of that wonder.
Starts with a bath gel scent, clean but generic and cheap; it’s a crossroads that isn’t bad, but rather a promise. After five minutes, the tangerine takes over. For me, who am currently testing it, it’s been a total disaster because I absolutely hate the smell of tangerine, so if you like it, go ahead; if not, don’t even bother. Furthermore, it seems to me to be a terribly constructed fragrance, totally disjointed, like comparing the motorcycle from ‘The Great Escape’ to an eighties phone with a banana stuck to it. It’s strange and amorphous, an abortion of what it could have been. Don’t buy blindly, for heaven’s sake.
Helping with packing for a move to a friend’s house, I accidentally found a bottle at the bottom of a wardrobe, amidst clothes and mothballs. It was one of the relatively old ones: short and plump, and in this case, the liquid didn’t look as yellow and transparent as in the internet photos. After requesting permission, I was able to test the fragrance. The first consideration is that Pour Homme was designed for the man of the seventies of the last century (I imagine especially oriented towards the Spanish who could afford it) and remember that in those times the model of elegance, manners, ideals, and behaviour was quite different from what is fashionable today. The second is that the conception of luxury product was also different in that era; performance still mattered a lot. As they’ve said, Pour Homme is a fougère with a classic tint and a strong imprint of the old school, period. Testing it is understanding that, just as one must understand that a 1974 Toyota Land Cruiser was an off-road vehicle designed to facilitate work in the fields and/or take you where the water reached with thirst, not to compete with the friends of the Automobile Club. I imagine gentlemen (and not-so-gentlemen) around a table, loose ties, cigars in hand, cigarette packets and ashtrays (full to the brim with ash) occupying spaces between whisky glasses and empty bottles, all cheerful on the edge of drunkenness and in the air, a competition of perfume or cologne aftertastes among which this Pour Homme should not have been less. Today it’s a bit dated (perhaps quite a bit) and adapts a little to the times, but it hasn’t lost its form and base. Although I consider these types of aromas timeless (more out of nostalgia than by compelling arguments), if asked if it’s outdated, I would answer that certainly, just as waiting in the hospital waiting room, outside the maternity ward, for your firstborn to be born. On the other hand, that’s its plus and it wouldn’t clash at all if a confident gentleman wore it at his partner’s best friend’s baby shower. Recommended, therefore, but always thinking about what you’re looking for and not just judging the past from the current perspective or criticising the present with a black-and-white view.
This morning, at my parents’ house, I found a squat bottle with leather on the cap. With the boss’s permission, it stays in my collection. The opening is what I liked most, quite a bit; a perfume with reminiscences to Loewe Pour Homme EDP, squat bottle too. An aroma to enjoy for oneself, I think, since nowadays we’re going downhill without brakes with what they’re releasing. A fragrance from when a man would splash on it to have presence and say ‘here I am’, feeling undoubtedly like an alpha male, and without smelling like unisex vanilla perfumes etc. Undoubtedly, if you prefer to use it nowadays, I recommend wearing it a bit formally to avoid giving the impression of being outdated; a modern outfit and this perfume could go hand in hand just to step out of the mould. Undoubtedly, if you have the opportunity to get an old bottle, go for it headfirst; the new one, I don’t know if it’s worth it, Loewe lately seems quite expensive for the performance it offers.
Unfortunately, no projection or longevity at all, at least for me. It doesn’t last me two hours. For the price it’s not worth it. Pity not to have known its past glories. My other fougères like Azzaro Homme or Paco Rabanne Homme, not being beasts, have a quite decent performance. That said, what a wonderful aroma, a real lush forest on a sunny day.
Classic fragrance, affected citrus; at first I felt quite a lot of basil, but it disappeared quickly and strong orange and mandarin appeared. It reminds me of the classic citrus fragrances of the 80s, it has a good trail for this type of perfume and moderate longevity. In my country we’re in full winter; I think with a bit more temperature it will perform better.
The old classic but quite more diluted. Still, it remains very clean and exquisite. A lovely classic for the Guanche gentlemen. The round bottle (the classic) was better, but if you haven’t heard the classic before, this new one is brutal… a cushion.
It’s a great perfume; I don’t know the notes (I haven’t checked them above), but it has this ‘green’ sensation throughout the life of the fragrance; it really retains and extends the feeling of being soaked in the scent of freshly cut grass. Very different from the typical fresh lemon-and-nothing citrus; here you feel vibrant green. I have a friend who hates fragrances; in fact, I try not to wear them heavily near him out of respect, but today he told me he liked it; it’s the first time I’ve heard him say that.
It smells old (I’m 28 years old), smells like knee-pain ointment. It’s a super-green but exaggerated scent, with sharp citrus notes and a woody base. If you’re under 35, I don’t recommend it. It’s an informal aroma, not for the office at all, unless you’re in sales or something like that.
Hooray! I just bought the new Loewe format and what a disappointment. This perfume has always been in my home; my parents used it for summer guests who came to bathe and then apply it afterwards. I always wore it because I thought it was brilliant, never missing a beat in my life, though rarely, always for the well-being memories it gave me. But… that’s where we’ve arrived with this version. I’ll use it up until it’s finished (150 ml) and I’ll be at peace while they celebrate. What a rip-off, very bad for Loewe. A terrifying, dry basil opening, nothing more; from there it moves to a middle part where you glimpse a miracle, but no, it ends in lemon and nothing (well, some vetiver, moss, woods…). I won’t fall for these Loewe ones again; I’ve heard so much about how badly they’re doing it and it will be true. At least as far as I know, the disillusionment is tremendous.
As of today, any resemblance is pure fiction. It’s not the same with the new reformulations; that rich scent has remained in memory. A real pity.
For me, the best fragrance, not just from Loewe but from any commercial brand for men. It’s a shame they discontinued it after years of gifting the world something authentic and high-quality. Anyway, decisions that make no sense for the consumer. Sadly, I’m saying goodbye to Loewe for good: the rest of the house’s perfumes don’t even come close.
