L'homme Accompli

L'Homme Accompli is another great masculine offering from this consistently excellent house. Like other Divine masculines, it is nothing groundbreaking, but is a great, high-quality take on its scent profile. HA is a leather scent; its leather note smooth and refined, complemented to perfection by other, well-chosen notes in supporting roles. HA is leather-dominant from initial spray, a suede-like note that is smooth and rich yet lightweight. Some powdery violet joins it up top, a match made in heaven. Some bergamot adds freshness, melding nicely with the leather-violet accord. As it develops, soft, dry woods emerge, melding nicely with the leather, causing HA to become increasingly dry as a result. Some savoury spice complements it nicely. The amber base slowly develops in the background. It is smooth and resinous with a touch of ambergris-esque salt, tying everything together beautifully - a perfect if predictable development of the leather accord. It fades to a dry, woody-musky skin scent. Sillage is moderate and longevity is long-lasting. It is a transeasonal masculine-leaning scent, well-blended and satisfying. A high-quality, utterly elegant take on a leather scent, HA is beautifully-composed and very versatile for a scent of its profile. It is like a more refined Fahrenheit - smooth and realistic-smelling throughout in place of any synthetic harshness. It is impossible to choose a favourite Divine masculine. Excellent. 4.5/5.

I tried this cologne with my husband. He did not understand at all why the perfume needed the smell of shoes, even if they were new and expensive leather shoes. This perfume caused a fit of nostalgia for my childhood. This is exactly how my childhood leather summer sandals and my father's shoes smelled. I imagined an autumn walk in new boots. The background to these shoes in the cologne is very pleasant: it is a watercolor haze, slightly violet. It is impossible to understand whether it is spring or autumn, and a faint aroma of feminine perfume is wafting nearby.

This is such a smooth, well blended leather scent. This I would say is a toned down version of Fahrenheit, but I prefere l'homme accompli. The leather is smooth and a little watery from the violet leaf and with a smooth woody resinous backbone.

I agree with the below review. There's something in Fahrenheit that gives me a headache, maybe the violet leaf, and it's missing in this one. Overall, calmer than Fahrenheit, without the "gasoline" accord.

Very smooth leather, violet and citrus mix. Quite gorgeous and wearable. Accomplished is probably referring to the main leather note, just like a fancy car
