I got a sample from lucky scent. I meant to get the woman’s and accidentally ordered the gentleman’s. But I really loved it. You’re my favorite reviewer. The notes sounds so nice. I would love to get a chance to win a bottle for my boyfriend. He deserves the best. He’s an amazing father, partner, and hard working to make everyone happy. ❤️USA Brooke Anderson ❤️🙌🏻
Excellent review!!! I like Amouage Portrayal for Man!!! It is not as aggressive or overpowering as some of the other fragrances from this house, which makes it more wearable!!! My favorite fragrances from Amouage is Reflection, Beloved, Dia, and Honour!!! I understand that Christopher Chong has stepped down as Creative Director of Amouage!!! I certainly hope that the new direction in which Amouage ventures will be as fruitful and successful as the one that preceded it!!! So far, Amouage is my favorite niche house!!! ☮️🖖🏽
Great review! I just ordered a decant. Can't wait to try it. I recently got Imitation Man. Reminded me of my grandparents house in Long Island, NY in the 80's. Seemed like women's perfume fro that time. I like it for nostalgic reasons but I returned my full bottle as I blind bought it. I may get a decant again to revisit it down the road. Currently own a bottle of Reflection Man (love it) and decants of Journey, Memoir and Jubilation. Need to give those some more wear, but I already can tell I like Journey and Memoir. I'll be back to tell you my thoughts on Portrayal.
Jubilation is my longest lasting perfume not just from Amouge but from everything I own and ever tried. Now Portrayal and Imitation are in my radar and you helped me to make my decision! Thank you
Great review. I found it to be quite decent. So agree with the watery herbal quality of it. But it couldnt move me enough. Cheers. Thanks for a great review.
What a GORGEOUS bottle, but ive come to expect nothing less from the house. I have a few favorites from Amouage, but I have to say that I adore Bracken Woman. That juicy berry note is quite lovely. Thanks for giving us your thoughts on this one!
Hi Sebastian. I just received a complimentary 2ml vial of Potrayal man. It was love at first sniff. I feel this is very gender neutral. My husband says I smell great with this perfume. Hope to own a full bottle in future.
Amouage has some of the coolest bottles. Thanks Sebastian as always. Great review. I am starting to get into violet fragrances and would love to try this rendition by Amouage.
I think I’m a great great fan of Christopher Chong. The truth is that I didn’t even know that Mr.Chong is the person behind my collection of Amouage fragrances I have tons of fragrances in my wardrobe but Amouage is undoubtedly the best of best! From Chong’s creativity I LOVE these that I own: Jubilation - 2008 Lyric - 2008 Epic - 2009 Interlude - 2012 Reflection- 2007 I started my journey with Amouage by a blind buy of Interlude followed by Lyric which incidentally got attracted watching Sebastian’s review and moved on getting Epic. If you carefully look at these three they are my Red Green Blue (RGB) of fragrances(in color spectrum they are everything) While I have so many great things to talk about Chong’s creations the only thing my nose didn’t accept is: Figment - 2017 - Unfortunately, I have returned figment The list of my acquaintances didn’t go without stating Amouage Gold and Dia in my wardrobe too have a special place in my scent journey. After watching this Portrayal review, once again I’m drooling to get my hands on it! Having a fan of the house of Amouage, I’m looking forward to checking Portrayal - 2019 and also possibly Overture - 2019 as well
Coming to this video late. Just saw Portrayal reviewed by another favorite reviewer (I've got four) and it fascinated me. I've got samples of Jubliation XVV and Beach Hut Man. Both enchanting, even captivating in their own ways, yet both a bit too...perfumey to be "me." I heard the other fellow review Portrayal and convincingly convey, if perhaps not meaning to, that this was a peculiarly non-Amouage-ish Amouage. And I thought, "Hmm...." Plus...the whole vetiver thing (I"m mad about vetiver). Again, "Hmm...." Then I read some reviews on Fragrantica and, whaddya know, the consensus is that Portrayal goes to a place you don't expect of Amouage DNA. I'm very intrigued.
I have a couple Amouage decanted like reflection man and bracken man, I love both of them. The way you described this makes me very interested to try it. Good luck to everyone who is entering.
Sounds like it could be a Narciso Rodriguez for Him, but with an Amouage spin. This house doesn't disappoint. I have Jubilation, Reflection, and Lyric and I wouldn't mind if Portrayal is the next one in my Amouage collection.
I’m excited to try this one. I own Dia man, Reflection man, and Jubilation 25 so far. I like the blue beast, but have no idea when or where i would wear it.
Haven’t smelled this but sounds good. I sampled Reflection Man and Lyric. Both were nice. Don’t think I’ve smelled many fragrances with violet leaves. It’ll be nice to check out. Enjoyed the vid, thanks ✌🏻
Great review as usual! Definally interested in Portrayal Man. I don't have any Amouage now so it will go on the list to try with Jubilation XXV, Reflection Man, and maybe Lyric Man. Thanks
I have never tried Portrayal Man, and I do not have a favorite masculine violet leaves scent. I would love to win this, though. I am a fan of Amouage! I've tried Interlude Man and I plan to buy that soon. I love it. This is going to sound offensive to potentially a lot of people but Interlude Man makes me think of a burning church. Anyway, this sounds super interesting and hopefully I can try it out sometime if I don't win it.
I’m broken-hearted Seb tbh after hearing about the departure of Christopher Chong as Creative Director, buuuuuut, life does indeed go on.... I absolutely LOVE everything Amouage, but my Top 3 undoubtedly are: Reflection, Jubilation XXV & Lyric Man. Violet Leaf is a note I absolutely adore in a fragrance and I hope I’m blessed to have this “fat, succulent experience as you you put it with the Violet leaves- backed-up by a touch of Vetiver, Cade and that metallic, woody-green, watery experience”! Ok ok Seb, you’ve got me, “I’m IN”🥰🤩😂 I’m trying to think of a violet dominant fragrance that I Love now and Tom Ford Black Violet comes to mind.... Good Luck to all the participants!👏🏼🙏👋👋
Great review spotlight Sebastian, violet leaves, sounds great, could that be instead of Lavender,? Amouage, has great releases like lyric man, and jub 25.
Very happy that Amouage has brought forward the Qatari/Middle eastern art of purfumery to the world stage. Do you believe Amouage still maintains its authenticity or has the house changed over years.
Hi Sibastian! Great review that I have been waiting for. I am big fan of violet leafe notes and the vetiver as well. How do you rate the performance of this compare to beach hut is it close kind of in performance? I definetly need to get my nose on it!
Wear Amouage for personal pleasure, very few of them are work friendly. Eccentric and exotic are words that come to mind. You will smell like The Gods though.
Wearing it today from a decant sample I have. It's 90 degrees and it's a banging, typical Amouage strength frangrance. It's really a good one. Bottle worthy for me. Hey Sebastian how does one check for winners on the Cafleurebon giveaways?
Cafleurebon usually posts winners on their website: www.cafleurebon.com/amouage-portrayal-man-winner/ and of course best way to find out about winners for me and Cafleurebon are to follow our FB pages. That way you get notified. My FB is here: facebook.com/lookfeelsmellgreat this is Cafleurebon: facebook.com/CaFleureBon.blog
@@ThePerfumeGuy Although, to be honest, I do get some animalic skankiness as there was musk or civet. Its like a cross between Fahrenheit with some Kouros. It is like a nod to 80s powerhouse fragrances. Like a medley of those in a way. I have never tried a Cade fragrance to tell if that is the animalic note or not.
Can anyone here that has smelled this tell me how close this is to Narcisso Rodriguez edt? I saw the comparison on Fragrantica and that’s what got me interested
Hi its been a while but man i stopped looking at reviews for bit due to my life being a little hectic now but as i come back to all these new scents from my favorite houses , i am going to be very busy the next couple weeks going to the malls and stores to update my nose.
👀 Watch Reflection Man Review here: czcams.com/video/jTEyYO810-c/video.html 👀

Would love to get my nose on this
I literally can't take my eyes off that bottle.... 👀

Amouage is one of the reasons I started this passionate climb. Sounds like it's magical as are many of their offerings. Count me in 💥✨

Thank you for the review Sebastian. You described what sounds like a great Masculine fragrance.
Love this house! Reflection man still has my heart strings
Huge fan of Amouage, I own quite a few from them but have yet to try this.
It sounds like something I'll enjoy alot. I can't wait to try it. 👌
I own more than 30 variants of amouage. A fan of course .. and my fave is Opus X. Will u pls review Opus X. 😊
I love this house they are synonymous with quality fragrances

This might be my first Amouage 😊
Great vid and sounds really great

No, I will love to try it. I don’t own any amouge but will love too own o1 bottle.
Very happy that Amouage has brought forward the Qatari/Middle eastern art of purfumery to the world stage. Do you believe Amouage still maintains its authenticity or has the house changed over years.
It is Omani not Qatari
soo love........ this fragrance. It is one of my top 5 from amouage. Solid.
Not sure anywhere around here has Amouage to try, so I'm really hoping to win, I'd love to try it
As always great content. I love the idea of an ever changing fragrance, something to keep me on my toes.
Interesting I though cade was restricted in perfume use. I must check this one out! Great review
I want to smell the way the bottle looks!
Sounds like an awesome release. Great review. Nice looking bottle. 👍🏼
Would you say Portrayal man is fresh and clean, not challenging easy to wear?
Will most definitely give this one a try
Great content keep it up, I love Amouage my top five fragrance house

@@ThePerfumeGuy Done and done. TY
:)
This fragrance sounds really good to me, very interesting with only three note, thanks for this review. Alpha Mike Foxtrot, out.
NIche Slighty easier to digest Fahrenheit, Aka dumb reach niche/Fahrenheit version with no leather or gasoline
Woah! I would love this one. Fahrenheit with some Bel Ami and some Cade.
That makes sense! Yes! :)
@@ThePerfumeGuy Although, to be honest, I do get some animalic skankiness as there was musk or civet. Its like a cross between Fahrenheit with some Kouros. It is like a nod to 80s powerhouse fragrances. Like a medley of those in a way. I have never tried a Cade fragrance to tell if that is the animalic note or not.
Can anyone here that has smelled this tell me how close this is to Narcisso Rodriguez edt? I saw the comparison on Fragrantica and that’s what got me interested
I tried the jubilation fragrance and it was very nice, but I havent tried this one yet..
It has become one of my Amouage favorites 👍
You have subscribers from Nigeria too. How come we don’t get to stand a chance to win a full bottle? 😔
Hi Sebastian, great house and i want that juice, greetings from San AngeloTexas
Still waiting for my amouage sampler set. I own a decant of refection. nice...
Hi its been a while but man i stopped looking at reviews for bit due to my life being a little hectic now but as i come back to all these new scents from my favorite houses , i am going to be very busy the next couple weeks going to the malls and stores to update my nose.
Hello brother, great content as always brother.
Sounds great!! Yes let's do this!! Greg B.
Absolutely gorgeous bottle!!
Amouage is my favorite house... The quality is beyond what others make.
@@Symphony85pis this a joke? 😂
Good review
Please... this is the ONLY Amouage I don't own!!! Pretty please!!!
It's a good one please check it out especially if you like fragrances like Fahrenheit and Narciso Rodriguez For Him! :)
Sounds amazimg
killer fragrance - yes, it HOLDS ITS OWN.
Amouage Epic extract de parfum is my all time favourite 💖
It's better version of narciso rodriguez for him almost the same
Fahrenheit
I can see some similarities because of the Violet Leaves! :)
This is right up my alley I fucks w this! Ty sir 🙏
If they keep making new fragrances I'll lose the shirt off my back. I just buy them all. 😖
smells exactly like diors fahrenheit.. nobody sees that?
I don't see the similarities except for the part of the violet leaves! :)
Nice bottle, isn't it
I love this bottle yes!!
Please pick me. Great video I need to try this
Great review. Hope to try it.
