2021/05/21

I got the chance finally to put my hand this beautiful scent, that I was running after since quiet long time. However, if you are a manly man in his 30's-40's, do check it out, it could be a nice day/work scent. for that reason, i don't wear it out very often. EDT new bottle review. I honestly love the scent, but it's longevity is a huge short coming. I'll update if I do change my mind, but as things stand, this could be a niche fragrance selling for a lot more money, IMO. Okay, I get the hamster bedding reference that some people mention. I get a peppery sequoia smell out if this, which I love, thought I do wish it were more complex. Want it so badly! Citrus, spice, woods, and a lux low-key creamy-powderiness. I blind bought this and it arrived on yesterday and so far I like it, I get the woods that reminded others of the pet store, and I also get the woody fresh smell reported by the others. I love it so much. Probably my fave juniper notes perfume. It smells good, just not for me. and being born into a year-of-the-horse just sealed the metaphorical deal! Projection ("sillage") is moderate at best (I have only tried the EdT), but longevity is quite good (I got some on my shirt and that lasted a very long time). I need to sample it again i had it but barely remember the scent. One of those scents that takes you somewhere when you take a whiff. Extremely solid masculine fragrance. At least man pays more for less in the bottle nowadays!!! Unfortunately, this will be located near the back of my collection due to the overly strong pepper I sense. For me it conjures images of Western Europe in centuries past. That woodsy note is present through all the experience, deserves a full review and provides Equus whit an earthy and balmy odor profile. I blind bought this several years ago because of the horse etching on the bottle. equus lalique redzilla :)Actually,the perfume reminds me of something from the pastlike 90 vibe.It is original,nothing close to todays mass appealing offerings,so youll smell great and original.I must say that Im very,very happy with this purchase,and I would Highly recommend it. A little citrus to keep it bright and fresh, and a lot of woods to keep it hearty and cozy. And that later it just smells like a really nice forest once the fruits wear off. Some say hamster cage or horse stall, but for that to be true, we would need a little civet or something dark, dank and sweaty; this fragrance doesn't have any of those qualities. Very nice fragrance that keeps you feeling positive in a good energy way. Woody, fresh, but sweet. Lalique Pour Homme Equus was launched in 2001. Back at the lodge, you have all the creature comforts of a luxury hotel. Buy it online BIG SALE on or Buy it online 52 items on, Perfume rating4.28out of5 with1,993 votes. But what I found interesting was that at times if I put my nose to my arm I wouldn't smell anything but at other times when I was going about my day, I got whiffs of woods and pepper. Absolutely great and such a luxury scent. You can almost smell the incense-cedar -- an elegant aroma of peace. It opens up with like warm spicy then dry down is musky woody. The overall effect of the opening brings to my mind of indian chai tea (not the Starbucks one) without ginger and sour cream. You are dwarfed by their girth and height. I had sprayed just twice with Equus before leaving my house. Aroma by Costa Brazil: Candidate For Best Fragrance 2022? Equus is only my second blind buy, my first was Thierry Mugler Pure Havana which I love a lot therefore based on reviews on this forum I took a chance with Lalique. 2017 batch is absolutely bogus and very similar to spicebomb !!! Terrific and unique smell, but sits very close to the skinVERY, VERY close in fact, before fading away after about three hours. It is more of a mature scent as well. Bloody amazing! Remarkably, you can enjoy it all year round. I get about 4 hours with soft projection, which is fine, since Equus is quite cheap. For me it is not about the scent alone (which is ABSOLUTELY STUNNING), but also how this makes me feel when I am wearing it. I gave the bottle (which is really nice and heavy) to a coworker, since she liked the scent and could see herself wearing it.

I thought, I hope this settles down and as is at least as nice as Azzaro Visit. I always had hamsters growing up and I just can't get past how similar this smells! This horsey bottle comes with its own fresh hay scent. Unfortunately, Equus is missing that addictive black tea note from GPHII, as well as a bit of the cinnamon smoothness, but the resemblance is still striking. I think DrNDJas's review nailed it.lol! Wow! Lalique never disappoint! In the last three days i revisited my Lalique collection and it's fascinating to trace the line from the first Pour Homme (Lion) through Le Faune and Equus to its White culmination (which to me is the best of the four) Equus is reminiscent of White (if not in smell - though there are plenty of similarities) in its therapeutical effect. I like Equus better than Encre Noir. I have the EDP. It doesn't have a great strength, and it is moderately priced. Overall it is great and I love it, but I would prefer a better longevity.

Since I pretty much loved every Lalique I could sniff, I just bought this one blind even not liking predominantly woody fragrances. Top notes are Bergamot, Lemon and Citron; middle notes are Juniper, Cardamom, Violet Leaf, Nutmeg, Brazilian Redwood and Mace; base notes are Sequoia, Vetiver, Leather, Benzoin, Amyris and Musk. I'm only sad I waited so long to try Lalique's Pour Homme Equus. And Equus has very little similarity to Oscar for Men (1999), which is a very underrated, spicy citrus fragrance that, in addition to not being boring, was a precursor to both later releases of David Beckham Instinct and Terre d'Hermes. The opening smells like you're in a really nice forest, but not a piney one, with a great cologne on. Particularly revolutionary composition. Excellent. When you walk through these giant ancient trees they are not only towering above you, but you walk over their roots and stir up the soil that is also composed of the bark. You will be pleasantly surprised. Fist time i thought i EDT is better than EDP. It is a go-to cold weather casual scent for megreat for flannel shirts, heavy wool sweaters, etc.

A masterpiece in every way. Well, in my case, I get mostly juniper (which I have found I really dislike, too astringent to my nose) with some spices, I get cinnamon, which reminds me of Spicebomb (could be the nutmeg). Even though the bottle was depictured as the older one with the relief horse, I received the newer one with the flat motif. No joke! Later you can distinguish the different lighter additives like juniper or violet. Another winner from Lalique. Possibly the second or third time in many years that I have received an unsolicited compliment like that. At certain times when I wear this, the nutmeg and cardamom become prominent, lending depth and warmth to the composition. On first impression this is a basic fresh woody fragrance. And not so much because of the scent, but because of it's performance. The touch of spices is very comforting. The drydown is incredibly smooth and well balanced, every note seems to sit in the composition perfectly which creates a warm alluring scent. I do have to agree with the "hamster cage" opening, but give the juice 15 minutes to relax on your skin, and you will start to really appreciate it! Amazing fragrance! Just enough leather to toughen it up, but balanced by the violet leaf so it isnt rugged.

If Equus was branded by a niche fragrance it would be sold around 250 euros ! The Sequoia note is dominant in this fragrance. :)Ive learned my homework before,ofcourse,but I was confused too,by the reviewsto some,it was a horse stable,hamster cage beddingand you know what,they were right.But,not in a bad way.It smells similar,but this is a pleasant smell,this is a great perfume.To my nose,i like it more than a lion version,pour homme,which goes in more mature type/vibe category,and its more citrus type,and this one goes to woody type of smell.Dont be afraid of horse stable comments,nothing wrong with the smell,youll smell great,nobody will replace you as you came from horse farm. Its a comforting smell that has something to it that seems just slightly feminine to me. It is a nice scent , very dependent on the weather conditions. I find it to be similar to Givenchy pour homme red label. It's afforfablr, but i wish it will be last longer on my skin. An awesome classy fresh yet woody spicy fragrance in fact that's an understatement it is a truly regal scent.The spices mix with the vibrant luminous citruses to give off an almost fizz or effervescence and in combination with the strong woods gives a aristocratic presence.Apparently it is similar to Creeds Spice and Wood which I am not sure of but I know one thing this is a quality scent. It certainly does not smell cheap, in fact very unique. Casual tee or dress up. I had a sample of the fragrance in EDT, and the performance was very poor, so bought a bottle of EDP. But I love the fragrance itself, far more than I expected to. But to me it smells like a refined version of Quorum Silver. Science Says Maybe, From the Gardens of Versailles to the Gardens of Babylon; The Allure of Olfactory Exploration Beckons at Jardin de Parfums, Priceless Perfume Bottles: An Auction of Poetry in Glass, The Ghost Perfumer by Gabe Oppenheim: on Creed & The Industry, a Book Review. It's masculine, subtle and elegant. If you ever opened a new pack of cigarettes and took a whiff of it, then you are close to knowing how Equus smells. That wonderful tree, sap, juniper smell that is perfectly balanced and enjoyable, comforting, like a big hug from a forest.

It's fresh like a forest, yet spicy.

I knew on the day it arrived that based on the notes it was a pure gamble all for a pretty pony in glass. But wait 15 mins (after the wet opening) and you will be drawn into a more rich and deep wood-note.

Wow! This is ok at best but nothing to write home about. I finaly found my signature fragrance!! A faint whisper of violet upon deep inhalation. A big dose of lemony citrus with woods starts the fragrance off. However I understand that my EDP is a pale reformulation of some previous gorgeous fragrance (the colour of which was pinkish comparing to its reformulation). It's like why would you say it's juniper, mace, cardamon etc. The base is very nice, but the unusually long-lasting heart is what shines in this work of art. I would absolutely not worry about over spraying this and in all seriousness, that may be required for even minimal projection. It has a sparkly zing in its opening that is very interesting. The gin like juniper appears lending a bit of a boozy note and then the pleasant spices of cardamon and nutmeg merge with some tart but smooth citrus. After reading all the comments and since I like Encre Noire I bought the Equus EDP blind - expecting a dry, very masculine scent. Because of this mature vibe and me only being 19 I feel like this is a special occasion scent, maybe as I get older I may wear a bit more liberally. The bootle is a glassware masterpiece. More like a very expensive glass of cool lemon-lime juice. There are some notes I absolutely love in all their incarnations (like neroli) while others I just plain cannot stand if they are too prominent - and violet leaf is one of them. . Spicy, oriental and unisex. Equus brings a multi-faceted woodsiness -- as in that almost acidic, pickle-juice cedar/redwood tempered with the greenness of juniper. A lot extraordinary things are happening there in the middle notes, there's kind of hard to describe ingredients in this mixture as it smells so good together. At the most it stays woody with burned leathery nuance. It is quite dynamic. This smells EXACTLY like Karl Lagerfeld Bois de Vetiver, but a tad less sweet. what a disappointment. actually this scent is very good, so now i am pissed off. It's kind of delicate unfortunatelly, but everytime you smell yourself - you feel the class.

30+ men fragrance. EDT is a very nice woody scent, lots of cedar-like depth, slight natural sweetness that is dry and not cloying. Also, I really like the bottle. There's a bit of sweetness in it too to keep it a bit on the sexy side. They are very similar, and I will wear and enjoy them both, but the newer version is just nicer to me. I love this blend of juniper and cardamon, which reminds me of Hermes d'Voyage. If you was once a horse owner you know the smell of cleaning a horse stall. (Emilie Bevierre Coppermann, 2001). If you are under 25y/o don't blind buy this. This is quickly followed by a violet leaf which melds with the spicy wood aroma. Dark, alluring and sensual.

I highly recommend Equus! I hate the usual, "masculine," strong woody fragrances, and I don't like violet leaf, but this fragrance is very well done, about as good as it gets if you like balanced,.dynamic, natural smelling ones, as I do. It feels grown-up. At long last, something has filled the Gucci Pour Homme II shaped hole in my heart, and I'm overjoyed.

(EDP) On my skin I get a lot of vetiver from this after the citrus opening dies down. It is actually quite sweet and its longevity is 8hrs on my skin. This is a bit of a one dimensional sequoia scent, but it is very well done and unique in its detailed recreation of this particular wood. Enough musk underneath to keep it interesting, too. Intoxicating projection for many hours, strong sillage. The floor carpeted with dead fallen pine leaves that feel cushy underfoot. Tons of wood with a bit of citrus; light but strong, if that makes sense. From the perfume top I get very little citrus and a huge blast of nutmeg. Also, the bottle is gorgeous! Tobacco scent without tobacco note. Spring, summer, day or night. Sequoia: I would never have imagined it! I'm guessing this was recently reformulated because I got really terrible performance which my bottle which kind of ruined the fragrance for me.

Soft sillage and projection. This was certainly ahead of the curve for 2001. Spice bomb opening, Issey Miyake L'eau Bleue Pour Homme middle, and Encre Noir dry down. Spicy woods. I'm so glad that I have it in my collection. Not generic woods - the smells of nature. It's more airy than I expected and this quality makes it signature-scent worthy and suitable all year-round.

I describe Equus as a walk through a high-end horse stable, with just fresh hay and no horses, but idealized with a sprinkle of sugar dust. Like I'm sure many others, upon initial application I was a bit put off by what registers as a strong cedar aroma. It's a modern mature feeling that it gives off. It's targeted to younger men in compare to Lion EDP. Rays of sunlight that stream through the dense foliage, twinkling off drops of dew. Blended to perfection, this is a delight to wear. It is great! Fragrantica Inc, United States. very well blended and very good longevity on my skin. People who love wood colognes will probably like this a lot. I adore Spicebomb, and this definitely reminds me of that, but my husband also detected some Cowboy Grass in it, which is also another love for me. LaLique Equus is a woody, herbal fragrance but not at all bitter and while herbal it is nothing like an '80's powerhouse and thankfully nothing like the insipid fruity, vanilla or unisex fragrances that many seem to like today. That is what its all about. I have new bottle of this with horse head painted over the bottle. Become a member of this online perfume community and you will be able to add your own reviews. This one (EdP) smells like a circus arena or a hamster cage. I mostly get citrus, light floral and cedar. Based on great review about Lalique Pour Homme Equus, I got this as a blind buy and disappointed. I can call it the younger brother of lalique pour homme. In the best way. I have revisited this many times to rein in what I was smelling and adjust to this strange, spicy, mysterious new scent. The nose behind this fragrance is Emilie (Bevierre) Coppermann.

Like a love you know is wrong for you but you just can't resist her soft violet touch. Blown away by how brilliantly unique this beautiful fragrance is. You are used to the fresh citrus smells from 2000' like Versace Eau Fraiche, Coolwater copycats, heavy classics from the 80', many perfumes beares the same vibe. Birds chirp, and the sounds echo through the mile long land that never seems to end in the horizon. This perfume has a well-balanced composition . There seems to be a bit of a vanilla/ambery aspect that eventually comes out, softening it up and providing a little sweetness. In my opinion it is the 'colder' version of lalique white, they smell similar but this one has more depth.

I love Lalique and I love Equus as a unique fragrance but the execution (longevity/sillage) really leaves much to desired. This was a blind buy (for 7 dollars), and it just came in the mail.. and Im in love. But on the drydown (within a few minutes) the scent becomes one of realistic wood accord (I'm guessing this is the sequoia) with sweet nutmeg and violet leaf. Yet it does have a transitional character, feels a bit incomplete. Im pretty far imto the drydown and i get spice and wood mixed with a light touch of creed origional vetiver. Lalique Equus is a gift to the lover of dark woody scents like the much-lamented Yves Saint Laurent M7. Also that it's a more affordable, everyday-wear sport version of Creed Royal Oud. Safe blind buy? It is a very subtle elegant and woody fragrance although i would not say it is particularly masculine. Sillage is moderate as is longevity (on the lower end for a eau de parfum). It's a knockout. Lalique Equus has been on my Wishlist for some time because Id heard their perfume house was known for very subtle, even delicate blends that evolved over time and the rumours I heard were true: Another winner from Lalique! Love the engraving. Not sure what sequoia smells like, but the combination of woods, leather, violet leaf and spice notes exude quality at every stage.

It always catches my eye as I reach for a Chanel and tempts me to "sample just a litl' more." One of my favorites. This fragrance captures this vibe so well. Epicene Gamma IFF: The Common Part of Spicy Men's Colognes of the 1980s. It is lasting and really stayed on my skin very well. I like Pour Homme Equus EDP better than edt. I blind bought Equus for two reasons, I was impressed with Encre Noir, and the price. Cashmere, benzoin and amyris round out the base, and the fragrance maintains it's sweetness, is still woody, with citrus and pine (that's the Amyris). Take a well appointed Kentucky horse stable, 100 gerbil cages, and infuse their essence into Charles Bronson's 1970s wood paneled parlor. This is not a scent for everyone but if you like others in the Lalique family you will understand this one. 8.5/10. It reminds me of only ONE thing - HAMSTER CAGE BEDDING! If you have any cheerful memories connected with circus you'll love it too. Much more likely to impress than to offend. LaLique Equuscan be worn for many situations and occasions, forma, work or even romance and could be a signature fragrance for the right man. Truly worth for the name it bears and lasting creation of all times. There is no cedar listed in the pyramid but my nose definitely detects that vibe but the familiar redeeming note of cardamom is also here and it smooths Equus out along with faint citrus and lightly sweet juniper berries. This is lovely, again Lalique doesn't disappoint! Can anyone advise what difference there is in scent and performance between the EDP and EDT? Clean, brisk, wonderful, so unlike anything else I have. Projection is weak after 2 hours; but stays long time (EDP). To my nose, the opening is dominated by a peppery note, and the citruses are hidden behind it. The overall impression oddly is of a cappaccino. The opening is bright, woody and a bit sour with the juniper berry, woods and vetiver (smells a little like freshly dried hay). Walking through an old sequoia forest, surrounded by those massive trees. Equus is no different. The most prominent component is a mild cedar/redwood scent, but aside from that Equus doesn't hit me with strong individual notes. I have a bottle with a few sprays missing if anyone is interested in a swap. To me this smells like trees in a forest mixed with petrol and pepper.

Then comes great Base - with luxurious woody /leathery/soapy musk. Does anyone know anything about that? This is more appropriate for a mature man, not necessarily an older man but a mature man. It's a pity. Love it! Such a luxury scent, absolutely love it. If my thoughts on PHE seem uncertain it's because they are but one thing is certain my opinion of this beautiful bottle itself will always draw me in for just one more spray. Please read the Terms of Service and Privacy policy. For the money, this is a fine fragrance worthy of some time spent exploring its many angles.

This smells very similar to Zwitsal, the baby oil that I used when I am still in kindergarden.
