Azzaro Pour Homme Eau de Toilette 100ml is one of the great aromatic-fougère men's classics of the late 20th century — composed in 1978 by Gérard Anthony and Richard Wirtz under the direction of Loris Azzaro, and considered the benchmark of the aromatic-fougère category. The composition opens with lavender, lemon, caraway, basil, bergamot and star anise, develops through a spicy heart of vetiver, cedar, patchouli, sandalwood and juniper, and settles onto a deep base of oakmoss, leather, amber, musk and tonka bean.
About Azzaro
Founded in Paris in 1965 by Tunisian-Italian designer Loris Azzaro, the house built its reputation on glamorous evening wear and accessories. Its perfumery line — anchored by Azzaro Pour Homme (1978) and Chrome (1996) — extends that confident aesthetic into fragrance, with Pour Homme remaining one of the longest-running and most-loved men's classics ever made.

Who it's for
Azzaro Pour Homme suits men who appreciate classical fragrances — those who reach for lavender, oakmoss and leather over modern fresh-aquatics or sweet gourmands. It is a dressy daytime-into-evening wear, especially good in autumn and winter, with the kind of polished maturity that has kept it on shelves for nearly fifty years. A reference fragrance for anyone exploring the aromatic-fougère family.
