Self proclaimed Amouage Fan Boy BUT for some reason, I seldom reach for Epic Man. Yet, every time I wear it, I wonder why I don’t wear it much more often! 🤷🏽 In fact, I’m wearing it today and loving it. Loving it so much that I had to turn to a trusted nose in order to better understand why I might love it so. You two nailed it. So many Reviewers refer to it as animatic and challenging and beast mode. I get fresh, piney, & incense goodness. If I still believed in signature scents, this could be one! Taking a mini vacay (long weekend) and might wear this again for travel day. PS- My thoughts for today were this or King Blue…glad I chose Epic Man
My take away from your comment was....I'm a 'trusted nose'🙏🏽😇 made me feel happy to read that. I'm honoured that you feel that way. And yes, Epic Man is like a loved and trusted friend. You might see each other for months or years, but as soon as you connect together; you pick up where you left off and wonder (as you did) "why don't we hang out more often??!" Thanks for sharing George, loved reading your comments on this glorious fragrance; personally a staple for all men over 30😎
epic is one of my all time favorites. its very masculline, classy but with a touch of new age. powerful and mature. i love it and I think you described it very acurately as you always do!!
This is so cool I just got mine today I was definitely expecting something more green and peppery but on the opening I got a warm saffron menthol incense type of smell will update in a bit as I just sprayed it on. Does anyone else get this sweetness on the opening? The reviews had me ready for an exciting polarizing pepper bomb opening but this is nice as well.
Yep, totally agree with you @megasoid, this is a brilliant fragrance; it's one of those perfumes that I love to wear when I want to feel "como un hombre" 💪🏽
What an amazing blend Gabriel! I'm going to have to try this. I do love layering these 'silhouette' style of fragrances (like Clive Christian's X)....thanks for the idea😎
I really like epic man . Definitely has some punch and so it should . If I’m paying them prices I want something with presence epic man definitely ticks that box . Nice review guys 👍
Thanks Sean...had a feeling this one would be a 'go to' for you. I know I've said this about a number of fragrances....BUT, Epic Man belongs in everyman's collection for the days that you just want that boost of masculine confidence. Great to hear from you mate👊🏼
Thanks for this profund description of this wunderful fragrance. I love wearing it, its very fresh with a warm hint and lifts me up into a comfortable feeling. In the drydown it comes to a woodsy-peppery skinscent that stays for hours. Its a true masterpiece, sportive and sophisticatet. Best wishes to you and your sister!
It’s so awesome to hear of so many who are already total in love with Epic Man….I feel like I’m preaching to the converted!! But hey it needs to be said and yes, I have to agree with you, this is a masterpiece fragrance that has a complex evolution; love wearing Epic Man Thanks for reaching out Reimer, love your input my friend
Epic is my first full-bottle buy from the house after living with a few Amouage decants. It’s such an easy, dumb reach fougere for the cold months. Sunny, gloomy, day or night. Underrated gem
I (as a man) just purchased the women’s version after smelling it at Neiman Marcus. I had no idea it was a women’s fragrance until I looked at the receipt and it said Amouage Epic for Ladies on it. I’m tempted to possibly bring it back and exchange it for the men’s version or compare both.
In my opinion Epic Woman can be worn by a man. It does have rose and jasmine in the heart but it's not over the top or too feminine floral....there's enough going on with the spice and ambers that it does play well on a man. When Amouage created the Man and Woman in this range it was about pairing fragrances (creating a duet) so that couples can compliment their scents as they wore it together. Epic Man is a lot spicier, with more pine/balsamic notes.....personally if you tested and enjoyed Epic Woman, I would stay with this one....don't be put off by the name; go with the scent. Good luck Declan, great to hear from you👊🏽
Another great job. Epic.is the 💣. My first ever bottle, I dropped on the carpet breaking the atomiser. It was with great trepidation I decanted aiming not to still a drop of the previous elixir as it was an expensive purchase all those years ago ( and still is, Amouage hold their price unless you can find a bonus sale somewhere. Looking forward to your next video NFC and Co
Thank you Gregory, great to hear from you and I’m sure your heart would have skipped a beat as you saw that bottle hit the floor😱 Lucky it never broke! I can only image the intense aroma that would be emanated from your house for years to come⚡️
Great video and production as usual 😊 Big fan of both of the epics. The new epic 56 extrait is also worth checking out if you can. Great house to explore.
Hey Benji, great to hear from you buddy, hoping you’er well mate. I haven’t tried any of the new extrait versions, but I’m booked for a Masterclass to experience all the new ones with Renaud Salmon (Amouage Creative Director) hosting the event I CANNOT WAIT!!! Thanks again Benji
@@TheNicheFragranceCollector fantastic. Say hi to him - I annoy him by email all the time haha Also they are releasing some new attars shortly - would be worth reviewing next year
Wow, this is so awesome. This is a segment that you two should do way more often. Just maybe, please go back and do video's of Xerjoff and other fragrance house's. Great video
Could you please advise me about the longevity and sillage of Epic, some are exaggerating and other are disappointed, I would appreciate if any one examin Epic performance recently and share his / her experience with us
Apologies for the late reply...it's been super busy. But happy to say that just for you I'm going to test again tomorrow and then report in. I'm confident that whatever I said in this episode is how this fragrance wears on me; but as mentioned will test and report in tomorrow😎 Great to hear from you @Abdullah Ali
Ok, here we go💫 Tested today. Sprayed at 7.30am and I'm officially writing here at 9pm and I can still smell Epic on me....to the point that I caught up with my daughter an hour ago and she instantly said "love your perfume". Full projection, strong sillage till about 5pm with 2 compliments coming my way today😎 I love this fragrance and it was wonderful to revisit today....thank you for putting me up to the challenge @Abdullah Ali👊🏽 hope that helps
@The Niche Fragrance Collector thank you so much for this brilliant information, I have wondering how I can get the full opinion about the fragrance and u did it . I sincerely appreciate. Much love from Nigeria 🇳🇬
I have had these guys on my radar as I would love to share about 'Cologne' style fragrances, their history and evolution over time.....so short answer is 'yes', long answer is, 'need to slot this into the production plan'😎 Great to hear from you @Ey Yo! Thanks for your comments
Hey Mike, awesome that we're connecting from across the globe! I really would recommend to you Epic Man. For me this fragrance performs well in all seasons and holds up well when I'm on the move. If you want the ultimate in 'Beast Mode' then Interlude Man is a powerhouse. However this one can take a bit of getting use to. It's very unique but also polarising fragrance, but people can smell this fragrance even through face masks! I'm also a big fan of Memoir Man, which is a wonderful fougere (aromatic, woody) but on me this doesn't have huge projection, but I don't care because I can smell it and I totally love it. Good luck Mike! Once you settle on the fragrance, would love to know which one you went with....great to hear from you mate
@@TheNicheFragranceCollector Hey Marcelo! I went with • Epic man for the colder months, would love to get my hands on Memoir and interlude. Jubilation is on the list aswell. •Beach Hut Man for the Warmer months, hoping to get elysium, I have a fair amount of creed. Geen Irish Tweed is getting swapped out with Beach hut man during spring for sure. Lots in my collection and more to come. Appreciate the videos. Love the channel. Can't wait to see more! I'm 24 btw and i was fortunate to pull epic man off 😎 (big guy with a beard)
@@MrBananaFan Great to hear from you buddy and congrats on Epic Man (I think this is a 'fragrance for life'....if you can pull it off at 24 it will only get better from here buddy) Love Beach Hut and yes, Spring/Summer is a perfect fit. Not sure about Elysium for you being that you work outside?? I feel that this might get lost in the constant 'open air', whereas Beach Hut will hold it's own or even Hacivat by Nishane will also hold it's own in the open. And yes Memoir Man is awesome but also be aware that it's not a huge projector in the open air (if that's what you want). Thank you for your support Mike, appreciate the encouragement👊🏼
@@TheNicheFragranceCollector plz i want to buy a perfume for my hubby plz suggest sholud i buy the green amouge epic man plz help coz i have collected my pay to buy a best fregnance for jim
Hey there @salie sober, I would recommend to test first. Yes, Epic Man is a wonderful strong masculine scent but maybe there’s something in the fragrance that doesn’t resonate with him?? Out of interest what other perfumes does he have that he likes and that you like on him….maybe I can make some suggestion of perfumes you guys can test out Great to hear from you👊🏽
Nice! I’ve been wearing Epic quite a bit this autumn, along with Portrayal. Both perfectly placed between Amouage’s more potent wallpaper peelers and their more subtle offerings. Love it 😊👍
Laughed out loud😂what’s their paint peeler?? Please don’t say Overture Man🙏🏽 I actually love their potent stuff. Do you have Interlude Black Iris? And yes, Epic Man is potent & powerful but easy wear….great to hear from you Mark
@@TheNicheFragranceCollector Haha - thanks Marcelo. I would say vintage Interlude AND Overture (which I love)! Believe it or not, I am actually wearing Black Iris this very moment 😊 With Black Iris, I find the bracing opening quickly (5 mins in) gives way to the Amouage DNA found in some other offerings, so it might not be unique enough to be a keeper. Have yet to decide on it though, as this is my first cold weather season wearing it. I think Interlude 53 will be a peeler for sure! 😉
I’m yet to experience Interlude 53 but yes, have a feeling this one will stay on skin for the week…..I get a comfortable 24 hrs with normal Interlude💥 (so I can only image)….funny Black Iris didn’t resonate with me as much. I found the same as you. It wasn’t different enough from Interlude, that happy to stay with the original…..but as mentioned keen to try 53🤩
Not sure what I received but this stuff is weak in the winter hardly a skin scent can’t relate to what you are describing No oud or notes you describe maybe I will try in the summer months
Hmmmm, not sure why this might be happening for you? Is it a decant? You should see if you can find it in a retail store and spray side by side (one on each arm)....see how they stack up against each other. Good luck David👊🏽
I'm curious to know what tipped the scale?🤔 Apart from the fact that this is one of the best masculine fragrance's out there😎 Great to hear from you @Grumpy1098
Jubilation XXV is a masterpiece….big love for this fragrance, my problem is that this is too much for my wife😭 I normally wear this when I’m traveling for business…last all day♥️. Great to hear from you friend
Epic Man has caraway and castoreum. Those are red flag notes for me. Like the warning from a rattlesnake's rattle. Caraway is known for a cumin-like "body odor" accord, and castoreum of course for animalic funk. I'm sensitive to both accords. I'm a FragWimp. "Challenging" to me tends to equate to "bad". But occassionally these notes are done with care and can be at least palatable. I've never smelled Epic Man so I don't know about this one.
Hmmm, I see a red stop sign for you on this one🛑 In your opinion, what’s the ‘punchiest’ fragrance in your collection. Would love to see what the ‘water mark level’ is🤔
Nahhh the smells is so gooood. Smells of wealth . Dont let the notes haunt you. Get a sample. Its a bottle worthy. I ordered another bottle of Epic Man although i had a bottle of 90ml liquid still . smells of rich people although im not rich haha
