Good clubbing scent, aptly named
In the Club for Him is my third sampling of Encounter Scents, and once again, it’s aptly named, a sort of sweet citrus nutty spicy woody scent. There’s somehow a juicy/boozy quality to it, as well. It feels like a nighttime scent, midway between formal and informal, but year-round friendly.
It’s an odd mix of notes but they create a loud experience that feels very apropos for a club. There’s sharpness from the lavender and mint, dirtiness from the clary sage and tobacco, sweetness from the pear and vanilla, spiciness from cinnamon. It’s quite sweet, overall—perhaps too sweet for those unfamiliar with this type of scent, but very much on-target for a clubbing-type scent.
In that vein, In the Club for Him reminds me vaguely of Jean Paul Gaultier Ultra Male and Paco Rabanne 1 Million but is surely quite different from both, and worth trying, especially, if you dig clubbing scents.
I find Compliment for Him and Confidence for Him, the other two Encounter Scents offerings that I’ve tried so far, to be more agreeable, with In the Club for Him being a bit edgier and more particular, and it’s slightly stronger than the other two, as well, but priced the same, at $85 for 100ml in extrait concentration, with discounts of 15% (or potentially greater) available.
