By the editors · 2 min readThe opening bursts with bright pineapple and lavender, an unexpected alliance that captures 1980s optimism without veering into pure athleticism. Citrus and herbs sketch a crisp frame, but the fruit pushes forward, sweet and confident against aromatic restraint.
Within minutes, the heart unfolds into something more contemplative. Petitgrain and incense introduce a dry, smoky refinement, while jasmine and honey add roundness without excess. This middle ground bridges the exuberance of the top with the weightier base that follows.
The drydown settles into classic masculine territory: sandalwood, oakmoss, and tobacco build a warm, slightly earthy structure that feels lived-in rather than ceremonial. Lapidus Pour Homme wears like a well-made suit from its era—structured but comfortable, assertive without aggression. It suits someone who values presence over novelty, a fragrance that remembers when men's scents were allowed to be both bold and tender.
