About
Gucci Pour Homme II by Gucci is a Woody Spicy fragrance for men. Gucci Pour Homme II was launched in 2007. The nose behind this fragrance is Karine Dubreuil-Sereni. Top notes are Violet Leaf and Bergamot; middle notes are Black Tea, Cinnamon and Pimento; base notes are Tobacco Leaf, Myrrh, Musk and Olive Tree. Four years after Gucci Pour Homme, Gucci launched Gucci Pour Homme II, created by Karine Dubreuil just like the first one. The fragrance has kept the same gorgeous elegant and masculine features of its predecessor, but has become brighter and lighter. The composition opens with fresh notes of violet leaf and bergamot. Very soon the green-fruity opening leaves the space to the spicy notes of the heart: red hot chili pepper Pimento, cinnamon and black tea. The woodsy and elegant violet links it to the base composed of olive tree wood, tobacco leaves, musk and myrtle. The fragrance was created in 2007.
