Gravitas Pour Homme is a refined, modern fougere with a classical foundation and subtle sweet-woody nuances. It opens with a bright, aromatic blend of bergamot, mandarin orange, and lavender, creating a fresh, slightly powdery citrus-lavender burst. The heart features cardamom, coriander, and black pepper that lend a warm, spicy lift, while vanilla and ambergris provide a soft, creamy sweetness without becoming cloying. The dry-down centers on patchouli and oakmoss, wrapped in the earthy warmth of vanilla and a faint animalic musk, giving the fragrance a mature, sophisticated character. It feels traditionally masculine—lean, smart, and discreet—evoking an image of a cultivated gentleman in a quiet countryside manor. The scent unfolds quietly, settling close to the skin with moderate projection, making it ideal for intimate settings or refined casual wear. While some users report good longevity, others note it fades after 3 hours, becoming a faint skin scent. Tailored for cooler months, it suits formal or smart casual attire and stands out as a uniquely balanced take on classic barbershop fougere with a modern twist.
