Allure Homme is a woody fragrance from the French house Chanel, composed by Jacques Polge and released in 1999. Wood leads, with strong sweet and floral sides and lighter spicy, citrus and herbal touches.

Mandarin, lemon and bergamot open with a bright citrus, and peach and ginger add a soft fruitiness and warmth. The heart is rich and layered, with pepper bringing spice, vetiver and cedar a dry woodiness, and rose and jasmine a smooth floral background. In the base, vanilla, tonka bean and amber create a soft, sweet, creamy warmth, with leather adding a smooth, polished edge.

About half of wearers find its longevity moderate, and most report moderate sillage. It is voted across spring and autumn and worn day and night. This masculine scent suits the office, smart occasions and evenings out, and someone who wants a refined, versatile, softly sweet woody fragrance.
