Homme Nature 
Yves Rocher (1999)

Uplifting, Fresh and creamy!

Wow! What can I say? I never expected such a beautiful scent resulting out of such a small amount of my money but I only needed to look up the perfumist for Homme Nature to know I was in good hands: Pierre Bourdon, the master himself!

The scent starts with a super fresh blast of Bergamot and mint with a slight cucumber note keeping everything super airy in the back. It then calms down to a slightly sweeter floral version of the initial smell backed by woods and ivy. The freshness persists in the drydown while the absolutely sublime and natural smelling sandalwood and oakmoss can be felt all the way to the end.

I've really become fond of this scent and it was my signature all summer long I never get tired of it so refined, friendly and uplifting. An absolute bargain bin masterpiece for the warmer weather!

Longevity: Pretty good! 8-10 hours Projects for about 2-3 hours and then becomes a skin scent.

Sillage: Pretty splended for a couple of hours after application. Later becomes more of a skin scent but still noticeable enough for another 3-4 hours. This was with around 5 sprays each use.

To me this fragrance was really a surpise looking at the quality to price ratio!
Got this almost for free in the Yves Rocher Shop (€8 or something like that for 50ml) here in NL.
Made out of mainly natural ingredients, this fragrance smells really green, little herbal and fresh!
A clean green woody herbal indeed as one calls it that starts with a cucumber like smell that is surrounded quickly by mainly sage, mint and ivy. The base of moss and sandalwood makes it smell masculine and like you walk in a forrest with a fresh but mossy like smell with a little herbal sweetness to it! Very natural and green indeed! It is not unisex to me, lasts about 5 hours and sillage is average. Best to be used in the summer but can also easily be used during spring and fall! Thumbs up for this good stuff! Rated: 8/10

Smell: 7 out of 10 It's not as cucumber-ish as I thought, it's the ivy/sage/sandalwood that's on the foreground. It may have a little mint, but the fragrance is mostly 'green' and mildly herbal.

Longevity: 5 out of 10 I mostly get 45 minutes of projection and a 5-7 h total, with the fragrance sticking close to my skin.

Versatility: 8 out of 10 Good for office/casual use, bad for dates and high class events.

Conclusion: The mild herbs makes it a casual scent for men. Yves Rocher offers decent quality for a very affordable price.

Bought this after sampling because it is very light and fresh and a contrast to the heavier smoke and spice scents I normally gravitate towards. HOMME NATURE presents as crisp green things- cucumber, mint, grasses. It is very linear in its' profile and does not necessarily evolve much during wear. Dry down
notes project a slight green pepper and astringent quality that is unique and refreshing. The entire thing dissipates rapidly and longevity is no more than 5-6 hours. This could be good or bad depending on purpose for wear. Very suitable for daytime or work. Could easily apply another fragrance over it later in the day or to "punch it up" initially. HOMME NATURE is versatile and that can be its' appeal.
