Hi there from Israel. Let me start by saying that i've been a subscriber for a couple of months or so, and have watched many of your videos. Fery quickly, you have become my favorite reviewer (next to the legendary Robes08). Other than you and him, NOONE but NOONE on youtube gives such an exact description of a scent. And what's more important, you don't hold back any punches. you are not afraid of blasting fragrances, and fragrance houses (such as free bottle brigades specialists like roja parfums), and you speak the truth every time. Keep up the great work, it's second to none!!!
about epic men - i agree with you completely. it disappeares after 2-3 hours (not even a skin scent) so i gave my bottle away, it was a total waste of money
@@philip1123 Hey! Thanks so much for the comment ❤️
I started this channel because I was initially the one looking for honest, down to earth opinions and could find very little on CZcams. I’m so happy this comes across. I have zero motive behind this other than talking about something I like in an honest way 🙂
I have a magnetic cap version but older brand styling. I must be in the minority, Epic Man lasts all day on me, gently humming, never intrusive. I find it very comfortable and I appreciate it does not scream like so many other Amouage. Might appeal more to older gents without being an old man scent.
I don’t think it’s an old man scent at all but it’s definitely very classy and elegant. I have a very high tolerance for “funkiness” so most Amouage don’t bother me at all but I can understand how many might be uncomfortable wearing Interlude to work and prefer something like this 👍
i have the older style too (2019 bottle?) and i really like it/it lasts all day...but the way people talk about the original non magnetic formula, i feel like even ours are missing something. i really like it, but amouage has been nosediving for a while. and now theyre talking about amouage selling to l'oreal so lol
@@SeanHH1986 I understand the disappointment but I try not to be dramatic about companies and fragrance formulationsp, It is what it is 🙂
I like a lot of the newer releases things always change.
Nice review! I am also an Amouage fan (but from Chong's Era) . I have purchased more than 10 bottles but never epic. I find it that it does not stand out as the other ones. My top favorites are Imitation, Lyric and Jubilation XXV Man. Those are trully one of the kind.
On this we disagree! I find it to be epic in every way. I have a new bottle with Epic on the front and a magnetic cap (not sure what year) and I find it to be beastly. It easily lasts 6-8 hours on me (which is unusual, my skin generally eats fragrance). And I find the transitions to be slow and interesting. The dry spicy opening actually lasts a little longer than I'd like. The mid with the beautiful geranium is my favorite part but even the deep dry down is good. I put Epic up there with both Royal Tobacco and Silver Oud in terms of quality of scent and longevity/performance. And yes, on clothes it literally lasts days.
It's always interesting to hear other's experiences, so thanks for sharing yours. I'm sorry you don't love it! Maybe you got a bad batch. It happens.
Update: located my batch code. It's from 10/27/21. Truly a shame if they watered it down after that.
@@DaveNYC that’s the beauty of perfumery! I love that my opinion and taste is not the same to everyone 🙂
A consistent description I think. Most people have similar impressions and they tend to mirror my own. I prefer the women's version if I'm honest. But I do like the green colour of the bottle!
Never tried the women’s version. I hear it’s quite unisex. Maybe I’ll get a sample of the extrait or something.
As a guy I got the woman’s epic 56 extrait. Dark and woody and masculine. Also a beast. Never smelt epic man. Smelt overture man and woman. Prefer the woman’s version. Great content!
Yeah, I really have to get my nose on Epic 56, I’ve heard great things!
Richard, I have Overture Woman and I think it's amazing as well!
I' ll pass, having heard about longevity problems with this one! I own 8 Amouages, my favourite are Reflection man, Journey man, Dia man.
How’s Dia? I’ve heard it’s not super exciting so I kind of ignored it 😅
@@SeldomlyOften Elegant, sexy and gentlemanly. Perfect for office. Good longevity.
@@cantgetright2545 ok, getting a sample on my next Amouage order 😁
@@cantgetright2545no it doesn’t
And it’s too feminine.
Before I watch this one, I'd like to say Epic smells very different on my skin vs my wife's. On mine it's a lot more masculine, a typical Amouage spicy smoky resinous DNA with a focus on animalic leather and woody nuances, while on my wife's skin it comes off woody more than anything, with sort of a green freshness, and not much of the funky animalic accord.
After watching your review, Daniel, I would have to agree with you in regard to the (lack of) complexity of Epic, when compared to other Amouage creations.
I'd only sample Boundless and Lyric, instead of blind buy directly. Although taste may and will differ, I find them both underwhelming, with respect to the scent profile, next to many others.
I'm looking forward to hearing in future videos your take on the rest of the Amouage perfumes you are accustomed to.
Not that anyone asked, my favorite are, in random order: royal tobacco, Overture, Interlude, Jubilation XXV, beach hut man, King Blue, Reflection. I'm currently testing more of them, but it's safe to say I'm a big fan, even when it comes to Mr. Salmon's releases. Guidance and Purpose instantly came to mind.
Thanks for the comment! Yes, it’s one of the more “pedestrian” Amouage fragrances and, as I said, it’s not a bad thing at all. This could be a great signature for anyone looking for a classic masculine profile ❤️
An amouage that isn’t a love letter? 🤣 Now I’ll have to check it out. Thanks Daniel
Thanks for the continued support! Do you have experience with this one?
I certainly don’t own it, but I have tried a lot of amouage fragrances so I may well have tried at some point but it obviously didn’t make much of an impression!
Thanku so much for reviewing ultra nech house fragrance
🤗
A great scent but the bottle I had ( a 2023) lasted less than an hour on me. Worst performing Amouage on me.
Yeah, this really is a deal breaker on this one for me 🫤
Hey just curious which year is your epic man
@@ivanlozano4220 not sure, probably pretty recent, 2023 I assume.
Epic Man smells wealth
True, it’s a very elegant, luxurious smells for the everyday gentlemen 👍
@@SeldomlyOften which amouage you love the mosy. Top5 maybe?
@@matkassimmohamad4283 in no specific order probably: Royal Tobacco, Overture, Interlude, Myths, Beach Hut
@@SeldomlyOften do you think if i have black iris. Then i get Interlude, is it redundant?
@@matkassimmohamad4283 I’ve been wearing my Black Iris sample a lot lately and, to my nose, they smell similar enough that I would not own both. The difference is mostly in the opening and the oregano note of the original is what they engineered out of BI. If you are into utility I would try interlude and decide which you like more, if you are collecting it’s another story. Given that you own BI, I would probably explore something different before going similar.
My Epic Man is excellent! 2021 Batch code A34631F174. 6 Hours plus Real good projection. Wife can smell it from across the room. Sillage two metres plus no bother. I also get good comments & a few curious one's 😵😷🤕 Lol. I've just bought another Bottle. 2019 I think? She arrives tomorrow. & Let's not overlook folk getting noseblind 😂💪🤪💪🤪😷🤣🔥🔥🔥
I’m happy you have a great hitting batch! Mine unfortunately is underwhelming and I don’t think it’s a case of noseblindness. I’ll lookout for an older bottle 🙂
