Mauboussin Pour Lui in Red

Mauboussin Pour Lui in Red is a woody aromatic marketed for men, released by the French jeweller Mauboussin in 2022. Woody is how everyone describes it, and a third also find it spicy, floral, aromatic, leathery or citrusy, which describes a classic masculine structure with a few extra touches.

Bergamot opens it with a clean citrus brightness, and juniper berries and ginger add a dry, gin-like coolness and a warm, slightly sharp spice. Lavender and geranium form the aromatic heart, the lavender soapy and herbal, the geranium green and faintly rosy, a pairing familiar from traditional fougères. Leather adds a smooth, slightly smoky richness in the middle, and the base is dry and solid: cedar for a pencil-like wood, sandalwood for a creamier softness, and vetiver for a smoky, rooty depth.

It is a scent for daytime and the cooler months, for men who like the barbershop style of lavender and woods with a little leather for warmth.
