Vaughn made an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Wednesday to promote his new Netflix movie Nonnas, set to debut on Netflix on May 9.

When Fallon asked how Pacino was, Vaughn revealed, ‘I love Al Pacino. I did a movie with him. He’s terrific. I have to say this, he smells fabulous.’

During the show, Vaughn mentioned, ‘He smells like a high-end cologne counter in Italy. He has an incredible smell. The whole aroma is unbelievable,’ which caught Fallon by surprise.

The actor mentioned he wasn’t the only one singing the praises of Pacino’s indelible aroma.

‘And people had noticed this, I mean, many things about him. He’s a tremendous guy. Very easy to be around. But smells matter,’ Vaughn insisted.

Fallon further inquired if Vaughn had conveyed to Pacino that he smelled great, to which Vaughn responded, ‘Yes. A lot of people would be around us and tell him that he smelled fantastic.’

‘He smells fantastic. And then, so, the question would come up which is, you know, “What’s the cologne?”‘ Vaughn added.

He said the actor was, ‘tight lipped’ about his particular smell, adding, ‘He’d say, “I have to try to remember.” He doesn’t want to share that fabulous smell.’

Vaughn added that Pacino would say, ‘I’m trying to leave a legacy,’ adding, ‘So he was protecting his smells.’

Fallon said that he had to bring Vaughn back when he was promoting Easy’s Waltz, as Vaughn joked, ‘a smelling line would be fabulous.’

Their film Easy’s Waltz marks the feature directorial debut for True Detective creator Nic Pizzolatto.

The story follows a, ‘down-on-his-luck crooner’ who is given a huge comeback shot by an ‘old-school Vegas personality.’

Pacino will next be seen in The Ritual with Dan Stevens and Ashley Greene, in theaters nationwide June 6.

Vaughn has Nonnas launching in a few weeks and he’s in pre-production on The Bookie & the Bruiser with Adrien Brody.
