Thanks for throwing in feminine-leaning fragrance! I find that the fragrance community is largely male-dominated so its hard to get good reviews on feminine fragrances. Portrayal woman sounds like something I'd love to try.
I've been wearing the Man version for a couple of weeks from a decant and it is certainly different from the other offerings from this house. The cade/juniper gives it an interesting character. Great office fragrance.
My favorite fragrance house!!! Their sample sets on the website (under gifts) are very generous with a 12ml vial and come in a beautiful box! I should have watched a few TH-cam videos because I only bought the por femme and library opus sample sets. Seems a pretty universal opinion that anyone can wear either sex’s scent, when I return with more purchases, going to get the por home set too!
Amouage is one of my favorite middle eastern house . Imitation man was last purchase & I will sample these 2 when I get a chance . Nice review habibi !
Awesome review! I am very excited for these amouage is my favorite house! Is that your collection sebastian? That's epic! I would love to see an overview of your collection some day!
what would you recommend if I were to buy my first amouage? I’m a mommy of two, 33 years old and I have been collecting niche perfumes. I love and I have diptyque eau duelle edp, volutes edp; JHAG vanilla vibes; initio atomic rose; memo paris lalibela, granada, jannat; shay&blue atropa belladona, tallulahs camellia, amber rose, olfactory nyc “blake” customized with oud, rose, raspberry & pear and lastly byredo velvet haze.
Thank you for the review Sabastian! I've been waiting for you to give your thoughts on these new releases. My girlfriend loves jasmine. I want them both but will wait patiently for them to hit discounters.
Great reviews. Definitely will need to find out more on Portrayal Man. Reflection Man is one of my overall favorites, loved it from the first. I’ve found with some other Amouage frags, I appreciate them more, months after purchasing them. Pretty happy with the Amouage I have, no regrets there. :)
Interesting you don’t seem to think the violet dominates in the man version and other reviews comment on that a lot. Violet and Cade sounds very interesting to me, looking forward to smelling this one. I am thinking to myself it might smell a bit like Byredo Baudelaire just going off the notes and I really like that one.
*Great review, Sebastian!* Always interested in woody aromatics & already have 7 releases from this top quality house. Will get definetly a sample of Portrayal Man. Testing at the moment my sample of Imitation Man during warm spring days. Great floral white leather perfume; the more I'll wear, the further my nose like the floral aroma. *Have a great time next week in Esxence, excited about your footage!* ☕🙂👍
Another great review!!! Thanks for sharing your thoughts!!! I love the House of Amouage!!! Reflection and Beloved are my favorites so far!!! The bottle on the Amouage Portrayal is so beautiful!!! I really love it!!! I will definitely order a sample of both as I also love the jasmine note!!! ☮️🖖🏽
Dear Sebastian, Great review particularly intrigued by Portrayal man especially cumin/carraway seed note slash vetiver note. I am a fan of Amouage especially interlude man. Cheers
Seems like so many brands are following the simplistic trend nowadays - releasing a group or collection of fragrances dedicated to 3-5 notes a piece. Undoubtedly saving on ingredients, but are they looking to target the collector demographic, or just offer the average consumer a bind? I certainly hope it doesn't jeopardize the future availability of prive or exclusif lines...
Hi sebastian. Do you have a video ranking mens amouage fragrances? If not do you mind me asking what is your favourite/the best (other than lyric which i own already)?
As much as i like Amouage , latest fragrances they released for guys i do not like , and some i even find above average. Bracken Man , Beach Hut Man , Imitation Man , Sunshine Man , Figment Man all i'm not a fan of , and to me all ot those are *NOWHERE* near as good as classics like Jubilation XXV , Interlude Man , Lyric Man i all own ... Through i really like some of women's offerings - bought Lilac Love - i see it on your shelves , and Blossom Love. I will check Portrayal man , but to be honest my expectations are not very high. SOTD is Carpe Cafe by Gallagher Fragrances
Well amouage is my favorite house I have 6 so far I think this is the only house where I could blind buy and like every one have smelled only 2 I dont like so far I will be adding this to my amouage collection I'm sure
I dig that frag Sabastian.Kinda reminds me of skittles.Very fruity and fresh.Right on man..can't wait to try these new Amouages,great vid.This is one of the best frag pages out there,keep up the great work.That collection thoo lol,that's something fam,mad respect.Cool man enjoy your trip.I'll be in Europe as well from May 1st---May 20th.I'm doing London,Paris,Amsterdam,Munich,and Monaco.I'll probably run into you at the Jovoy Paris boutique in Paris bro hahaha.Peace & Blessings
I have a decant of Portrayal woman. It smells nothing like its Fragrantica notes. It is not woody at all. You can't smell the jasmine at all. No smokiness. It is very well blended so particular notes don't come out, but you can tell there's a lot of generic floral+ tobacco leaf with elemi. It is a perfume for a 50 year old woman.
I like beautiful fragrances but I don"t ear them as signature scents. that is the only way i would spend over 200.00 for a fragrance. I get bored of them after a few months. Too bad I really liked your reviews but I will never buy the fragrances you review because they are beyond my price range. Too bad.
I wish perfume creators would stop making fragrances "for a women" or "for a man". It should be a great fragrance that is unisex in nature because some women do prefer the smell of bass scents and accords and aren't as into the whole idea that florals are just for women, and I am sure it goes both ways... That said - I love the packaging and design for these fragrances and I have no doubt there is a lot of talent there.
I need categories that describe where on the feminine or masculine spectrum the fragrance sits, or it will be impossible for me to blind-buy them to match my mood or outfit. To those whom such information is redundant should simply ignore it. Today for example I'm going to pick from my collection 20 ultra feminine fragrances, all of them different and awesome, but the category "feminine" will be the common denominator. Tomorrow I may choose ultra masculine, as per my specific craving. It's like a music playlist. Removing categories will not reduce our need of them, but it will create difficulty fulfilling it. We can group songs and smells and colors and flavors them as we please. Let's celebrate the freedom we still have in doing this with fragrances! I'll miss it should some fad cripples us our diverse freedoms to enjoy distinguishing smells and colors in variety of relevant categories into a brown sea of "anything goes" category ... I wish perfume creators refuse to follow marketing trends and stay loyal to the art principles.

You should try watching Eva Monroe she’s great!
There are a bunch of women's channels. Take that stuff elsewhere

Who is stopping you from being a part of it??????????? Unbelievable. Always complaining!!!!
What are you talking about? Lots of woman reviewers.
Reviewing Woman and Man in both vid? 🔥Love the side-by-side comparison! Thanks so much for the review.
Love the background, the white shelves with all the bottles looks great.
It's like a wine cellar for fragrances.
I've been wearing the Man version for a couple of weeks from a decant and it is certainly different from the other offerings from this house. The cade/juniper gives it an interesting character. Great office fragrance.
Amouage perfumes are stunners and I am sure these are too. Awesome review!

Thanks for the heads up on these Sebastian, I've yet to get my nose on them.

Maybe Lilac Love? It's so delicious. Chocolate covered or cacao dusted Lilacs!! :)
@@ThePerfumeGuy wow thank you! I love delicious perfumes!
Thanks for the review, really looking forward to grabbing this one.
Thank you for sharing your recommendations with us. I plan to check these fragrances out soon. Happy Spring!

You are the best

Really enjoyed the comparison between the two, Gonna check out both of them!
Eager to try them when they get distributed more widely. Huge fan of Amouage
Really curious about this 😮🤔

Undoubtedly saving on ingredients, but are they looking to target the collector demographic, or just offer the average consumer a bind? I certainly hope it doesn't jeopardize the future availability of prive or exclusif lines...
The women’s version sounds so good to me!
It is. It's amazing.
Hi sebastian. Do you have a video ranking mens amouage fragrances? If not do you mind me asking what is your favourite/the best (other than lyric which i own already)?
LYRIC>REFLECTION>JOURNEY>MEMOIR>PORTRAYAL>INTERLUDE>SILVER
But this could change any moment! :)
Great review, have been curious about Portrayal Man. What a fantastic collection Sebastian. Lots of really good stuff there!
Would you mind making a top video about wormwood note? Or artemisia at least. Thanks!
I love that note and we will most likely do something soon not right away!!! Thank you for inquiring about it! :)
Interesting fragrances. Only smelled 3 from Amouage so far. Thanks for sharing. Enjoyed ✌🏻
Love Amouage, thank you for posting. No reviews about these two yet.
Wow this is the most gorgeous amouage bottle.

I will check Portrayal man , but to be honest my expectations are not very high.
SOTD is Carpe Cafe by Gallagher Fragrances
amouage are over
Both are my favorite Amouages, favorite violet and favorite jasmine fragrances, I think Portrayal Woman leans unisex, so I wear both.
Portrayal Woman is quite awesome with the Gardenia and Tobacco. Yes and it's quite unisex!! :)
I have been waiting for this review since the launch 😁
Pierre Negrin , whats ur fav top 3 frag from her ? any one is sensual alluring date occasion for men ?
Tks Sebastian
Good review!
Portrayal Man Sample just arrived. Amouage Fanboy (me) likes it! Woody and elegantly strong.
The white bottle en the left shelf third row is Lalique White?
Yes it is! You're good! ;)
Hey Sebastian! Thank you for sharing your thoughts about these with us. :)
Of course, thank you for stopping by! :)
Great review Brotha
I get a hint of Dior Fahrenheit. Maybe the violet leaf. Am I going crazy?
i can't wait to try these.
Great collection!!!
The notes are divine but it's very pricey. One I can't afford at the moment but it's a beautiful scent.
Well amouage is my favorite house I have 6 so far I think this is the only house where I could blind buy and like every one have smelled only 2 I dont like so far I will be adding this to my amouage collection I'm sure
Sounds interesting. Cade can be classy
Is that the new by kilian love eau fraiche on your shelf?? 🤔
Yes!! ;)
@@ThePerfumeGuy review ASAP please!!!!!!! 😂
I hope to but it might have to wait til I get back from Italy/France. But maybe I can review on the road! It's really delicious! :)
@@ThePerfumeGuy That would be a great review on the road (if you can). Thank you and have fun!

Design award for amazing looking bottle
Where can I try these?
To me it (Portrayal man) reminds me of a lighter version of TF Tuscan Leather. Same vibe too.
Before 2019 ends, I must have a fragrance from this house. Greetings from Puerto Rico, Sebastian.
Awesome keep me posted! :)
@@ThePerfumeGuy
Will do.
Which would you recommend from Amouage, for the warm tropical weather of Puerto Rico?
OOh. I love Lyric Man it's a very fresh rose with lime. It might be a bit intense but control your sprays. th-cam.com/video/hu2OUHCfpzQ/w-d-xo.html
I have a decant of Portrayal woman. It smells nothing like its Fragrantica notes. It is not woody at all. You can't smell the jasmine at all. No smokiness. It is very well blended so particular notes don't come out, but you can tell there's a lot of generic floral+ tobacco leaf with elemi. It is a perfume for a 50 year old woman.
I think like fahrenheit?
Here watch this video: th-cam.com/video/Sn48ClFHb7c/w-d-xo.html
Reminds me of Amouage Gold a bit.
Different not same at all
what percentage of your collection would you say is being visible behind you?
55-60%! :)
@@ThePerfumeGuy Impressive, thanks!
Thankyou
There are a ton of jasmine frag on the market, even in this house. Fate is a cumin perfume also. So...my question is: why?
I like beautiful fragrances but I don"t ear them as signature scents. that is the only way i would spend over 200.00 for a fragrance.
I get bored of them after a few months. Too bad I really liked your reviews but I will never buy the fragrances you review because they are beyond my price range. Too bad.
First...
Love this review 👍 His and Her . I definitely want to try this. Thank you for this Video ♥️ @maryjeannyc
Where do you live??

again very interesting. You must be in a very stable financial situation to afford all those bottles. Good for you :)
