Fragrance of intense notes with a classic style… An aroma that makes me feel like a king when I apply it. Cinnamon, citrus, tonka bean, clove, rose, and that cardamom. Breathtaking.
Another great creation by Annick Menardo, just like Roma, my go-to fragrance. A masterpiece, nothing more to add.
Hello @jerry drake, thanks for your contribution, I am totally in agreement. What I wrote are general opinions, not my personal taste, as I already clarified. I highlight two points: the olfactory journey, that personal learning of smelling with attention and sometimes with help, to notice notes, quality, and the soul of the fragrance. There are perfumes I used to almost give away years ago because I did not like them, but over time I learned to enjoy them. The other topic is age; with this Boucheron Jaipur and the Bentley For Men Intense, I have only seen that they are liked by people aged 45 to 70 with olfactory training. I will do that survey in reverse and send it to you privately. I greatly appreciate your reviews and those of other forum members for the clarity of their concepts; by the rules I can only write to them privately. Best regards and thanks, everything adds up.
@Leonardo da Vincho, dear: imagine that young people are bombarded daily with false advertising from major fashion and technology brands. The constant attack of aggressive ads and impactful photos from multinationals makes products seem almost identical. It is normal that they try to conquer new generations with easy designs. A fragrance like Jaipur is a mysterious and chaotic universe, something difficult and intimidating at first. To understand it, one must travel an olfactory journey, smell, interpret, and perceive with the heart and the head. That can only be achieved with time, passion, and stepping out of modern perfumery schemes. It would be interesting to do that reverse test with people over 40. It is always a pleasure to read your reviews, best regards.
This review will be ‘anti-balloons’ and I know that many forum companions I follow and admire will not like it or will disagree, but I respect their opinions. As my job involves much contact with people, I conducted a survey on centennials and millennials (young people aged 17 to 28). I applied Jaipur on one arm (batch 2003, well preserved in a dark box and fresh) and on the other Sauvage EDT 2015. I will not describe the Jaipur as there are many excellent reviews, I just say it has a delicious cinnamon that, after 20 minutes, mixes with tonka bean and cardamom to be one of my most pleasant and elegant fragrances. I asked them to lower their face masks and ask which they liked more: the result was 18 or 19 to zero in favour of Dior Sauvage. When I asked them what Jaipur smelled like, they said ‘older person’ and some said ‘elderly’. I clarify that I prefer Jaipur, but I am already over 50. Longevity was similar, although Sauvage’s trail was greater, perhaps due to the age of my batch. A bit disappointed, I analysed several things. I compared perfumery with fashion: what seemed super-elegant 20 or 30 years ago is now outdated, although of excellent quality. I thought about that dynamism of tastes and how the target audience of brands changes and renews itself, which implies an important change in trends. We always complain about strategies from companies like Dior, Chanel, or Bvlgari, but perhaps it is just to survive and win. What I do not forgive is when they reformulate and it smells the same but is alcoholic and watery, with poor performance and dilution of components, maintaining the price: a pseudo-scam. My humble contribution with this mini survey (I still prefer Jaipur, a classic jewel) and respectful greetings.
Does anyone know when it was reformulated? They say the first formula was from 1998 to approx. 2009… I saw an EDT from 2011 with a 9-digit batch, and I have a decant from 2002 with a 4-digit batch, for which I owe a thousand thanks to Leonardo da Vincho for knowing it in its first version. It drives me crazy, it is wonderful. I like everything: opening, evolution, and development. It has an air of other eras, but I would love to find a man who smells like this (although to be honest, I would love to use it myself; in fact, I bought an Amouage Fate Woman tester at a ridiculous price because some voted for a similarity, and if the cinnamon in Fate has anything to do with that in Jaipur, I am more than satisfied). In the opening, it has something orange-ambered that reminds me of Kaiak Aventura, the masc from Natura (one of my all-time favourite masculine fragrances), but they are not the same, they only share a trait. After a while, I see that Obsessed Intense Fem by Calvin Klein has muuucho in common with this vintage Jaipur. The CK one does not have spices or cinnamon, so they are not the same, but it does share a very similar green accord, although less delicate and refined. I just want to add that it was very interesting to clearly identify the cinnamon note here: a woody, warm, and dry cinnamon (very similar to that in Kenzo Jungle Tiger), so different from other fruitier, tinkling, and fresher expressions, like in Shiraz, Feminité du Bois, or Essential Supreme.
Sad reality: mediocrities like Sauvage or Bleu dominate today, leaving no space for masterpieces like Jaipur, Opium, or Egoiste.
I received the 2011 version tomorrow and ‘caracho!’ I did not expect something so different from the 2002. This new formula is much sweeter and warmer, losing almost all that fresh-resinous touch that, along with the Jaipur DNA, used to blow my mind. The 2002 opens more citrusy, more ‘orange’, and generally cannot be called ‘sweet’. The opening of the 2011 reminds me a bit of the greener-vanilla batches of Le Male… They share the heart, but I feel the 2011 was updated (besides regulations and raw materials, they gave it a more fashionable touch of the time) and moved away from that ‘period’ imprint – because although it came out in 1998, it smells like a cologne from the 70s-80s (and we love it like that!). Definitely, the votes for similarity with Amouage Fate go to this new formula, because the 2002 does not resemble Amouage at all. It is only a similarity in general warmth, as the Jaipur 2011 and Fate are not very similar either. Comparatively, the longevity of the 2011 is half that of the 2002, but the projection seems to be roughly the same, both quite soft. What is going to be! I suppose I will begin a patient search for a Jaipur from the two-thousands. PS: the box of the 2011 says ‘INTERPARFUMS’ as manufacturer, in case it helps anyone… 9-digit batch: number-number-letter-number-number-letter-number-number-number. I have no more data on the 2002, I will consult with the owner of the bottle who gave me the decant.
Jaipur is the most difficult fragrance on the market labelled ‘Pour Homme’. It is even more controversial than Kouros because many men do not feel identified with this aroma, yet it generates immense satisfaction when smelled due to its sweetness, magic, and unparalleled elegance. It has good longevity and deserves to be worn again and again until you get used to it. It is one of the few designer fragrances I can say possess a magic unlike any other. Its downside is that it is hard to wear; you must be very elegant or at least casually chic. It is a bomb of spices and flowers that could easily fit into the niche category. Perfectly unisex, and I own the limited edition from Parfums de Joaillier.
It opens with an ‘old-school’ scent, a citrus chaos with cinnamon and clove that smells like an older lady and baby powder. After 15 minutes, the magic begins and it settles into vanilla with spices. That feminine touch is exactly what makes it sexy. Once stabilised, it reminds me of Le Male or Cuba Gold, but without the lavender. If you apply it sparingly, it works well on cool summer evenings. Totally recommended if you want to give Le Male a more oriental twist.
The king of perfumes. Although I have the Eau de Parfum version, I believe it is one of my must-haves and I would always buy it. It has such a unique and oriental opening that there’s no better name than Jaipur… the spicy cardamom combines with fresh, resinous bergamot, then cinnamon, tonka bean similar to vanilla but creamier, and cedar gives it a woody touch. It invites you to meditate in some Hindu temple, the solemnity of a scent that makes you think how beautiful and simple life is in other parts of the world.
Buy it while you can! A gem of perfumery!
A proper spicy oriental. It has floral touches, but on my nose, cardamom, cinnamon, patchouli, and cedar predominate, resting on a somewhat weak vanilla. Regarding longevity and sillage, I read wonders about the vintage version, but I’ve had to experience Jaipur with the current batches and still liked it. I imagine those past formulations must have been a bomb. Now it meets the current standard of ‘all moderate’. As for wearability, I find it more suitable for cold climates and it is extremely unisex, so as an alternative, I recommend Kenzo’s ‘Jungle L’elephant’, which I consider quite superior. They don’t smell too similar, but the idea of strong exotic oriental is there. Perhaps that’s the true spicy bomb many are looking for in Jaipur. If you liked the Boucheron one, I think the Kenzo ‘version’ is a must-try. All this, without diminishing Annick Menardo’s work, whose creations are always as exquisite as they are memorable.
This perfume is clearly well-constructed, projects well, and lasts about six hours. It’s not a modern scent; it requires semi-formal attire. Women don’t like it much because it is very spicy.
Undoubtedly good. The opening is absolutely striking and opulent. In this phase, I imagine one of those gangsters from the 1920s, from working-class Chicago neighbourhoods who, once at the top, are impeccably dressed, groomed, and perfumed. Then it develops, but what has most caught my attention is that I smell vanilla, and apparently it’s not among the components. I smell it from left and right and can’t get enough. Regardless, it has a glorious and richly nuanced base. It has class. I agree it is perfectly unisex. I don’t see it as a modern fragrance, but personally that’s not so important and quite relative. I recommend trying it.
I call it the fragrance of indifference. There is no one in my circle, men or women, who is seduced by this scent, yet I consider it a gem. Yes, it is warm and spicy, not easy for a nose accustomed to fashionable perfumes, but beyond that, I love wearing it regardless of whether others like it. It doesn’t bother people like others do; rather, it’s not a scent they would want to wear themselves. I don’t recommend buying it blind or for romantic dates, but I guarantee it will attract attention in some way. It is elegant, sophisticated, and extravagant.
Batch 2001. I tried it in-store, it didn’t quite convince me, but I had faith and bought it. I can’t stop smelling it; it’s frankly addictive. It smells timeless and exotic, transporting you to the Hawa Mahal, the palace that inspired the bottle in Rajasthan, India (hence the name). At first sniff, it might seem unisex, but it evolves beautifully into a very sensual scent. It is complete elegance, an oriental by definition. It could have been Rudyard Kipling’s signature fragrance. I should have known it sooner; it’s a genuine delight. It’s not for everyone, as @svazquez7 said: you don’t choose to wear it, the perfume chooses you.
I’ll just say this: it wears like a Tom Ford floral on my skin. The citrus notes everyone mentions aren’t noticeable on me (and I’m grateful), there are flowers, opulence, and undeclared vanillas. It has the perfect balance between fresh and sweet. With this fragrance, I can’t stop smelling it; it brings back memories I don’t even have. I recommend trying it, even blind.
I bought it blind, guided only by the notes, and I must say, I loved it. I’m a woman and this perfume is extremely unisex, very similar to Guerlain’s Shalimar. It has excellent longevity and here it is much more affordable than the original (which I also own). It’s a fantastic alternative for all budgets and for both sexes.
It’s a bloody gem, absolutely spectacular!
How on earth can one compare Pi, Halloween Man, Shalimar to Jaipur, please!!!! Those people suffer from anosmia, there is no other explanation.
What a great perfume. It’s like shaving foam, soapy and sweet. It has presence, intensity and good longevity. Unlike 95% of current fragrances, Jaipur Homme is a true example of how a perfume should be made. A masterpiece.
What a treat. I want it. This in cold weather must be tremendous… I note it as incense-like and warm. It reminds me of Opium, although Jaipur seems less clerical. What peace.
A perfume with everything a good perfume should have. As the saying goes, to each their own; I love it. Don’t buy blindly, but try it on your skin and let it develop. A must-have for collectors. A soft fragrance, spicy oriental. Long-lasting with non-intrusive projection. Acceptable price for what it offers.
They gave it to me and at first I thought it was boring. Then, months later, I wore it a little and couldn’t take my nose off my wrist. It’s a very well-balanced cinnamon that has a sparkling sensation that you never get tired of.
Jaipur briefly reminds me of its cousin Boucheron Pour Homme due to the citrus notes, although only for a few seconds. Then it evolves into something completely different. Being an EDT and in this era where perfumes don’t last, it has excellent longevity; I put it on eight hours ago and I can still smell it. I think the star note is the cinnamon, which makes it unique. It is truly vintage, from another era, but totally wearable today. To my nose, it smells properly unisex.
Too feminine for my taste; I finished it by gifting it to a friend who absolutely loved it.
Honouring its name, JaÏpur; an Indian inspiration where spices, clove, cardamom and cinnamon blend on my skin. A warm, elegant aroma with great projection and a vintage style. Recommended for bold men with personality who love spices.
Although it is warm, on my skin it stays very light and fresh. At first it tingles a bit with the cinnamon and lime, very masculine notes, but it softens quickly until settling into a green, spiced cinnamon thanks to a very realistic clove. Despite being fresh, the benzoin and tonka give it a powdery and warm touch. It has strong projection (until it tickles my nose) for a few hours, then stays close to the skin for another six. I loved it. Although the first minutes are very masculine, I see it as unisex. It reminds me of Black by Bvlgari, no wonder, same creator and year. I see it for fresh spring and autumn days, with a vintage touch that distinguishes it from current trends without being modern. Pleasant: 7/10 Interesting: 7/10 Versatile: 7/10 Original: 7/10
Smells like the 90s; I don’t know what it is but it transports me to those golden times. Sweet, elegant, spiced and classic… it brings to mind the 1998 World Cup, Mark Morrison, the Backstreet Boys, school and Beverly Hills. God bless the 90s!
My first impression of the opening was Armani Eau pour Homme, the new version, mixed with Le Male, before moving to a dry down totally similar to Le Male. Citrus-sweet opening to move to sweet, slightly citrusy and talc-like. But the second and third time I applied it, I started to feel it as totally unique. Maybe something similar to Armani Code, especially the A-List. It is like a cinnamon dessert. Really a delicious, comfortable and magnetic scent. If you use fragrances to please, with this you will have compliments from women of all ages, 100% guaranteed. My girlfriend, for example, loves it. It reminds her of a baby perfume smell and every time I wear it she sticks to my neck inhaling it strongly. She is 25 years old (the same age as this perfume) so those who worry too much about it smelling ‘too mature’ to wear it, I would say can rest easy. Incredible longevity. Incredible and unique fragrance, recommended to keep even in replacement bottles. In winter is when it shines, both the EDT and EDP versions (in the EDT the citrus notes stand out a bit more), but this delight can be worn quietly in any season and at any time. A wonder and one of my favourites in my modest collection. 10/10 😍
I suggest testing it on the skin. It seemed to be one of those that lose a lot of charm if tested only on paper.
Jaïpur Homme EDT: Opening: A very aromatic citrus and floral opening. Heart: Very quickly the citrus and flowers give way to a spicy combination where cinnamon predominates. Dry down: The final dry down is defined by a fragrant cinnamon accompanied by benzoin, a tonka bean that adds a touch of cleanliness, and cedar that adds seriousness and maturity to close the ensemble. Projection and Longevity: Its projection is around 6 hours, its longevity sits around 10-12 hours. Conclusion: A journey to a spice market in India, where a creamy and imposing cinnamon dominates the ensemble, with the other spices and woods providing that rich and pleasant oriental background. It is a fragrance in the old style (I would say to use from the age of 30 onwards), as while it is slightly sweet (to the extent that is appropriate), it avoids the vanillas and caramels that many current fragrances use, which are more focused on pleasing everyone rather than having personality. Its trail and longevity are quite notable in cold weather, so I do not recommend its use on hot days or in enclosed spaces (it is very invasive under these conditions).
What a wonderful fragrance!! I find it tedious to describe the notes; I can only say it is a sublime scent, soft and balsamic spices so perfectly blended that they transform it into a delicious smell, very addictive, tender and sensual at the same time! Impossible for anyone to dislike it!
I feel so blunt with a fragrance that has so much hype, but we are facing a genuine marketing campaign to sell an unmistakably feminine fragrance to a male audience.
Jaipur is a lovely, very cosy fragrance with a beautiful evolution. It has excellent longevity on the skin and lasts a couple of days on clothes. I recommend testing it before buying, as there are similar scents that remind you of what you already own. That was the reason I decided to remove it from my collection.
I like it more and more. I bought it online at a fantastic price (in department stores in Peru it usually costs over $70, I found it for less than half that) and I must confess that at first it didn’t impress me at all, so I left it at the bottom of the wardrobe. However, during this cold winter, I decided to give it another chance and it seems like a beautiful fragrance. It is far more complex than I remembered. The balance between its citrus and powdery notes is delicious. It is elegant and ‘luminous’, almost energetic, a good ingredient to finish waking up on a cold winter morning. I see some comment that it is very feminine, or at least unisex. I think they have a point, but delving into the world of perfumes also implies questioning such fixed canons or moulds. In the end, it is about wearing something you enjoy. Those of us who collect these small pieces of art can find pleasure in having a plurality of aromas, and personally I find satisfaction in that not all the scents in my collection repeat the same concept of masculinity. This perfume allows that; it is a way of stepping out of that box a little. I like having it, I like how it clashes with the typically masculine aromas that predominate in my collection.
I feel it lacks something, perhaps a touch of orange blossom or vanilla to give it body and make it heavier for cold days, like leather. Or maybe a bright citrus note with something to add freshness, turning it into a summer scent.
I absolutely love that it smells 100% like soap; it turns my head. It bears a striking resemblance to Magno gel.
Enough preamble, let’s get to the point: it smells like that classic Magno gel but more refined and unisex. Do I like it? Yes, but not enough to wear it myself.
