Lomani pour Homme

Let me start this review by saying that, even when I purchased this, I had no idea what I was getting into. All I knew at the time was I had a $7 off $30 coupon at the CVS where I got this, and Boucheron Quatre was on clearance for $16.49, and both Lomani pour Homme and White Intense were both $7.99. This gave me the dollar amount I needed to use that coupon (and another $5 one) to bring the total for all three down to just over $20. Not too bad, even if all they turned out to be were bathroom sprays. I opened the Boucheron first, and you can see my review on that on its page. Lomani White Intense was next to be opened and I guess it was so unmemorable; I didn't even bother writing anything on it. Today, I opened Lomani Pour Homme. Let me be clear, after I purchased this, is when I discovered Drakkar Noir, and opened it prior to Lomani, thus discovering how much I enjoyed it. Upon seeing its similarity to Lomani, I anxiously awaited the day I opened it to see how it compared. Well, today was that day, and boy was it close. I sprayed both on, one spritz on each arm. It's safe to say you can instantly smell the similarities (and differences). The Lomani seems to take the sharpest notes from Drakkar to make the opening pop, whereas Drakkar keeps going with mint to cool and basil for some subtle sweetness. As it begins to dry down, the differences slowly start to disappear. However, while both project about the same, Drakkar seems to have a slight edge on longevity. Something is always lost in translation, and sometimes it's glaringly apparent, while other times it isn't. Lomani managed to create a 7/8ths version of Drakkar for about half the price. Only if they're side by side can you really spot the differences. One thing both of these did equally well was introduce me to two 80's "barbershop" fragrances I love. Previous attempts have failed miserably, or maybe, they didn't. Maybe tastes evolve. Maybe if I went back and smelled what once didn't appeal to me (I'm looking at you, Paco Rabanne), I'd have a different opinion today when I just turned 40, than I did 8 years ago when I wore it barely into my 30's. Or maybe, the newer ones just do it better than others before them. Looking at all these fragrance pages, one thing that's a rather funny coincidence, though, is at the time I am writing this, Lomani Pour Homme, Drakkar Noir, and Paco Rabanne Pour Homme, all have the same exact rating (3.98). Maybe we really don't know what we are smelling. Maybe the differences are so negligible, it doesn't really matter. As long as you love wearing it, who cares? 9/10

This is not a dupe of Drakkar. If you want a dupe of Drakkar, buy Al-Rehab Dakar, which you can get for $7 on Amazon, lasts longer and smells like the vintage stuff. I love that stuff, with all of its sharp, bitter notes and macho 80's swagger. Lomani, however, is a different animal. Much brighter top, much lighter and smoother overall. This is the "Night at the Symphony" to Drakkar's "Night at the Swinger's Club circa 1986". The comparison to Caesar's Man is much closer, and unless you can get vintage Caesar's, this destroys the new stuff in longevity. Having said this, if you are the kind of person who has 10 or fewer fragrances and you already have Drakkar/Dakar, you may not need this, as either of those will check the "fougere" category box. But if you are like me, for whom fougeres are a favorite category, this is a worthy addition, especially for $10. I have tried and loved many fougeres, and have given away or sold many others, but this one is a keeper. It is on the gentle, aromatic side of fougeres, semi-barbershop, a bit more modern smelling than Paco Rabanne or Azzaro; better than Perry Ellis Portfolio Elite or Dunhill X-Centric. Still masculine, but classier. There are also several notes here that I smelled that are not listed. Turns out that other websites list some of those, including tangerine, coriander (lemony-herbal), juniper (which plays a major role in keeping this "fresh" and giving a pine accord), and a clean vetiver. We are all creatures open to influence, but most reviews below didn't pick up on any of these, and these are the very notes, plus a muted kind of incense and woods notes in the drydown, that distinguish it from DN. This would have been considered quite "modern" when it was introduced, lacking the classic carnation, easier on the clove, with increased woods and vetiver. Fougere lovers should just buy this - you will have no regrets

I agree with the reviewers below- this fragrance is so underrated. Yes presentation is poor and not so appealing, which I believe is why so many people will not consider it purchase worthy. Yet the scent itself and the price can quickly change any customer's mind. Yes there are similarities with Drakkar Noir, but they are not the same. Suitable for any season, and any part of the day, inoffensive and very pleasant. This is the only fragrance I own that last longer on skin than on my clothes. I could describe it as cheeky because on my clothes the staying power is about 2-3 hours, but on my skin it lasts all day. There were many occasions that I thought it is gone but with any physical activity, is surprisingly back, creating a pleasing aura or a scent bubble that was lingering around me 7-8 hours after application. If we take the scent and place it into a Versace, D&G or other big fashion brand name bottle, it will sell for $50 to $60 AUD easily and be named a masterpiece..... I have to admit, this is my most reached out frag and is so easy to wear. The lady at my local chemist broke my heart as she told me I am not the only customer who buys 5-6 bottles at once, and there are other crazy hoarders thinking its a shower gel ;) he he. Just go get one it is great

I love this fragrance, light and a great casual wear. It’s masculine and does indeed have that spicy soap profile of Drakkar. Key here being it is more in line with an aftershave, much more airy on application with the dry down being a skin scent. The description of old shaving memories is well suited, a classic barbershop kind of profile. I am not really sure how it has come to the point where scent profiles don’t get appreciated. Labels like cheap, old man are odd, considering how expensive scents can be easily just as offensive as the cheap ones. For eight bucks Canadian, I am pretty much thrilled by this scent, and the presentation is surprisingly good, lots of detail even in the box. The spray nozzle isn’t even crap compared to what you get from other brands, even Drakkar pales compared to this “inspired” take. I enjoy wearing older scent profiles, I find them quite nostalgic and enjoyable in the world of Maple Bacon Musk profiles. If you like a classic shaving routine, grand dads safety razor, then for Father’s Day grab yourself a bottle of this and enjoy an inexpensive trip with our male role models of the past.

This is a real unsung hero in older style mens scents. It's fresh, masculine and reassuringly recognisable. Lavender, citruses, florals with aromatics and a gentle spiciness, absolutely nothing here to complain about at all. On top of that, I picked it up for about £10 GBP, Mental! It doesn't feel dated but I'm a guy just into middle age. Lol 😆. It just feels timeless and like a clean, well kept man. Solid performance, surprisingly so given the pittance paid. Sillage and longevity are decent, performing on par with plenty of today's offerings that are apparently EDPs and more. Even if you do feel it's a little underpowered (you won't), it's so cost effective that you can over spray or reapply, or both actually! It's the sort of scent that a man with kids, mortgage and a half decent job would be happy to wear, but just as at home on a well dressed guy popping out for a bite to eat. Obviously office safe, also great whilst at and after the gym. I'll say it again, this is an absolute no brainer for £10 approx. Performance, great profile and aromatically fresh. Do your self a favour and discover a little gem.

Two words ... Irish Spring! Take a bar of Irish Spring soap and set it next to Lomani Pour Homme. Do a scent comparison. You will be looking at close to 80% - 90% in similarity. Distinct notes are hard to pull out of this DNA. The main note people on Fragrantica are getting is lavender. Frankly, I don't smell one single bit of lavender. Lavender is very distinct, and it's not in Irish Spring; that's for sure! Maybe a combo of moss, patch, and citrus, but regardless, this one's a winner! I love this stuff! 3.4 oz for $5? You can't lose! Projection - 6/10 Sillage - 7/10 Longevity - 7/10 Fragrance - 8/10 Compliments - 7/10 Seasons - All year, but geared towards spring and summer Time - Day or night Lomani Pour Homme was such a pleasant surprise! This is definitely a frequent go-to for me, especially in the Spring and Summer months. Clean and fresh and never cloying or offensive!

My bottle has been in my possession less than two months. Sprayed it on today at 3PM and can still smell it plain as day at 8:45PM. Went heavy (it’s 8 bucks) and did also apply on clothes. Not sure about projection, but it’s in my scent bubble. I wear this for me, and again...EIGHT BUCKS!? If you like classic profiles this one is solid, better than TAXI that I was lead to believe was really good, but in my case not so much. NOTE: My two month reference has nothing to do with aging or “maceration” I was simply indicating that it is a brand new bottle of the current “weak” formulation, which I find pretty solid. Just wanted to make that clear in case I inadvertently caused confusion. Honestly don’t even think I had the bottle much more than a month.

I tested both this and the current formulation of Drakkar Noir on each hand at a local discount chemist and preferred Lomani PH from initial spray to dry down hours later. In fact, Lomani PH lingered on the skin longer than Drakkar Noir which had disappeared some time earlier. Perhaps vintage Drakkar was better in its day, but right now Lomani PH offers more in terms of affordability, performance and in my humble opinion the scent itself. For the $10 AUD that it is readily available for, I can't fault what it offers. A fresh, clean scent with reasonable performance that is perfect for running errands, the gym or even just around the house. One of those no-regret purchases because of the absurd price making it an extremely safe blind buy.

Great no nonsense gents scent. Notes as listed and £12 on Amazon U.K. and even less elsewhere. I would wear this at any time of day or season. I bought this to see if it’s similar to Bowling Green. It is, but not as bright and minus the clove note. Lasts on the skin a lot longer than Bowling Green. I really like this. I will be discussing this live on my channel “People’s Scents” with Matt, the “Bargain Finder General” in due course. We make videos because we love the hobby and we’re not in it to compete with others. We use a livestream format, so that anyone can subscribe, get the notification and join in. The positive reviews for Lomani are all true. I say that because it saves me from writing heaps of effusive prose! Well worth a try!

I bought this as a blind buy and this is my first review on Fragrantica. I got the current formulation of Lomani Pour Homme (bottle with the silver stripe) and I'm very happy with it. Relatively long lasting. Great projection. It reminds me of being a kid in the 1980s and being dropped off at the barbershop by my mother. I was always the only child in there and I associate Lomani Pour Homme with that time and place and to what I assumed was the scent of 'real men'. It's retro and very masculine...almost macho...but in a good way! Testosterone. Bad boy. Edgy. Warm. Confident. Clean. It makes me feel manly and sexy. Versatile. Recommended as a blind buy considering the price. * Edit: Not recommended in hot weather as it gets cloggy.

Lomani Pour Homme might be the best deal in the world of fragrances. As is canon, it resembles Drakkar Noir. But, I have 100 ml bottles of each and prefer Lomani, which I got from FragranceNet for under $10. I think Lomani is a less busy and more balanced version of Drakkar. A lot of fresh spiciness with fewer competing notes. Lots of projection and staying power for one spray. I would reserve this for slightly cooler temperatures, but it is a versatile fragrance. I did use it before a workout because I've been enjoying it so much, and it choked me out a little given its strength, so maybe steer clear of that. Overall, I highly recommend a bottle given its quality and value as an exceptional cheapie.

A must buy do not even think, just buy it. Smells like the Drakkar of OLD!!, not the sorry pitiful excuse out now. Came out just after Drakkar and ripped it off, but Lomani did it better!! I agree with some that this was the platform for Cool Water, which did come out A year after this! I LOVE this stuff, you can find it on line for around $10! Great silage, Might be the best value around. Guy's, women LOVE this scent, I know not why but they just do, they get drawn into it and get close. All you college guys on A budget or anyone looking for A great smelling high priced scent but do not have the $$, save your pennies and buy this instead. Manly Brew 10/10

Another 80's classic. If you like Drakkar Noir and Quorum then you will surely like this Lomani pour Homme as well. A bouquet of floral, citrusy, earthy, spicy aroma filled with masculinity in barber shop, stays for about 4 hrs. It's also the cheapest around $8 - $10. The latest purchase has almost the same scent of 20 yrs ago so to me it seems as same without any change. Lomani pour Homme is an all year all weather perfume. I like Quorum 's smell due to prominent tobacco note but this makes it mostly a winter scent. Scent 8/10 Sillage 8/10 Projects very noticeably for 2 hrs. Longevity 7/10 I get 4hrs. Value 9/10

Disclosure: I don't wear this but my husband has for years. This scent is damn good juice at a low, low price. I never realised how good till I recently got a chance to check out Eau Savage. Lomani is basically a less complex, more linear version, perhaps Eau Savage on a budget. This is not a criticism by any means. I tend to think of Lomani as a deep sea blue silk; Eau Savage would be five or so shades lighter with an intricate print. If you love Eau Savage, I doubt you'll hate this fragrance. On hubby, Lomani has monster longevity. It's definitely a very masculine scent, if such a thing exists.

Yes it's similar if not inspired by Drakkar Noir but it's very much it's own fragrance. What I like is this can be worn year round. Drakkar Noir even in its weaker formulation I would pass wearing in higher summer heat. With the added citrus and the removal of the coniferous and leather notes this can easily be pulled off in the dog days of summer. This is an ideal fragrance not only for someone looking to get their feet wet in aromatic fougeres without committing a large investment but for seasoned fougere lovers that want an inexpensive knockaround fragrance. Timeless, clean, and masculine.

I remember back in the days most of the Catholic churches in our city was run by Irish priest or foreign priest, this cologne reminds me of how they smell. The scent is for 40 and above in my opinion, this scent does not remind me of Drakkar Noir, Drakkar scent is different and for younger guys. The longevity is up to 3 hours on clothes and the sillage is decent, when I wear this at home my daughter would say I smell like a priest. The scent profile is definitely not for todays standard and I wear this when I am at home and to remind me of the good old days of my childhood.

Upon initial spray on my skin, I get that sweet geranium, then heavy sweet lavender, then the zesty mint with lemon. There's an effervescence to it. Top heavy sweet geranium with a zesty mint to my nose. Some camphor starts to come thru adding to the effervescence. This is definitely punching above it's price level. Very lavender-ish. Beautiful fragrance in my humble opinion. Well worth the $11 I paid for it. Get it. I'm surprised it's not been discontinued because the quality sure is here for the price. Again, your getting more than what it's priced for! Kudos Lomani. 👏👏👏

Smells a little funky at first then dries down to a nice mossy, aromatic, and slightly camphorus base. To me it doesn’t smell super similar to Drakkar Noir, it’s lighter slightly more floral and heavier on the lavender. For 7-10 bucks this stuff is a good blind buy and dumb reach if you’re a fan of fougeres. Performance is alright, i would recommend for running errands or as a scent to put on at home, it doesn’t last or project long enough for work/school. This stuff is nice I would recommend it.

Deserves a much higher score. Yes, it is a little bit screechy and overpowering when first sprayed, but 15 to 20 minutes in it changes into a very wonderful fragrance. On a hot day the Camphorous note shines through and smells amazing on hot skin. My bottle is from 2019 and it still has real Oakmoss in it. This is 60% similar to Drakkar. Drakkar is a little more complex and deeper. This is like a light version of Drakkar. Just an excellent fragrance, if you wear it right. Easy on that trigger.

It's a mix of Drakkar Noir (70%) and Puig's Quorum (30%). It costs anything between 10-15€/100ml which is amazing value for money. You should go ahead and blind buy this wherever you find it, because you simply must. If you are planning to get Drakkar Noir, which was once the superior choice but not any longer, buy this instead. Use this product as a no-nonsense canon for cost-benefit in perfumery. Once you do, you will be fully aware when you've been had.

Mostly underrated gem! Drakkar noir vibe without darkness! Flowery, manly, very safe scent profile! Performance/price ratio is very good! This is the good guy Drakkar noir! I love the funky dark notes in drakkar, but this without those is a totally another vibe. Absolute blind buy, and if you love fougere scents u will love it too! You can wear it through the day, and apply noir in the night, the fade each other perfectly!

Old School? Yes. Manly? Yes. Worth every penny? Hell Yeah! This is a definitely a classic fougere, no mistaking that. My advice, take a good look at the reminds me of list above, if you don't like any of those fragrances, the chances are you won't like Lomani Pour Homme either. That being said, it's so inexpensive why not give it a shot, you could always give it to your Dad, or Granddad. Damn, now I feel old. Cheers.

Similar in nature to Guy Laroche Drakkar Noir. What a barbershop open! It starts with a sharp lemon, rosemary, and aromatic lavender. In the heart we get some spicy camphor and cloves before settling into an earthy base of moss, patchouli, and coumarin. I f*ing love fougeres; if I got rid of my giant collection and replaced everything with a few hundred fougeres of varying styles I'd still probably be pretty happy.

The fragrance has been reformulated; it is not as potent as I remember, but it keeps its integrity and strong male personality. I like it a lot, and although it may not be crowd-pleasing, this fragrance stands on its very masculine grounds, just for retrosexual sigma males that do not wear their fragrances to impress or to get compliments, this is a fragrance for a man with strong character and solid personality.

Got this quite cheap from the States and it's really lovely. Very powerful with great sillage and lasting power - it really lasts ages! It's a lot like Drakaar but does have it's own character. Starts with aldehydes and spices. The drydown is a really gorgeous spicy fresh smell with some herbs. If you can't get hold of D.N. get this one. A great value "old school" type masculine and powerful fragrance - love it!

A reliable go-to for when I just want to smell nice without having to delve into the expensive stuff. Get compliments on it wherever I go, and sometimes I just spray it on at home to enjoy it whenever. Nice crisp presence, with a comforting mossy "feel" (obviously since one of the base/main notes is moss). Will always be part of my collection, and for the price, won't be too hard.

Lomani PH punches WAY above it's crazy low-price weight class. It's one of those "nothing to lose and everything to gain" scents: a brighter Drakkar that, dare I say, I like just as much, with a price I've seen as low as $7.50 for a 3.3 ounce bottle. Performance is decent and it deserves a higher Fragrantica rating than it's current high 3s. Recommend.

This is not really that bad. The lavender is the most prominent note, the tangerine and lemon disappear rapidly. After an hour the lavender had largely degraded and what is left is a faint woody shadow. Considering it cost $9.99 Australian for 100mL, it is quite a good deal.

I absolutely love this. Only downside is that it lasts around 30 to 40 minutes on me. Then it's a skin scent for another half hour. Then it disappears. Very manly. Fresh barbershop scent. Carry it around in an atomizer because it's well worth it.

Summer Drakkar. Citrus in the opening smells a tad cheap, but dries down fresh and sporty. Day time summer scent. White T and jeans. Slick that hair back. Not a night time sexy. But still. 9/10. Im diggin this one.

Lomani P H is a very familiar scent because the big similarity with Drakkar Noir. But it is still a very aromatic and 100% men's fragrance! The price is really good, so I can say it is a must have for every man!

Agree with CodyJr! So damn good! A really great fragrance with that awesome old school vibe which suits me! I get 8+ hours on 4 sprays! For $12.99 NZD with the body spray as well that’s a steal in anyone’s book!

Hands down, current favourite fragrance of all times. It's literally nothing special but I just can not get over the shave foam, clean, sexy, masculine feeling it gives me. For the price, 10/10, will re purchase

Timeless, clean, man-smell. Not sure why I don't hear more about this one. I put it up there with Drakkar and Azzaro Pour Homme. Hyper-versatile. If you don't know what to wear, wear this.

Excellent Very pleasant smell good start from the beginning staying power over 9 hours Very low price I use this perfume from the 80s and I love it so much definitely worth

This is like dn but better it’s brighter and less offensive it lasts pretty well and projects with heat. A good gym scent and super fresh to me

For $8 US you can get a crap cup of coffee or you can buy yourself something that will make you smell manly. Choose wisely.

If Parfums de Marly Sedley was made in the 80's this is what it would smell like. Barbershop bonanza in a bottle!

This stuff is very good and it is cheap. I wear it quite often and I really enjoy it. I would rate it 9/10.

Drakkar noir with heavy lavender. Great scent. Can't beat it for the price.

Soapy, spicy, long lasting, inexpensive and....LOVELY!

great perfume for such a cheap price. similar to DN

Excellent value for money, fresh clean fragrence

Really good stuff. Two thumbs up for me...

Clean Nice masculine powerhouse

Vintage bottles dried down to a bare-bones oakmoss note and nothing else. The reformulated version with "Lomani" stamped in the glass has a more synthetic mossy finish, marred after the initial Drakkar Noir-wannabe freshness by an unpleasant funky musk that simply doesn't integrate with the sharp citrus and winds up smelling slightly fecal. I've read reviews of Lomani pour Homme that tsk-tsk the comparison to Drakkar Noir (and Cool Water) and opine on how it doesn't smell much like its Reagan era contemporaries. If you see anyone doing that, they're overthinking it. Yes, Lomani pour Homme is brighter, more citrusy, and a bit more "outdoorsy" in its first 5 minutes on skin or fabric, and yes, it's "wetter" and more lush in overall vibe at that stage than Drakkar Noir. But anyone who smells it and claims not to get the direct comparison is lying or stupid. Clearly it's not a clone (I don't know of anyone who has claimed as much), but also just as clearly it's heavily "inspired by" Laroche's landmark 1982 fougère. Without Drakkar Noir, you wouldn't have Lomani pour Homme. Paco Rabanne, Grey Flannel, Azzaro, all are over in the other corner with this one. In other words, their existence alone would not have spurred Lomani's creation. It was Pierre Wargnye's scent that directly led to this little-known European release from 1987, and probably what keeps it in production. I for one have never quite understood the adulation Lomani pour Homme attracts. It's certainly not the worst thing out there (Secretions Magnifique might hold that title), but it's easily one of the worst fougères ever made. Luca Turin went on record saying Duc de Vervins is the worst fougère; no, Luca, Lomani pour Homme is. There's no redeeming the chemical dihydromyrcenol blare of fake "fresh" in its opening accord—citrus notes my ass—followed by the bitter boredom of what is literally a single note of weak oakmoss in the heart that gets ever more acrid and dimensionless in the base (if it's paired with vetiver, that's not helping matters, as I struggle to understand the allure of that material as well). In the newer formula, that dull moss smells even less compelling and more synthetic, and as I said before, there's a bizarrely unbalanced musky element that literally stinks, and wasn't in the original version. So they even managed to make this fragrance worse than it was. If I had to guess, I'd say Lomani survives because Drakkar Noir remains an elusive fragrance for budget hounds. Typically it is still priced at the weirdly upmarket realm of between $35 and $50, even at discounters. Only online can you find much more reasonably priced bottles, and even that is a very recent development. So people who want the same overall vibe as Drakkar Noir but can't spend the money on it go for direct clones like Parfums Belcam's Classic Match version, which is actually quite good, or something in the same ballpark like Lomani. I say get the Classic Match version, or just get the real deal, but by god skip this cheap crap.

A gentleman needs to be considerate, polite, respectful and attentive to the needs of his feminine social circle. He should be aware that it has been some time since he has grown up and become an adult. This includes exhibiting classic gentlemanly behaviours such as pulling up a chair for a lady to sit in, opening the door to let your wife in first, walking on the outside side of the pavement, taking your girlfriend's coat, and so on. I personally believe that if all men behaved like gentlemen, we would live in a better world. Nowadays most men who behave like that don't necessarily stand out... or do they? Perhaps a significant number of men like to feel like "The One", a perfect "Sauvage" or an authentic "Le Male". However, I would argue that even today, most men prefer to behave like the stereotype of a true gentleman, and, why not, to smell like him. Lomani pour Homme presents the classic scent of a gentleman. It completely evokes the soapy scent of fresh shaving cream. While there are many fragrances with the same aromatic spectrum, this is certainly one of the most pleasant I have ever tried. Plus, it's probably the cheapest by far. On opening, it reminds me a bit of Paco Rabanne pour Homme, for its pronounced "greenness". Citrusy notes are clearly detected, but the strongest chords derive from notes of lavender, and green, camphorated herbs. On drying, it reminds me slightly of Rive Gauche pour Homme (2003) for its barbershop nuances. It turns out to be quite mossy and has traces of patchouli. Overall, the perfume is really very similar to Drakkar Noir. I consider the performance only average, ensuring maximum longevity of 7 hours and a sillage between 4 and 5 feet. However, the projection during the first two hours is much higher than average. Fixation on clothing is also quite high. A huge number of sprays increases longevity, but you risk the projection becoming monstrous. The best solution is to repeat 3 sprays after 5 hours, to get a longer but balanced performance. My opinion: This old-scholl all-male fragrance can be considered a viable signature scent if you like classic barbershop fragrances. Lomani pour Homme is an aromatic fougère, proving to be a citrusy fougère in the opening, and mossy fougère in the base. It is difficult to distinguish it from the more complex Drakkar Noir. It constitutes a good choice for any kind of weather and any time of the day. It can be worn in the office, but don't over-spray it. In a closed space and around many people, the strong initial projection can be too intrusive. Its smell can be considered a bit dated and is perhaps more popular with people nostalgic for the 80s. Its price is ridiculously low and allows for a blind purchase without hesitation.

Lomani Pour Homme is an excellent fragrance. I can't even begin a review of Lomani without pointing out that it resembles Drakkar Noir, but Lomani is a brighter, age neutral (unlike DN), and more versatile sibling of DN. It also outlasts the current formulation of DN, which other reviewers have stated. I can't speak about vintage DN, although it's certainly one of the more popular colognes of my youth. Lomani is much less busy and pretentious in its notes and is, in my opinion, much easier to wear than DN. The notes, according to my nose: This is a fairly linear fragrance that opens up with a lot of lemon and lavender, a bit of moss and bitter bergamot, some sweet woody tonka and patchouli, and a touch of spicy clove and fruity geranium. It's more citrus/lavender forward at first application and becomes more sweet woody (tonka and patchouli) after about the third or fourth hour, but somehow the lavender and citrus seems to hang on in the background throughout the life of the fragrance. 8 hours have gone by since I put it on this morning and I can still smell it at about arms length, and judging from previous wearings it'll slowly fade to a skin scent as it disappears over the next 4-6 hours, but I wouldn't necessarily call Lomani a "Beast Mode" scent due to it being almost entirely agreeable and not overpowering. It is fairly simple and linear, but that's one of its best qualities. There are many similarities to Drakkar Noir, but is definitely not a facsimile and is unique enough to own if you also own DN. Also, the price of Lomani can't be beat; I paid around $5 for a 100ml bottle, which is an amazing, and not uncommon (it can easily be found for less than $10), price, especially for a fragrance of this quality. You've got absolutely nothing to lose on a blind-buy. Pick up a bottle of Lomani Pour Homme!

LOMANI POUR HOMME – THE ULTIMATE "SAFE BET" FOR A MAN OF CHARACTER FUNCTIONALITY MEETS CLASS If you aren't looking for the next fleeting trend but rather a dependable constant, you will inevitably arrive at Lomani pour Homme. This fragrance is the answer for anyone who simply wants to smell good and clean without turning perfumery into a complex science. You spray it on and know instantly: it fits. It is masculine, unpretentious, and radiates a level of sovereignty that is often hard to find today. THE MILDER BROTHER OF DRAKKAR NOIR The kinship to the legendary Drakkar Noir is unmistakable. Lomani hits the exact same notes but is milder in its execution. While Drakkar often kicks the door down, Lomani is more diplomatic. The only trade-off: due to the smoother formulation, it isn't quite as long-lasting as its famous role model - which actually makes it more pleasant for daily use at the office or at home. METALLIC CLEANLINESS: SHARP LAVENDER-FERN The heart of this fragrance is its metallic cleanliness. It follows a classic Fougère (fern) structure, defined by a sharp, almost cool lavender. It smells like a freshly stropped razor and high-quality soap - clear, edgy, and without any unnecessary sweetness. AN UNBEATABLE PRICE-PERFORMANCE RATIO Let’s look at the most rational argument: the price. Finding a craftmanship-solid EdT for as low as 10 Euros per 100 ml is almost unbelievable. It is the uncomplicated choice for anyone who values a groomed appearance but prefers to invest their money elsewhere. CONCLUSION Lomani pour Homme offers a fantastic price-performance ratio for an even better EdT. If you are looking for strength of character and cleanliness without getting lost in the "fragrance jungle," you will find your perfect, budget-friendly anchor here.

Ever caught a whiff of dad's old razor kit? Steam cloud on a mirror, double-edged safety razor... Lomani pour Homme smells just like that, the old shaving cosmetics. This is a distinctly old-world fragrance: very fresh (early morning shave fresh), not in the way we associate with today's compositions (modern aquatics fresh). It's a conservative, straightforward fougère. It opens with lavender and bergamot, though those quickly fade into a slightly sweet accord. In the background, lemon spirals over mossy canvas. The heart is a soapy-foamy accord, thoroughly refreshing, with green herbal and woody accents. In the base lies a subtle vetiver, and somewhere in the distance you can detect a micro-note of incense smoke. It never smells cheap, but it is quite unoriginal. After all, what here truly tried to break new ground? This is 200% masculine — unless you're one of those 'women' who shaves 'her' beard. It's a blind-buy safe for men who appreciate the concept of a clean breeze shaving foam. Versatile and inexpensive: €7 for 100 ml gives you a clear idea of how affordable genuinely decent perfume can be, easily besting many pricier offerings. The clunky bottle's design is exactly what you'd expect for the price. Think of it as a retro-clean juice — an etched-in-memory scent of your first shave. At a deodorant's price point, it essentially IS a deodorant: at first extremely potent within its short longevity window, then it quickly fades to pure skinscent. Just be prepared to reapply as you would a body spray.
