The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2017, Pour Un Homme de Caron by Caron is an aromatic fougère fragrance for men, crafted by perfumer Richard Fraysse. The composition opens with a fresh and spicy lavender that immediately sets the tone, giving way to a heart of vanilla and powdery notes, which create a warm and inviting atmosphere. The base is anchored by musky and amber accords, adding depth and a subtle sweetness that lingers on the skin.

How to wear it

Apply one to two sprays on pulse points. The fresh spicy top note is vibrant but short-lived; it's the powdery and musky base that lingers throughout the day, making this fragrance ideal for daytime wear.
