Azzaro Pour Homme Fragrance Review

[@marcinkwiatkowski9176]

Azzaro pour Homme is a masterpiece of male fragrances. It's one of the best scents ever created. Original, masculine, strong, herbal fougere. For those who ar much into eighties, who want to smell very classy, mysterious it's just must have scent. I do not agree with your performance rating. It lasts 10-11 hours. Really! The gem of night scents. Get it

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

Marcin Kwiatkowski well the performance can be different for different people, it smells so good I wish it lasted longer on me, thank you for watching and commenting sir!

[@MegamanBillydaKid]

Also consider this has been reformulated … you May have a vintage bottle that’s gonna last longer but in any case if you have the new bottle your skin may just be a better palate, you’re lucky! .. Im getting about 7-8 hours with out any accessories such as after shave or body wash & creams, just by it’s self.

[@marcinkwiatkowski9176]

@@MegamanBillydaKid i meant modern version. But i have also vintage. Both are great.

[@investigatorreports4311]

I've never smelled the vintage, but the the current version to my nose, smells of black licorice, barbasol, and woody and leathery. Fresh crisp and classic. I think it's the absolute balls 💈🧼💪

Great review! My mum gave me this as a gift months ago. I'm 26 years old, but i do enjoy vintage fougere stuff. At first didn't like it really, but now i can really enjoy this! It smells like old-school mercedes benz interior with black leather upholstery and brown wood trim hahah + my gf likes it too and says it smells very masculine :)

[@cszabo8899]

What a trip. I had a little decant of this-a dabber-around 1990, summer of. Couldn’t stop wearing it. But soon I found my stepdad’s bottle of Drakkar and it was pure love. After being given a bottle I never looked back. Time to revisit Azzaro. Thanks for a great review!

[@docsamson198]

Completely agree with your review. I remembered how many men wore this in my neighborhood in the 1980's when I was growing up. I personally have always liked it, but the performance these days is definitely lacking. I also agree about the Azzaro and Chrome flankers, it's like a dizzy teenager created those. One more thing: Azzaro Pour Homme is still extremely popular with elderly men in France.

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

docsamson198 I could definitely see this still being a popular scent for sure, still being made and now that it’s grown on me I will definitely wear it a lot this fall, thank you for watching and commenting sir!

[@michaelhill7415]

The reason old french men like it is they drink Ricard and pastis which are anise based so it goes hand in hand

[@wordlife1997]

Scored a bottle of the current formulation in 200ml. Pretty solid 8 plus hours with ease.

[@karl8190]

Agree with the previous comment - vintage is richer. Get the oval cap version. When this clicked for me, which it did on the second day of wearing, it really really clicked. It's wonderful.

[@dustybryan91]

It's funny how our tastes change over time. I had a similar thing with Paul Sebastian. Years ago, an older guy suggested that scent and I didn't understand it or appreciate it at all back then, but now that I'm 31 I love it. Azzaro is one I hadn't heard of until I watched this channel. I sampled it at a fragrance outlet recently and really liked it, but it is definitely one I wouldn't have liked when I was younger. It has a very unique scent. I think it's that anise like you mentioned. I'll definitely buy a bottle very soon. My family thought it smelled good on me.

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

I like Paul Sebastian as well but like you I definitely would not have when I was much younger. Definitely try azzaro pour Homme for sure !

[@justinhight8880]

I got the new one and liked it but then git the vintage and it's way better. Less sweet and more bite and less of the sweet licorice part and more masculine with the vintage. The perfume store by my house has several vintage bottles for only 15 bucks each. So much better than the current formulation

[@WilliamA6]

So glad I picked this up!! I had the azzaro chrome in my hand while I was in the line then saw the pour homme picked it up instead. Thanks for helping me dodge a bullet with the azzaro chrome😂

[@dustybryan91]

My vintage bottle of Azzaro Pour Homme just arrived. Holy crap! It's way better than the current formulation. It was only $35 on eBay. You should definitely invest in a vintage bottle. It's totally worth it and it's not expensive

[@profound369]

thanks for the info

[@profound369]

how do you know for sure if its a vintage bottle though?

[@MarkStark-dx9dm]

It's nice to see a review of this one. That small Azarro rant had me laughing. I too am a bit sick and tired of the blue bubblegum wave that has flooded the fragrance world.

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

Mark Bladt it’s all that’s around now I can’t believe it lol

[@dspada67]

Hi from West Australia, back in 1984 when I was clubbing , my buddy wore this and I wore Oscar De Lorenta Pour Lui. I am not exaggerating when i tell you , women would stop in their tracks to actual sniff him up and Down, it was ridiculous. I hardly got noticed 😂 even though I was wearing a great scant as well. To this day I own a vintage bottle of Azzaro and current formulation which is 30% weaker than before but it still draws complements when people get a whiff of it. As for the Oscar, it was my wedding scent and still love it and still get some complements.😬

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

I really enjoy azzaro Pour Homme now despite it taking me a few years to come around on it, it’s it worth tracking down a vintage ?

[@MatCo774]

Azzaro pour Homme its an excelent fragance, but you have to get used to it, not many people like it for the first time, but when it nails you, WOW, it became one of your favorites for sure

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

Yes it took me a while to warm up to the scent but when my tastes for classics further developed I really grew to enjoy this one. Thank you for watching and commenting Matheus !

[@investigatorreports4311]

I had it last year, and like many others was put off by the sharp harsh, black licorice opening. Revisited it recently now I absolutely adore it, so much that I went through a 3.4 ounce bottle in 3 weeks, wore it constantly. Recently ordered another 6.7 ounces and enjoying that one too. I just absolutely love this juice APH.

[@marcelopagnussattkura6474]

Was my teenager signature scent, the oakmoss ban really castrated this scent,it was never a beast mode, but i remember it lasting for 8 to 12h, currently formulation is very weak.Still a top seller here in Brazil, people call it Azzavô that can be translated to Azzagrandpa.From the house my currently favorive is Azzaro intense, boozy cinnamon and classy.

Duuuude. I'm loving this fragrance. It definitely makes me want to wear a black shirt and jeans and a leather jacket. Vintage bottles of this aren't expensive online so I'm going to buy one for sure. This one is mainly soapy and animalic on me.

[@McDaidUSA]

I had the exact same experience! Hated the harsh anise opening but loved the mid and base notes but I still planned to sell my bottle on eBay. Then I tried it one last time and I adjusted to the anise and plan to keep it. The performance on me is great especially on clothes, t- shirt was still at 50% full power by morning after spraying it at bed time. Plan to keep this baby !!

[@lancehunter4425]

Awesome idea. I wore pour Homme as my SOTD yesterday. I did have to reapply it a couple of times. Do love it thought. The 5 new flankers they released are wicked. Cheers 🇨🇦

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

Lance Hunter it has grown on me a lot. I had a feeling those flankers were not good lol

[@javierdiazsantana]

Ay man, i did buy this. Nice scent, i think i don't like it as much as Paco Rabanne nor Polo but it's a nice one, really dig the leather, moss and base mixin' with lavender, aniseed, the cardamom, iris and citruses.

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

I love it now, initially I didn’t like it but I grew on me and now it’s one of the best classics

[@michaelhill7415]

Just thought about the flanker azzaro l'eau which is lighter and more spring, summer oriented, don't know if you can get it in the states, but it'd highly recomend you try it's way way better than all the other trash they put out like wanted and chrome plated nonsense, love to hear what you think of it.

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

I have two bottles of it and I really like it, I don’t have an individual review of it yet but it’s been mentioned in a few of my list videos. Really great scent !

[@michaelhill7415]

@@ScentsOfSouthJersey when I was young my dad used to take us to the barber's every month, it had high bench seats and rows of Cossack hair products over it, a pirelli calendar on the wall and the two guys cutting hair looked like the Gibb brothers from the beegees, and smelt just like azzaro, and freshly smoked cigarettes, ahh bliss!

[@michaelhill7415]

Could it also be a bit closer to rive gauche as it has a more subtle dry down?

[@bromunn8102]

I got the Azzaro Pour Homme Limited Edition with the Orange Palm tree on the bottle...thinking it was the Original, just in a different bottle. I've since been told it's a different version. I now want to try the original cause that's what i really wanted. I do however have Azzaro Pour Homme Intense, and do like it, and it lasts longer for me.

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

BRO MUNN the original is awesome and I just tried L’eau and that’s a nice citrus top note lighter summer version of the original

[@wmwik]

In the opening I get scented wipes sprinkled with anise, black pepper, and other spices. It’s the dry down that makes it a keeper for me. It blends perfectly with my natural odor. At that point it’s sitting close to the skin but that works for it imo. Sillage > projection with this one. A close encounter scent moonlighting as a powerhouse.

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

Admittedly it took me a while to appreciate this one but once I revisited it I really grew to like it. The sharp opening was initially challenging but now among my favorite parts of the scent break down. Thank you for watching and commenting dude

[@javierdiazsantana]

Hey there. I got a clone of it and i have to say it has quite some things in common with PR Pour Homme, still that one is more refined and even more artistic we could say. On the other side Azzaro is more rugged and i would say even more mature. I enjoy both of them. In the buying list i've got Versace Eros (Modern clubbing scent) Oscar de la Renta Pour Lui and Chanel Egoiste. I got Polo Green batch May 2020 for my birthday in July, hopefully the leather gets heavier

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

Interesting...just got a sample of this and wore it today. Told myself it was about a 6.5 rated fragrance. Decided to rewatch this video to see what you said about it, and you rated it the exact same score. I enjoyed wearing it, but I don't think I loved it enough to buy a bottle, cheap as it might be. Your review was spot on though.

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

Yeah I know what you mean, it took me years to even come around on it and now that I like it it’s great but I don’t think it’s the greatest barbershop scent ever and it does not last that long. If you ever do get a bottle get the smallest one lol

You have to know what its about. Never take too much of it otherwise you will smell old because of the many ingredients. If you spray two times right out of shower, it will give you an ultimate freshness, that isnt reached by any other fragrance in my opinion. But dont put it on if youre not fresh, it wont work if you already sweated. And dont layer it, because the smell is going to be confusing when it is mixed with the first layer or your sweat.

I think I may have had the same experience when initially smelling it. Didn't buy it for a loooooong time until it was just so cheap that I needed it for reference. The more I wore it, the more I loved it. The new formulation is just so damn smooth on my skin. Almost an aquatic barbershop if there ever was such a thing. Ever tried the Intense version? For some reason the cinnamon they use (the same in Wanted by Night) just doesn't work for me, but I know some people dig that one too. Ps, that cereal comment had me in stitches! 🤣

how do you find this compares to the Paco Rabane Pour Homme in the green bottle? I've read they are very similar.

[@investegativereports3222]

Was gonna pick this one up, mainly cause of the anise note that other classic barber scents don't have. But if it's not even up there with PRPH which is in my top 3 signature scents, then why bother right? Wouldn't wanna buy a fragrance that takes me 3 years to finally like. If Paco Rabanne is ultimately better, then Azzarro Pour Homme to me, is completely redundant.

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

oswjim it’s really grown on me I plan to use it a lot this fall season

[@veritasvincit2745]

Ridiculous performance on me. It must be my chemistry but I agree that it's possible to become anosmic to it occasionally. Anise jumps right out for me too. That's what I get. It's not about complements but this always gets them. I like it but other people seem to love it on the air off me.

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

Veritas Vincit that’s what the classic scents do !

[@investigatorreports4311]

Azzaro Pour Homme is undeniably the absolute balls 💈🧼💪😎

[@dondan2973]

„Very berry cerial mix“ hahaha, great! 😂 If there is one note on earth I cannot stand then it is anise 🤢🤮 That’s why I cannot stand Azzaro. However, the way rive gauche does the anise I like very much. Looking forward to your next one, take care and stay safe and healthy! BR, Dan.

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

Don Dan haven’t heard from you in a while hope all is well! This one took years for me to like but I’m glad I revisited it

[@dondan2973]

Scents Of South Jersey Hi Kelan, I‘m good, tanks. I hope you are doing good too. I was quite busy the last weeks and just watched your reviews of scents I‘m really interested in. Can you give me/us a hint, which scents you will review over the next weeks?

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

Don Dan fall list soon, just recently did the barbershop scent list im sure you’d enjoy that one if you haven’t seen it already along with the sopranos fragrance video

[@dondan2973]

Scents Of South Jersey Fall list, great! My fall list: Egoiste (for winter too), Chanel Pour Monsieur, YSL La Nuit and Boss Bottled Intense. Your Barbershop and Sopranos videos are really good, great picks for the Sopranos! 👍🏻

[@rizwanakhtar1552]

Azzaro Pour Homme or Drakker Noir ??? Which one to pick ! Anyone

[@abelnodarse1841]

Thanks great video

[@muhammedsaed7061]

I`ve been waiting for this review, thanks! I`ve been owning Azzaro Pour Homme since two years now. You`re so right about the harsh opening, I find it more like heavy actually, but when it dries down it`s really good. I`m looking to buy a softer barbershop fragrance, maybe greener too, perhaps Rive Gauche or Paco Rabanne Pour Homme, as you seem to prefer those too.

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

Muhammed Saed Paco Rabanne Pour Homme is still around so I’d say start with that, it’s one of the best barbershop scents ever!

[@sergiovazquez8599]

It was a really off-putting scent at first too . But still haven’t grown on me this Azzaro, I do appreciate it as a legendary fougère but it’s good . There are worse scents of this house, as you mentioned... Ginger Cringer 😂 I tried that “Naughty Leather “ from those color bottles (this collection in particular is called “Sensual Blends” 😬) and it’s like a low-budget Le Male , there is no such thing as a leather note in this “scent”. So yeah , you don’t miss anything from these Trix cereals lol . I’ve seen a vintage one and that’s Acteur from the late 80s you could check it out .

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

Yo I have Acteur sample from mcbag and a 50ml of the aftershave it’s some of the strongest sharpest stuff ever lol. But yes once I finally warmed up to this one I do enjoy it, not the best but definitely up there and a true classic.

[@brianetheridge5459]

I have my first bottle on the way

[@karlsenula9495]

Have you tried the Pour Homme Intense yet?

[@lifelikeweeds819]

You don't like Wanted by Night? I thought that might be up your alley. Maybe too fruity for you? It sprays like a bowl of fruity pebbles with spice. Once it mellows it's so loud and masculine. I really dig it.

[@Ulyssmusic]

Have you tried the intense?

[@steliosc.4686]

I personally believe that Azzaro pour homme is smoother than Rive Gauche. The anise note isnt as strong.

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

Hmm rive gauche does not have that super sharp opening like azzaro does but that’s just my personal experience with both of them, I’m glad I enjoy azzaro now though. Thank you for watching and commenting sir!

[@frankdagostino5233]

Paco Rabanne Pour Homme is similiar but wayyyy better . Highly recommend it . Old school

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

Frank Dagostino it’s so much better than azzaro, Paco is one of my all time favorites. Thank you for watching and commenting sir!

[@TheBTEAMwins]

My boi! This is gonna be good lol. Hey I can’t like anything on IG lol they banned me

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

TheHonestjbone banned ? Why ?

[@TheBTEAMwins]

Scents Of South Jersey lol idk, I can’t like comment or follow. Whatever haha.

[@iSpritz]

I’m pretty sure Chrome is just tap water, but I like Wanted

[@bobsoldrecords1503]

I love the stuff. I used to drink in Al Pacino's dad's bar in California. It's like something I would have happily squirted on before going there (Zizanie de Fragonard was my signature scent at the time) Heavy anise/liquorice are my favourite notes in this fragrance. Longevity is quite good on my skin. 6-8 hours is the usual. This & Quorum have a lot in common. Both early eighties power fragrances with a bit of an aggressive macho vibe. I prefer either one to Drakkar Noir or most of those other scents of that time period

[@earldeanpowell]

Ok. Loving what you are doing but Azzaro Intense is top 10, the newer Visit is shockingly, Catch you off guard good. Pour Homme I have and wear as a no Brainer. Unlike you, I find it not bitter, too spicy but bland and forgetable, but fine for just knocking around the house or running errands. Like what you are doing

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

I have yet to try intense, thank you for watching and commenting Earl !

[@surfgreen111]

Interesting review. I probably will pass. I always thought One Man Show opening was harsh which I know you like, so this is probably in deep left field for me. Looking forward to a fall list from you bro. Be well sir.

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

Brett this one took me a long time to enjoy so I understand avoiding it for sure. The fall list is next !

[@الاختينأمينةورزيقة]

I wanted but I'm in Morocco

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

No online ?

[@TheRealBrook1968]

Hilarious! Like getting dragged over rocks versus Rive Gauche is gliding.

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

Lol with the anise note that was the best and first way to describe the difference that came to my mind

[@Darkandahalf]

You need to give Chrome another chance lol

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

Dace Dark it’s so metallic I can’t do it lol plus I had a co worker years back who used to only wear chrome and I hated it and his cologne was ripped on to say the least 😂

[@AB-xh4vr]

This or tuscany?

[@matraf6]

Azzaro for me is the one I always compare to other barbershops...

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

matraf6 it took me a while to get this one, now I really enjoy it and I’ve been wearing it a lot. Thank you for watching and commenting dude!

[@kriseikenbery112]

Love this one! I use it a lot.

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

Kris Eikenbery it took me a while to get it lol but I’m glad I do I am really enjoying it now that I have acquired a appreciation for scents like it, thank you for watching and commenting dude!

[@JJToyo]

I had a different experience with the performance of this. Basically, this blows away anything from the current “blue” frag era. I get pretty long performance. Heck, I wake up the next day smelling this on me. It's not LOUD (doesn't project like a beast) but it the longevity is damn good.

[@Polo-mt9rb]

It smells like empty bottle of Ouzo. For my taste it's fantastic scent. Yes. It's dated and much better than Paco Rabanne Pour Homme. Little better than Drakar Noir. The only vintage fragrance wich is better than Azzaro is Polo Green. Best Best

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

Ouzo lol the strong black licorice alcohol that’s funny you mentioned that

[@AB-xh4vr]

Do women compliment this much

[@dustybryan91]

Ah man! Imagine wearing this one back in the late 70s. You'd get a hot chick with a thick bush for sure. Lmao! This one makes me feel like a 70s hitman

[@michaelhill7415]

Only just tried this in-store as we have just reopened shops here in london, really like it, I get the comparison to paco rabanne pour homme, but it's way cheaper so what do you expect! Chrome and aqua, garbage! This is like those eighties power house like lapidus or quorum, I think we need more manly stuff to wear before we all turn into topnot wearing hipster douche's.

[@ScentsOfSouthJersey]

😂😂👍🏻👍🏻 my thoughts exactly plus the power houses smell much better! Thank you for watching and commenting dude
