Neroli-lemon-clary-sage composition in the Pour Homme family; cleaner musk.
masculine

Bergamot and neroli open clean and slightly tart, with lemon keeping things bright without veering into cleaning-product territory. The heart softens into a well-balanced accord of rose, hyacinth, and clary sage — floral but never feminine, with geranium adding a faint green sharpness that keeps the composition grounded. Cedar anchors the dry-down to something genuinely woody rather than synthetic, while musk trails quietly with moderate sillage. Projection is polite — noticeable but never loud — and longevity sits around four to six hours. — A reliable warm-weather daily driver, best suited to office environments or casual social settings where subtlety reads as confidence.

The most-cited dupe for Pour Homme is Fakher by Lattafa. It is not community-scored yet, so we do not list an accuracy or longevity number for it — treat it as an untested budget take rather than a verified match.
Every dupe is rated on two independent dimensions: scent accuracy (how closely it matches the original) and longevity (how long it lasts on skin). Scores are aggregated from community consensus on Reddit r/fragrance, r/fragranceclones, and Fragrantica. They are never averaged into a single number — accuracy and longevity are separate decisions.
