  I love it. It’s a classic balsamic fougère from the eighties, delicate and unobtrusive, lacking aggressive masculinity yet making you feel like the boss. Subtle and ethereal, and mind you, that’s no small feat: it lasts eight hours and clings to the neck like a scarf.

  Green fougère. Lavender usually softens and sweetens, but here rosemary and cypress win by a landslide, creating a rough, gritty profile far from what the faint-hearted seek. Citrus at first, but the vegetation makes it astringent and sharp, a sensation that cuts through the nostrils. Then, geranium makes the scent more agreeable and rounded. In dry-down, the green notes, geranium, a light amber, and a highly crafted oakmoss form something exquisite, never sweet but perfectly balanced. It works all year: fresh from the citrus and greens, ideal in spring thanks to the geranium, and very wearable in autumn and winter thanks to the oakmoss and amber. If you think fougère is only for barbershops, this JZ will change your mind.

  Pure green fougère. While lavender usually sweetens such scents, here rosemary and, above all, cypress dominate, giving it a rough, gritty character not for the faint-hearted. It opens citrusy but with a sharp vegetal astringency that cuts the nose. As the citrus fades, geranium softens the blow. In dry-down, the green notes, geranium, a subtle amber, and a highly crafted oakmoss create something beautiful and balanced, never sweet. It wears all year: fresh from the citrus and greens, floral in spring, and perfect for autumn and winter, whether raining or sunny. If you think fougère is only for barbershops, try this JZ.
