by Animale
Animale Animale for Men is a rich, sweet gourmand fragrance that opens with a bright, fruity burst of pineapple, honey, and citrus notes. The sweetness is balanced by a prominent tobacco note and warm, powdery floral accords, creating a masculine yet elegantly sensual profile. Over time, its complex heart reveals a deep, warm blend of vanilla, amber, and patchouli, grounded in woodsy notes like sandalwood and cedar. The fragrance develops into a warm, slightly animalic base that feels luxurious and mature. It has a moderate to strong projection, lasting well into the evening, with long-lasting sillage that lingers on skin and clothing. Though some find it synthetic or chemically sharp initially, most agree it evolves into a deeply satisfying, nostalgic scent that feels both vintage and timeless. It performs best in cooler climates, especially autumn and winter, where its warmth and sweetness shine. For those who enjoy gourmands but find A*Men too overpowering, this offers a more refined, accessible alternative with superb value.
