Bottega Veneta Pour Homme Parfum

EDIT Although i feel like i left a decent review, i've got to come back and add. So here it goes: Things that this scent is: Strong Deep, resinous green Woods/Leather Old school vibes Modern For cool weather unique deep dark Things that it isnt: Sweet subtle repetitive unisex I've got to say - no matter the source - this could very well be the top winter scent in existence (for those who like the strong masculine, retro, heavy leather/green vibes). I have so much respect for this house for releasing this scent. Take a look at the best sellers in 2017 - dylan blue, invictus aqua, sauvage, BDC - this has simply no resemblance to any of those scents. What a refreshing change of pace. I hope bottega veneta continues to march to their own drum beat! END EDIT I too bought this based on the review. What can I say? She’s hot. Now that that’s out of the way - I remember purchasing the original Bottega Veneta when it first hit shelves. I remember liking it at the time - but not loving it. I have since lost the bottle (how does that even happen?) - so I figured “what the hell?” This is a strong - fir resin dominant scent. This is without question a masculine scent. It has an old school vibe to it - which is intriguing. And while yes, it may pay homage to the OG’s from the 80’s, this is by no means an old school scent. This is deep - dark and full of character. It’s actually a shame that this sucker has been out for a year - with little to no recognition. Instead we look at 1 million lucky - and the like. This shit is the real deal. This is a statement - and a very good smelling statement. The leather and deep greens make for a wonderful experience. Frankly, I think this is one of the best releases over the last 3 years. You won’t get the sweet sauvage/Dylan blue/invictus bullshit out of this one. Instead, you get pure, raw heat. 8/10

This fragrance is one of those personal treasures I truly savor — both the scent itself and the vivid imagery it evokes. I've only reached for it sporadically over the past couple of years, but this week I decided to wear it consecutively for several days straight. What I've discovered is that it's ultimately a scent designed purely for my own quiet enjoyment: those subtle, intimate wafts that catch me off guard throughout the day and bring a sense of calm contentment. Even on the third day, with my nose fully acclimated, it continues to unfold in surprising new layers, revealing fresh nuances I hadn't noticed before. At its core, it transports me straight into a mature, evergreen forest — think deep, resinous green cypress trees standing tall in crisp winter air — while simultaneously wrapping me in the cozy, enveloping warmth of a well-worn leather sofa by a fire. It's that perfect balance of crisp, woody freshness and rich, comforting leather that feels timeless and deeply personal. A scent that doesn't demand attention but rewards those stolen moments of self-indulgence. Highly appreciated for its introspective, grounding vibe.

I tried this juice 2x and found myself enjoying the aromatic smooth powdery vib with a slight leather blend. The leather note is very linear making this juice more mainstream not that outdoorsy pungent smell. Tonka bean and pine needles gives it a sweet green blend. Mingling amongst all the other notes is a woodsy vib adding to the dark smooth aroma. Longevity is decent being a (Parfum?)...I found a lot of fragrance these days calling their juice EDP vs EDT more for marketing purposes.Silage is moderate overall. Finally, I bought this juice because it's not over bearing yet it's not too mainstream. The aroma and quality of this fragrance is closer to a niche fragrance. Price is excellent...7.5/10

To me this is a 75%/25% mix of Fan Di Fendi absoluto and Enrico Coveri pour homme. I know the Fendi has oud in it and this doesn't but the dry down of the Bottega comes so close to the Fendi. The opening instantly reminds me of the Coveri, just denser because of the use of fir resin rather than pine. It lasts on me about 8hrs and besides the initial blast the projection quickly turns into a close nice scent bubble. I'm interested to layer this with the Fendi and maybe even with the Coveri, all three just like blast lol. Unfortunately all the of these are discontinued All in all its a lovely masculine scent. 8/10 50ml bottles available from fragrancebuy right now.

Oh man i fell in love with this fragrance! i wont lie, when i first smelled it out of my small decant i didnt like it but with more testing it grew on me. I started noticing the tonka bean which is very prominent in this scent and i like that, most leather scents are too harsh and dry, this on the other hand is so well balanced that it retains that strong leather scent mixed very well with the Cardamon.On my skin it lasts forever,i applied it on my skin before going to bed and when i woke up the next morning that smokey sweet leathery smell was still on me.I will save every penny for a bottle of this juice because it is awesome and worth the price. 10 out of 10.
