Classic Fougère

Fougère Royale by HoubigantHoubigantFougère Royale3.950 ratings

Got a 5ml decant recently. First time I wore it, I liked it but was unsure about it. After a few more wears, I love it. It’s classic but modern smelling. Would not recommend for gentlemen under 30. Mature fragrance. I spray it heavy, and it’s a bit cloying for the first 15-20 minutes. Once it settles down, it’s gorgeous. Will be adding a full bottle to my collection.
