After 40 years of wearing various fragrances I always come back to this. It is outstanding in terms of class. Not everyone will get it. Probably only those with a discerning taste.
It's intelligently formulated with as you say a change of character throughout the day.
It is everything you describe.
Thank you for the beautiful comment Mark, realy enjoyed reading it. I am so glad your enjoyed the review and love this fragrance as much as I do. Stay safe and have a wonderful week :)
I have learned more about this, my life long sigature!..Yes, close to the skin, but this is the epitome of what a true classic cologne smells of. Seductive, to say the least especially at close-range;)
Now, for something very close (only the opening), but with beastly protection AND longevity...Tiffany For Men. Same perfumier, btw..
Aces, AC.
Thank you Bobby, and many thanks for the tip mate, I was looking for one such fragrance.... so Tiffany for Men it is :)
Pure class, simplicity and elegance.
indeed my friend :)
*This is a timeless male Chanel masterpiece. Wore the EdT, it smells gorgeous classy from the zesty citrus opening to the wonderful oakmoss drydown! It's in my wishlist (along with Antaeus), one day it will be mine. Great in-depth review as always, AC! Have a great chilly sunday!* ☕🤩👍
you nailed it buddy, your exactly right
hahah Thank you Amoy :)
Superb fragrance. Projection is subtle and very classy. Nothing compares with this. Original formula my favourite. I have found it smells stronger in the cold air.
Nice one Mark. I will have to try it in the winter then :)
So many fragrances, so little time AC! Another bottle I must have. I have a few Chanel and I love them : No5, No19, and Antaeus. It’s interesting that it’s classed as a barbershop scent in spite of its nobility inspired origins. It does kind of elevate the humble genre which pleases me. Fine review AC. ( no flowers today? )
Paqul, I am avoiding flowers as its giving me flu like symptoms, you might have noticed my red nose in the 5000 sub video :)
I am glad you enjoyed this video mate.
Well done, love your reviews. Had this classic around since the 80's!
Thank you Dan, its really very elegant masculine! love it :)
Incredible review Sir! I just got the EDP and it is such a familiar smell. Absolutely beautiful, never thought a fugere can smell this warm and elegant
Thank You Alexander and absolutely the EDP is just Lush. I have to review it soon.
@@SmellsGoodfragrancereviews Looking forward to it!! The combination of lemon&vetiver gave me a clove smell and I love it! I am excited to hear your take on it!
I find your analysis amazing and you really love your subject
Thank you Nikos, very kind of you.
Another very well thought out review. I absolutely love a good classic masculine citrus. I’m imagining this is in the same family with Eau du Rochas which I just love. It is so clean and bright and unapologetically for men. Use it frequently at the office and love every minute of it. I need to get my nose on this one. Enjoyed. 👍🏻
its not far off Rocas mate, but this one is more complex and higher quality :)
Dear AC i am falling in great love for your reviews, just like that you peel off the skin of every fragrances you come across and the way you compare it like pro perfumer, you can even do lifestyle management services. Awesome

Thanks you Albert I am delighted to see you get some value out of my fragrance reviews. Many thanks for the kind words :)
Oh man late to comment. Another great review of course. Happy to have found enough of the concentree to hold off on getting the edt until I have the recent edp. When I smelled the concentree, could see where Allure Homme Sport came from. Smells so "Chanel;" more "modern" than Eau Sauvage or even my vintage, but way younger, Armani Eau Pour Homme. Aristocratic, non-shouty for sure. Great review. Love this scent; my new fav Chanel. Oh and liked the inclusion of photos.
I am very much in concert with you, this Chanel is very special. The opening gets me every time and I wish it lasted a bit longer :)
Hi AC , replenished my stock of Aqua Di Parma Colonia last week and the kind saleslady gave me a sneak preview of their new fragrance Vaniglia Eau De Parfum i think it’s only available in Harrods at present and she was being naughty by giving me a sample.Bless her it’s gorgeous . Very kind regards sir.
you know my love for AdP as a brand Adam, I will keep an eye out for Vaniglia, it it in a blue bottle? or clear bottles ?
Im 40 and Ive just smelled pour monsieur a couple of years ago for the first time and I really love it it has become one of my favorites ,it is not something that brings memories for example I have a bottle of the 60s of Lanvin- Monsieur and it reminds me of my childhood smelling it within my family or someone close, I don't know if you have tried Lancetti- Monsieur it is also a wow for me in the direction of CPM , lancetti monsieur is the one I use in winter, nice review.
I haven't tried Lancetti but I can identify with the emotions you felt about Lanvin. Glad to see you liked Pour Monsieur.
Great Review AC Awesome Fragrance !!!
Indeed mate :)
I agree totally with your review A.C, I own the concentree. Version, I was lucky, I bought mine in Barcelona about 10 years ago for about £45.00, I still have the bottle about 1/2 full, beautiful, one of my all time favourite fragrances, classy, sefisticated, but as you say, performance is slightly flawed as far as projection is concerned, still when dressed appropriately it's perfect, thanks A.C another great review.
Thank you Michael, its just the nature of the composition, its just a quiet scent and once you accept it things become easy. I still like it though, really enjoy it :)
Hi A C I only have a example but I think it’s in the dark brown bottle range. Cheers.
Another that I've sat on the fence with and as yet never pulled the trigger on over the years AC, I do love barbershop style fragrance so will have to reconsider making a purchase some time soon, cheers 👌
Very well worth it if you don't mind the low performance mate :)
As has been said many times, "class in a bottle". I wore it with a suit a tie to work all through the 1980's, until I discovered the louder Kouros and Drakkar Noir.
Very nicely described and I do agree. I just can´t imagine who could possibly dislike this gorgeous scent. I´m below 40 and I loved this scent since the first sniff (unlike the EDP).
But from my experience the longevity really isn´t good. 2 hrs and it´s gone (tested at home in 22 deg. Celsius) ... I can smell it again if the sprayed spots get wet again. So yes, this frag needs heat and maybe a little bit of sweat to work for a longer time.
Guerlain Habit Rouge L´Eau is another great alternative to Chanel Pour Monsieur. They share the same kind of soapyness, both very classy and ellegant, yet timeless ... not oldschool at all. Guerlain has better performance and is much cheaper - very good alternative.
And what about taking a look at Caron Le 3 Homme and Caron Yatagan? Both very interresting, classy, manly fragrances ...and maybe daring in case of Yatagan - but it´s so interresting I love to wear it ... it provides me a good mood :).
Thank you for watching my friend and glad you enjoy this as much as I do. The opening is so so good, I just love it.
I still haven''t tried HR l eau yet. I tried Caron Le3 Homme and Yatagan but I think I should go back to it in near future.
I've been debating on whether or not to get this for a while now, and your review has pushed me quite a bit further to where I think I will get this in the near future.
Thank you Bob, and I hope you do enjoy it when you get them, as long as the low performance doesn't bother you.
Lovely review, as always! Keep it up. 😎
Thank you Rui, I am glad you enjoyed it mate :)
Great review and I enjoyed it and I'm gonna try it have a blessed day
Usualy I laugh when reviewers say frag smells “expensive” or “like money” but you might be on to something with comparisons to old money. It’s an understated scent much like most of chanel exclusifs. Old money usually despises the loudness of new money, so this scent is right up their alley:)
Oh mate, couldn't agree more on it being under- rated . That opening is something to rave about :)
Another great review! Now, I do believe I'm not that "mature" to wear such fragrances yet, but I will grow, or my nose will grow to like such scents. Still waiting for samples from Montale & Mancera to give you feedback on Wild fruits and some other scents, that I've been trying to explore lately. Also ordered a bottle of Rasasi's Daarej, so cheap that I couldn't resist. I have a few Rasasi fragrances and I do enjoy wearing them all, hope that Daarej is also a nice one.
Take care,
Stoyan
Stoyan, do sample it as you can in many stores as its readily available, and see if it suits your taste.
Daarej is fabulous and I shall review it soon on here.
Bonjour. Versatility, sillage, smell, let's say in general what is the best between Chanel Pour Monsieur edt and Egoïste edt?
I'm looking for a Chanel perfume.
I absolutely love this fragrance, the only reason I don't have it is because I have very poor performance with this fragrance, on my skin lasts about 3h on summer (I don't care if it projects or whatever, but I do need to feel the fragrance, unfortunately with this one I stop feeling it after 2h top :( ) and since it's not exactly inexpensive there are always other fragrances that give me more for the money. Nonetheless one of my favs from chanel, timeless classic. The edp doesn't even come close to this one, would love if they could make an edp that smelled just like this one
Totally in concert with your thoughts on this one Samuel, I think the EDP is a totally different scent altogether :)
BIG love. ❤️
Thank you Amit :)
Great detail as usual...I have this one on my wishlist 😎😁
Thanks buddy, you have good taste i know :)
Another excellent review. Have you reviewed Antaeus? I would appreciate your opinion about that one.
I just love this beautiful and classic fragrance! I have to say that I think I am lucky because I get good longevity from this. It doesn't project much becouse It doesn't supposed to be laud! It s an elegant smell, so clean, so fresh, so classic, uplifting fragrance! A masterpiece
Its a very good fragrance indeed. I enjoy it lot :)
Maybe i should try it, the reviews on fragrantica was not very good on the longevity side. Only medium.
I wore it back in the 1980's and it was pretty strong back then. I had the "concentree" splash version (and still have about 10% of the bottle left). I'm sorry I didn't buy a few cases for the future. As far as the scent goes, it's been called "class in a bottle". Perfect with a suit, pressed shirt and tie. I used to feel naked if I left the house in the morning without splashing it on. It perfectly compliments business attire.
Shave- a-thon Luca Turin (like him or not) also have it on his best cheap bottle list. With the price for it, there is no problem to buy it and try.
The scent sounds amazing, but the “spray often” will turn me away from bottles. There is soooooo many amazing choices today, and the longevity is very important for me overall.
@@kasper9582 Chanel Pour Monsieur is on his cheap bottle list? What does he consider cheap?! Luca Turin knows his classics but Chanel is never cheap!
Elegant and uplifting. It's true. Sadly, modern formulation have very weak performance. Anyway, thanks for review.
An excellent review.
Great review AC. I agree with you that it's not for everybody. Personally, I love this style of fragrances and it reminds me of my father. I wonder how do you compare it to New York intense and what do you prefer between the two?
My heart and nose for Patricia's creation. Chanel too quiet for me.
Gediminas Kontrimas especially in the dry down, it’s more interesting to me.
New york intense ( which I have reviewed) is a different scent both in smell and temperament to this one. If I ever found a scent that was similar to the opening of this fragrance I would absolutely get it. The opening of this fragrance is amazing :)
The best opening I ever smelt, is there a fragrance that is simmilar with better performance?
I could not agree more, I am on the hunt as well. Some have suggested Tiffany for men, but I haven't sampled it yet.
I would give it 8.5 out of 10...but yes...probably for those of Middle Age.
My signature. Prefer it over Eau Sauvage.
Nice one Dan, might I also suggest Rochas Man if you like such fragrances.
Will check it out! Cheers.
i guess you need to compare this against super cheap traditional barbershop hair tonics.
This is the edt concentree which is what my bottle that I still have from the 1980's looks like. I just wish it were full like this! i63.tinypic.com/148jbb6.jpg
Uuu pleace bleu de chanel 😊😊😊
🤷♂️ y para los que no entendemos ingles🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
Coco chanel was an antisemitic, for that i don't respect her and thus don't think her as "classy" not gonna lie.
