In a nutshell

Description & review snapshot

Homem Elo by Natura is a woody aromatic men's fragrance that leans into a modern, textured take on classic fougere notes. It centers on an herbal lavender opening supported by vetiver and patchouli, settling into a clean, resinous base. This 2023 release from perfumer Verônica Kato feels professional enough for office…

Reviews →

LabHouse Viridescent opens with a sharp burst of grapefruit and black pepper before shifting into a woodsy heart of cedarwood and geranium. Soil-rich oakmoss, earthy vetiver, and warm amber settle into a salty, green base. It suits cool spring mornings and overcast autumn days when you want a grounded, aromatic aura.
