Guerlain L'Homme Idéal Cologne Forte

Finally got this one in! I've been wearing it for about a week and I gotta say, it's a winner. This line is one of my favorites, and Guerlain rarely disappoints (in my opinion).

It opens with a bright and icy citrus (similar to LV Imagination, but more icy), then dries into a clean vetiver/incense. The signature almond note is present throughout the scent.

It performs pretty well, I get 6+ hours usually. Complement factor is average, it's no slouch but nothing special. Overall a very versatile, crisp, and clean fragrance suitable for any occasion.

Final verdict: 8/10. Love the direction they went in for this flanker. Only problem is availability.
