Brut Eau de Toilette 100ml is one of the longest-running men's grooming classics in the world — originally launched by Fabergé in 1964 and still in continuous production. Composed by Karl Mann, this aromatic-fougère is the original "essence of men" cologne: lemon, bergamot, lavender, anise and basil opening through a heart of geranium, jasmine and ylang-ylang, settling onto a deep base of sandalwood, oakmoss, vetiver, patchouli, tonka bean and vanilla. Familiar to a generation of British men from its iconic green bottle.
About Brut
Created by Fabergé in Paris in 1964 and now produced by Brut Parfums Prestige, Brut became one of the defining men's grooming classics of the 20th century. The brand's distinctive green-and-silver bottle has remained largely unchanged for decades, and Brut continues to be sold in barbershops, supermarkets and high-street pharmacies across the UK.

Who it's for
Brut suits men who like classical aromatic-fougère colognes — those who reach for lavender, oakmoss and tonka over modern fresh-aquatics. It is at its best in autumn and winter but works year-round as a familiar daily wear, and represents excellent value for one of the longest-running men's classics still in production. A sentimental favourite for many British wearers.
How to use
- Hold the bottle around 15 cm from the skin.
- Spray onto pulse points — wrists, neck, chest.
- Three to four sprays balance presence and longevity for the eau de toilette concentration.
- Reapply through the day; eau de toilette sits closer to the skin than EDP.
