Product Description
What does Lalique Pour Homme Equus Eau de Parfum for men smell like?
Equus is part of a collection of three eau de parfums inspired by the hood ornaments created by René Lalique in the 1930s for Bentley and Jaguar. Like its symbol, the wind-crested steed, Lalique's composition is full of airy, untamed, and effervescent freedom. The combination of sparkling citrus fruits, vibrant spices and dry, dry woody notes perfectly captures the spirit of a crazy rush into the unknown, full of unstoppable joy.
Top notes: bergamot, lemon, citron
Heart notes: juniper, cardamom, violet leaf, nutmeg, Brazilian redwood, nutmeg
Base notes: redwood, vetiver, leather, benzoin, amyris, musk
Equus opens with a sparkling, super-fresh combination of lemon and bergamot, creating the olfactory impression of a cold, sparkling drink in which slices of aromatic citrus fruits float. Vibrant spices add zest to this cocktail – spicy cardamom and sharp, exotic nutmeg, whose sharpness is tempered by powdery, earthy violet. A herbal, liqueur-like accent adds depth and a dynamic, impulsive character, seamlessly transitioning into a dry, woody, and savory base based on a combination of resinous redwood, green, bitter vetiver, smoky benzoin, and sensual musk, which warms and smooths the composition's distinctive character. A rough, raw note of leather perfectly balances the woody warmth, adding an intriguing, sophisticated accent.
