Zadig & Voltaire This Is Him, Sample
This Is Him by Zadig & Voltaire is an Amber Woody fragrance crafted for the modern man, launched in 2016 by the talented perfumers Nathalie Lorson and Aurelien Guichard. This much talked about scent is a unique masculine designer fragrance that opens with the sharpness of black pepper, which adds a bold, spicy kick that immediately captures attention. The peppery note is beautifully balanced by the bright, zesty aroma of grapefruit, creating an invigorating and dynamic introduction.
As the fragrance progresses to its heart, the smoky allure of incense envelops the senses, lending an air of mystery and depth. This is softened by the creamy warmth of vanilla, which adds a touch of sweetness and smoothness, enhancing the complexity of the scent. The interplay between the incense and vanilla creates a compelling contrast that feels both modern and timeless.
In its dry-down, This Is Him settles into a rich base of sandalwood, which imparts a creamy, woody finish. This base note provides a solid foundation, grounding the fragrance with its comforting and elegant character. Together, these notes blend to create a modern masculine scent with an aura of classiness and good taste, leaving a lasting impression of sophistication and subtle intrigue.
