🇫🇷 French Perfumes!😶‍🌫 Long Lasting and Intense Scents!👍 Fraction of the Cost of Designer Fragrances

PRODUCT DETAILS

Pleasure is bottled as a 50 ml eau de parfum with close to 20% fragrance oil. It costs €25, the same price on every scent we make, whatever the original behind it. Free shipping applies from €49, and delivery takes 2 to 5 working days.

Guilty Pour Homme is sold as an eau de parfum, and Pleasure matches that concentration, stronger than an eau de toilette or EDT and further from a light eau de cologne, though not as intense as an extrait de parfum. The orange flower heart, or middle notes, is what bridges the sharp opening and the woody base.

Longevity runs 5 to 8 hours, with strong projection early on and a sillage that settles closer to the skin later. French fragrance oils, handmade in small batches, vegan and cruelty free. You get 15 days to exchange it if it isn't right for you.

NOTES

Top notes

Lavender, lemon

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Pleasure is our perfume dupe of Guilty Pour Homme by Gucci, made for men who want a sharp lavender opening that softens into something warmer as it wears. It opens on lavender and lemon, moves into an orange flower heart, and settles on cedarwood, patchouli and vanilla.

The lavender and lemon combination is what people notice first, crisp and a little soapy rather than sweet. The floral heart keeps things from turning too herbal, and once the top fades the base takes over, warm and woody rather than sweet.

Pleasure is our fragrance dupe of Gucci Guilty Pour Homme, and on skin the lavender-lemon accord reads close enough that most reviews of Gucci dupes mention it by name. It is a solid alternative for anyone who wants that opening without buying the Gucci original every few months, and reviews of the fragrance keep circling back to the same lavender heart.

Perfume concentration

EDT, EDP or EXDP - what you are actually buying

The difference between these labels is not quality but how much perfume oil sits in the bottle. That decides how long the scent stays on your skin and how far it travels.

EDT Eau de Toilette 5 to 15% perfume oil

The lightest of the three. It opens fresh and fast, but fades after three to five hours. Pleasant in heat and at the office, as long as you top it up during the day.

Our choiceEDP Eau de Parfum ~20% perfume oil

The middle ground that became the standard. It lasts six to eight hours, one spray in the morning is enough, and the scent stays recognisable into the evening without filling the room.

EXDP Extrait de Parfum 20 to 40% perfume oil

The densest form, worn in drops, and it can last over ten hours. In return it loses that easy opening, and the price per bottle climbs the most.

Why we chose EDP

Every Chez Pierre perfume is made in Eau de Parfum concentration, with 20% perfume oil. That is not by accident.

An eau de toilette would mean carrying the bottle with you and refreshing the scent after lunch. An extrait would push the price up, and only someone counting hours would notice the gain. EDP sits exactly in between: one spray in the morning carries the whole working day, and the scent opens and develops instead of settling on the skin at once.

So we don't make lighter and pricier versions of the same scent. We make one, in the concentration where that scent works best.

How a perfume is measured

Longevity, projection and sillage

Three things describe every perfume, whatever the price or the name on the bottle. Once you separate them, it is easier to say what you actually want from a scent.

01

Longevity

How many hours the scent stays on skin

Measured from the moment you spray to the moment you can no longer smell it up close. It depends on the concentration, but also on your skin: on dry skin every perfume lasts less, so a dab of unscented cream before spraying helps.

02

Projection

How far it travels around you

Strongest in the first hour, it tells you how much space the scent takes up. Big projection is great for evenings and colder days, while at the office or in a meeting it usually gets in the way more than it helps.

03

Sillage

The trail you leave behind

Pronounced „see-yazh“, it means the trail a scent leaves behind you. It is the reason someone turns around as you pass. A perfume can last a long time and still leave a small trail, and the other way round.

Strong is not the same as good. A perfume with huge projection quickly tires both you and the people around you, while one without any trail stays your own private thing.

That is why every one of our perfume descriptions says how it wears, not only how it smells.

CHOOSE YOUR LIFESYLE

Pleasure

Inspired by: Guilty, Gucci

Pleasure works well from autumn into winter, when the warm base has room to stand out, though the lavender and lemon opening keeps it fresh enough for summer too. One spray in the morning usually carries it through the day.

It reads as a masculine scent for men, though its softer floral side means some women wear it as well, closer to unisex than most classic aromatic fragrances.

Pleasure works as a scent for him first, though it is not unheard of for her either, since the orange flower keeps it from reading purely masculine. It never turns properly feminine, but the softer edges make it wearable for anyone who likes lavender. At €25 it is an affordable way into a luxury leaning aromatic without the Gucci price tag.

Choose our Inspiration

Gucci is an Italian design house, and Guilty Pour Homme arrived as the men's side of its Guilty line, built around the idea of living without apology. It has stayed one of its most recognised fragrances since, sitting alongside the biggest names in designer and niche perfumery.

Most people just call it Guilty. It's one of the originals that perfume dupes, sometimes called clones, are chasing hardest, thanks to that unmistakable lavender opening.

Why choose us?

Pleasure is our alternative to Guilty Pour Homme. It smells like the original and is filled by hand in small batches using French fragrance oils, at a price that keeps this everyday fragrance affordable.

We only make it as an eau de parfum, since that's the strength this kind of warm, woody composition needs to hold up. Delivery takes 2 to 5 working days here too. If it isn't similar to what you remember, send it back within 15 days and we'll sort an exchange.
