Italian house Costume National has launched Free d’Homme, a new oriental amber fragrance for men.
A fragrance which embodies rebirth. A man who reinvents himself and abandons any kind of stereotype to express his authentic self. A new cowboy is born, a modern and metropolitan man, sporty and casual, who reinvents his style by playing down conventions. What he rides is no longer a horse, but his motorbike. He has tamed his fears and uncertainties, and now he walks towards his destiny with his head held high.
The perfume opens with the sparkling energy of lemon oil Sfumatrice Primofiore, which offers particularly refreshing, joyful and dazzling facets, and lime oil from Mexico, with its lemon, green and cola notes.
The heart, just as elegant as it is wild, contrasts the radiant note of saffron flower accord, which brings its warm, spicy, floral and slightly leathery tones, with the powerful woody, animalic and leathery notes of Cypriol.
Warm and powerful facets give depth to the whole composition with Ciste Absolute LMR and its ambery, sweet notes, with leather accents, and the amazing Mystic Incense accord created by the parfumeur, with spicy, woody, resinous and balsamic scents.
Free d’Homme was developed by perfumer Julien Rasquinet.
Costume National Free d’Homme is available in 50 and 100 ml Eau de Parfum.

That is a *fantastic* name and I can’t believe I’ve never heard it used before.
I’ve never smelled a Costume National scent that interested me but you never know.
I would buy 21 in a minute if I saw it someplace cheap — in person, that is. Have not totally loved another, but have not smelled most of the really recent outings.
Isn’t it clever?
