Boucheron Boucheron Pour Homme

The Bottle

Boucheron Pour Homme has a broad, upright rectangular bottle with rounded lower corners and a gently curved shoulder. Pale yellow liquid shows through the transparent-looking body, while a dark blue domed top sits over a gold-toned ribbed collar. The black centered lettering is restrained; the contrasting closure gives this otherwise conventional shape some character.

Original or Clone

Francis Deleamont, Jean-Pierre Bethouart and Raymond Chaillan give Boucheron Pour Homme a clear authored identity that an interpretation cannot carry over. Its citrus, aromatic and woody accords give the composition a recognizable outline, but those broad categories cannot replace the work credited to three named perfumers. The bottle has some character too, though not enough to decide the purchase on its own. With one interpretation from one house tracked, the evidence supports choosing the original for authorship, while leaving resemblance unjudged.
