American Fougère Royale?
That was the first thing that crossed my mind while reading the fragrance pyramid (camomile). But that was relativized quite quickly during testing:
The scent describes - I use a picture - a well-groomed gentleman in Tweed + Cord leaving his Range Rover to go shopping. Harrod's, of course. Where else?
Somehow HfH reminds also of British landscapes, these beautiful rolling hills with the double hedges for the birds and the natural stone walls. So somehow VERY BRITISH, they did a good job with Bond.
The start with chamomile and additional spices is creamy and not too bright despite the star anise. Very pleasant to smell and the heart note with further - somewhat more bitter - spice, lavender/violet leaf adds green notes, which are supported in the base with high-quality leather and sandalwood. Discreet aquatics is also present at the end. Very valuable!
A restrained scent from the scents ... I see this very natural looking (despite surely existing synthetic) scent on a Mr. 40++. HfH is not boring .. rather solid in the sense of cultivated-conservative.
Bel Ami, Fougère Royale but also Grey Flannel are alternatives.
Thank you Angelliese!!
