Overture Man by AmouageAmouageOverture Man4.2103 ratings

This is not a gym scent, and it’s not a work scent. But it’s exactly the scent I wanted to wear today. It’s 7am, and I won’t be home until 8pm - how fantastic! Spending 12+ hours with a fragrance is quite rare for me, so something as rich, complex and long-lasting as Overture Man is the perfect choice.

Edit: 8.30am - My client: "Gosh, I can smell you've arrived!"

The animalic side is really growling today - nothing fecal, barnyardy or oudish, but more like the musky, sun-baked hide of some desert-dwelling creature.

    My maaan, i immensely love this. For me becomes almost like a unique leather, I know isn’t, but has such a strong power on me. The boozy combo and the spices is a rarity that imo we will never have again done like this. Karine did a masterpiece.

      The leather is pretty dominant for me too - a sun-baked, sweaty hide, animalic sort of leather that somehow still feels quite clean and elegant. Just entered the 9th hour and it's still going strong.

      Breathtaking, I wish I could find all scents on this level, what is nuts is that I got this for nothing on eBay from a women that hated it 😂

      It's a stand out for sure, not just from Amouage, but perfumery in general. Crazy deal!

      Was waaaay too potent for the gym, but fortunately not many people are as crazy as me to arrive that early 🤣
