Just picked up a sample of this one, it’s hard to describe. It’s somewhere between Aberdeen Lavender and Beach Hut Man. I personally am in love with the lavender-absinthe combo, so I will be picking up a bottle in the near future.

Fougere's don't get much better then this. An absolute classic one of my top 3 of all time.

I just sprayed this for the first time. I'm surprised how much this reminds me of a toned-down Amouage Bracken Man. I like the brilliant Bracken Man more. Interestingly I just received today my shipments of both Fougere Platine and Bracken Man. Deep dark and earthy, almost muddy, fougeres. I don't get that much of the metallic accord, certainly nowhere near as much as, say, Chanel Platinum Egoiste. Hardly any metallic accord. Some have said this is the least fougere-ish of the Tom Ford trilogy. By note structure probably so. But by accords it is probably less "barbershopy" fougere than Beau de Jour and D'Argent, but may even be MORE classically Fougere, by accords. To me it is similar to both Houbigant Fougere Royale (2010) and Amouage Bracken Man. And the Houbigant is by definition the modern reimagination of THE classical genre-defining fragrance, the original 1882 Fougere Royale. I will say this seems to be a pretty weak performer projection and longevity wise. How someone would consider this a 10/10 scent, and maybe a masterpiece, with 9/10 sillage, 9.5/10 longevity is totally beyond me. None of those superlatives. But everyone's perception is different. But still. All in all the worst of the Tom Ford Fougere trilogy. Update: Many months later it seems less and less similar to Amouage Bracken Man and Houbigant Fougere Royale 2010. Don't know how I came to that conclusion months ago. This has tobacco and that is standing out for me now.

Tom Ford's line of Fougères including Beau de Jour are what I consider professional fragrances for men. Fougère Platine is the best Fougère in his lineup and also the most underrated. To me, this is the perfect office scent for someone aged 25-50. This is a multi-season fragrance with one to two sprays only being necessary for the summer months with the lavender, green and citrus notes giving it enough lightness for the humidity. The tobacco, woodsy and olibanum accords give it depth for the colder months and also anchor this fragrance for a massive sillage and duration that's around 10-12 hours, which is something one should demand when shelling over $250+ for an eau de parfum. Having tried Fougère d'Argent, the most promoted fougère, it maybe lasts 5-6 hours if you're lucky; with Beau de Jour cracking around 8 hours tops. This fragrance, however, isn't for everyone, if you're a guy under 25ish especially unaccomplished, this parfum simply outranks you giving you the appearance of a pretender. This is a 25+, tailored suit or business casual, office scent, also suitable for a post-work happy-hour rendez-vous. This has become my preferred year-round signature office/professional scent. Lastly, I'm thrilled this isn't promoted as Fougère d'Argent or Beau de Jour, given I wouldn't want everyone to smell like me. Easily a 10/10 in almost every category. Platinum Fern indeed!

I once was at a concert of a friend of mine, in an open space and was wearing this fragrance. I sprayed this 2 hours before arriving at the concert. My friend was on the stage preparing his instrument, at like 7-8 m. and he spoted me. He stared at me for 5 seconds then came down from the stage and told me that he could smell my fragrance from the stage. This is how this fragrance works in the open spaces.
