Loewe 001 Man

Loewe’s obligatory entrant into the men’s iris craze originating with Dior Homme. So yes, comparisons will naturally abound. However, this should not be dismissive: all credit to Dior for spawning a genre! And as so many other houses have offered their interpretations of masculine iris fragrances, often with great results, this is no exception. Modern Loewe men’s fragrances have a signature base - I’ve detected it in their Solo, 7, and now 001 lines. It makes the house unique and provides a continuity through all their offerings. I detect it in 001. Atop this base sits a refined spiced iris with a gentle touch of musky woodiness. Carrot seeds are a strange note but I can imagine the scent here- perhaps by force of suggestion- but combined with the ambrette gives this a clean-yet-earthy quality that really works well. This is gentle and refined in character and will suit the office or anyone wanting to smell discreetly well-groomed. If you already have a few iris-forward fragrances this would not be necessary to own, but if you are seeking one, this is a worthy contender! Another lovely offering from Loewe. Edit on longevity- 5 sprays at 9 am Received comment on how good I smelled at 8 pm from someone behind me on the stairs. NOT a bad performer.

I've been low-key obsessed with this fragrance. It is 1000% Unisex, so don't let the "001 Man" turn you off. This one is super under-rated. ...I just got to sample Byredo Gypsy Water (which is quite lovely itself) but it is comical to me how much better Loewe 001 Man is, compared to Gypsy Water. They are very similar. 001 Man has a better, brighter citrus opening. It's not too sharp though at all. I'm not exactly a citrus person, but it's fragrances like these that make me crave these citrus notes. It's addictive. And the drydown is so similar to Gypsy Water, but it is definitely stronger and lasts longer on the skin. Starting to really see how some fragrances/brands are over-hyped, while others aren't even looked at. Which is such a shame. Probably due to (Loewe's) marketing and PR not being up to snuff with others (Byredo's)... Also want to say how impressed I am by Loewe 001 Woman, which definitely is more feminine. It is a creamy sweetened white floral. It reminds me of something similar Blanche Bete (another hyped fragrance right now). Loewe 001 Woman is the one renting space in my head though - not Blanche Bete!. Both are beautiful though, not dupes, but just in the same family of fragrances.

Loewe 001 Man by Loewe comes across as a soft, woody, powdery scent with a strong musky iris feel. I mainly pick up cardamom, vetiver, and especially violet, with the violet standing out the most and giving it that smooth, slightly airy elegance. It is clean, but not your typical Aventus or Bleu de Chanel type of clean. This is more refined, less repetitive, and feels more natural and composed rather than loud or attention seeking. Performance is good. I actually enjoy how it performs, especially considering it did not disappoint me in Omani summer heat. It holds up well while still keeping that soft, close and elegant presence. This fragrance is not trying too hard, but it still feels unique. It has that effortless quality to it. It reminds me of clean summer days, like stepping out of the shower after a morning swim, wearing fresh linens. There is something very classic and comforting about it. Overall, a musky, iris leaning, woody powdery scent that is clean, refined, and signature scent worthy. This is one I keep coming back to and re buying

KI find many Iris centred scents are "remindful" of DIORHomme...hmmm should we begin clicking aqcua di bergamotto and argumi amari di sicilia everytime we smell bergamot??! Come on people... If anything this is parts of CK Man with some Shiseido ZEN for Men with a slight dusting of Dior Homme's sexy powdery floral-tilted masculinity. Just got my double box 001 Man & 001 Woman out of storage and wore it all day (seven spritzes, two on clothing) and seven hours later was refreshed by reapplying before heading out for a dinner. That four sample sprays kept me pleasantly scented, and when others got close the compliments came, until bedtime. I have yet to layer these two but my mom smelled heavenly wafting Woman with it's cozy sensual Jasmin vanilla frosting over the same DNA as Man (bergamot, sandalwood and white musk). At retail I would say "probably not" but for he price beauty encounter has this listed...perhaps. Smell swell and be well. More later... GP xox

True everyday wear perfection. Quickly bumped Alto Astral from signature to evening scent (they are not similar). The opening of 001 EDP is a lightly sparkling bergamot, lasts a few mouth watering moments, then the powdery, earthy Ambrette, blonde woods, skin musks and violet unfolds. Dry down is your skin but better, tinged with a sheer amber (not the sugary or too synthetic kind). Niche quality for a very good price. A timeless, natural and chic number that could be enjoyed by anyone and likely wouldn’t offend anyone. Haven’t tried it throughout the year yet, but I don’t see why it couldn’t be worn anytime. It’s ‘clean’ without being boring or ‘white musky’. Can’t speak to longevity just yet, but the sillage is polite, which is ideal for everyday wear I’d say. In a room filled with attention grabbing, cloyingly sweet ambrox bombs, this stands out. Will need to be sure of longevity (not sillage) before giving a final mark, but could be a perfect 10.

I love it. A slightly sweet and woody powder bomb in the vane of Prada Cargo de Nuit, Prada Luna Rossa Black, Mugler Oriental Express, Midnight in Paris Van Cleef & Arpels and Black Bvlgari. The outstanding notes are the carrot seeds and ambrette. There is a subtle cumin-like accord or note that I wish was not there but it is subtle and it is not strong enough to create a "BO" smell. It dies out after about 5-10 minutes. I would describe the mid and dry down as creamy and butter smooth, lead by sandalwood and ambrette. Longevity and projection seem about average to me. This is right up my alley, and much more affordable and obtainable than most of the fragrances I mentioned above. A definite love for me. I would say it is a safe blind buy if you already know you like powdery fragrances like Prada Luna Rossa Black.

This is an A+ fragrance for any man. It is complex and simple at the same time. It basically takes something “B grade” like Calvin Klein Obsession, and then elevates it to the niche level. Loewe 001 Man is not a beast mode, but an everyday mode fragrance. It will still get noticed, and it does smell like men’s cologne. So, don’t think that this is one of those low key “under the radar” kind of fragrances. The beauty of 001 Man is that it is a double edged sword. It can be refined and classy enough to be business polite (if you go light on the sprays), and at the same time it has enough appeal to be romantic. You can wear this when you go about your day with the confidence that you can stand tall and turn on the charm at will.

Returning for review #2 because I love this so much. It’s my signature scent. A ‘white t-shirt’ all-rounder that isn’t boring. I don’t know how iris isn’t listed, it’s definitely primarily a carrot seed - bergamot - cardamom - iris - sandalwood - ambrette mix. So chic and I always get compliments. Perfect sillage and longevity. It’s not a necessarily a distinctive / instantly recognisable profile, but it’s done so so well. Could easily be £300+ a bottle for the quality. I don’t often say this, but an elixir iteration of this one would be awesome. Very unisex. Not gatekeeping because I want people to buy it so it doesn’t get discontinued haha.

Imagine more woody version of Prada Infusion d'Homme. I get a comparison to Dior Homme original, but for me it's a stretch, there are some similarities, but Loewe 001 is not a clone. Loewe has a woody, musky (ambrette) background which for me is sooo beautiful. I was hooked immediately! I would say this could be a good substitute for Celine Bois Dormant wich is much more expensive. Quality is top notch.

60% woody Notes 30% powdry Notse 10% cardamom Its very nice and masculine fragrance. 8/10 ........ عطر بدی نیست یه شروع مرکباتی و خنک در تاپ نوت (شبیه لیموی برش خورده) که به مرور به یه رایحه گرم چوبی_پودری تبدیل میشه. رایحه هل هم در پس زمینه وجود داره که زیبایی کار رو دو چندان میکنه شباهت بسیار زیادی با Dior homme و D600 carner barcelona داره 60% روایح چوبی 30% نوت پودری 10% هل

Warm, musky, soft, airy, welcoming, elegant, non-offensive, beautiful, versatile in all seasons and occasions, high quality, natural-smelling, powdery, grey-like. Definitely quality like other fragrances from LVMH. I can see how this scent could be similar to Dior Homme. If Dior Homme leans more masculine, this leans more androgynous. I love it.

Really nice scent. Reminds me a lot of Dior Homme. Creamy and floral, slightly woody and powdery. Violet, Cardamom and Cypress are the notes that stand out in this fragrance. Very versatile, wearable all year round and by all ages. Decent sillage and longevity. Contemporary, clean and elegant. Another winner by Loewe.

I am so happy I found this, for me it’s up there in versatility with the likes of Sauvage and Bleu de Chanel..... different of course but so nice that I just want to smell it all day.... lasts 4-6 hours on my skin, projection is the only downside but I don’t care I like it that much... it’s my new signature scent.

I was in their boutique playing around with the fragrances, and this one stopped me right in my tracks. Soft citrusy-powdery scent that dries down into a mellow, creamy and musky woody undertones. Understated elegance bottled in a perfume.

Smells like wood, citrus, and a hint of carrots. Very pleasant. Also pretty versatile in the coldish months. Frank Ocean allegedly likes the female version of this perfume, so if it’s good enough for him, then it’s good enough for me.

This one is so good that I had to have a bottle. It's similar to Dior homme Intense but in a different way that is not redundant. Perfect for romantic situations.

This is perfect for work. Elegant but low profile and my partner loves the smell. More of a fall/winter fragance in my opinion. I have the Eau de Parfum version.

What a beautiful scent. Very long lasting. A real compliment getter. Mix Reflection man with Darley and Dior homme

I love this smell after 30 min,its elegant, good quality and long lasting. Many compliments received
