Paul Smith: Paul Smith Story, Perfume For Men

I’ve really liked Paul Smith Story 

The last perfume for men of the fashion designer Paul Smith, I’m a huge fan. First the original minimalist packaging brings us to a world : a white box to open like a book with a first black page.

I take of the refined rectangular bottle, really nice to keep in hands, transparency game, light tinted fragrance. Modern. The bottle looks like a paperback or small note book where the fragrance is the thread and the skin, the imaginative world. Exciting metaphor.

I smell. First the scent is really strong and masculine, then slowly melts in the skin like ice leaving a discrete, but heady presence. Smart. A fragrance for a confident gentleman who prefers seducing in a discrete way than a provocative away. An eau de toilette that finishes a silhouette, participating in the daily appearance, without being in the limelight.

Over the day, the smell on skin becomes absolutely irresistible. Gentlemen, for the most addictive of you, there are also the all over Shampoo, after-save Lotion and after-shave balm. By the way, don’t forget the suit and the casual attitude for a perfect Paul Smith finish!

Paul Smith: Paul Smith Story, parfum pour homme

J’ai aimé Paul Smith Story 

Je suis fane de la dernière eau de toilette pour homme du créateur éponyme. D’abord il y a l’emballage minimaliste, original qui amène vers un univers : boîte blanche qui s’ouvre comme un livre sur une première page noire, signée du nom du créateur.

Je sors le flacon rectangulaire aux lignes épurées, très agréable à prendre en main, jeu de transparence, fragrance à peine teintée. Moderne. Il s’agit d’un livre ou carnet dont l’odeur est le fil conducteur et la peau son imaginaire. Excitante mise en condition qui habille l’odeur. Je sens.

Très forte, très masculine, l’odeur se fond lentement sur la peau comme un glaçon, pour ne laisser qu’une présence discrète mais entêtante. Elégante. Qui s’associe à un homme préférant une séduction plus désinvolte que provocante. Une eau de toilette qui finit une silhouette, lui donnant du relief, elle participe à la mise en forme quotidienne sans en voler la vedette.

Au fil de la journée, l’odeur sur la peau devient absolument craquante. Pour les plus accros, se décline en gel douche, lotion et baume après-rasage. Pour un finish très Paul Smith, ne manque que le costume et la décontraction !

Nickel, Paris: Face Treatments For Men

Gentlemen, I’d really like to make you discover

those serious face treatments, with great funny names! A early thirties friend’s told me about Nickel few months ago, as: The best label. I’ve discovered it in the French magazine for men, Optimum. Efficient products for us, without too much blablabla…”.

True, considering the name of products: “Bonne Gueule “ (Good Face), the moisturizer. “Moorning After Rescue Gel” (in French “Lendemain de Fête” literately means “Moorning after partying”): to have a good complexion. “Fire Insurance”: the after shave cream! And “Super Clean”: the scrubbing gel.

So I ask five friends (from 20 to 37) to test those products. And the younger as the older wanted to have the same: a clean and comfortable skin and don’t look tired. Afraid to age? Cool, the stress has gained our male friends.

And the winner is the “Moorning After Rescue Gel “ all of them found it great! Just one problem: the “expensive price” I quote. For us, the ladies: if those skin cares can help you gentlemen, not to take our very very expensive specific super efficient creams, so we do love Nickel too!

Don’t we say somewhere in a Disney harem: an immaculate clean man’s worth three, do we? Mmm I guess: a well-manner and nicely shod and  immaculate and clean gentleman’s worth two… No: three! You’ve been warned!
