Gérard Goupy

"Cacharel pour L'Homme is a classic masculine woody-spicy fragrance launched in 1981. Its character is built around a prominent nutmeg opening, supported by bergamot, lavender, and aromatic clary sage. The heart introduces a richly floral layer of cyclamen, carnation, jasmine, lily-of-the-valley, geranium, and ylang-ylang. A substantial base of fir, amber, musk, oakmoss, vetiver, sandalwood, and cedar gives the fragrance depth and a distinctly vintage profile. The overall impression is aromatic, spicy, woody, earthy, and gently ambered rather than sweet or overtly modern. It remains particularly recognizable for its nutmeg-forward identity and enduring 1980s masculine style."
