Amouage Beloved Man Eau de Parfum, 100 ml

Product Information

At this price you can expect a fragrance on this level, you won't be disappointed, but you won't fall into jubilation either, but that was probably the intention behind it. It also becomes more sedate and less intrusive over the hours, so that one is enveloped by a hint of oriental sweetness, which has no large corners and edges and should therefore please most people. Beloved Man - by the way a great name for a perfume, who doesn't want to be loved? - starts very fruity-sweet and incredibly intense, you really have to be careful not to put on too much, the orange is freshly pressed into your nose. This can be a bit unpleasant when overdosed. After a short time the orange starts to retreat and clears the way for a very sweet scent, which is not cheap, but very noble and dignified. It's not for younger gentlemen, but for an older audience. All in all a very balanced perfume, the ingredients harmonize perfectly, the base of patchouli, vetiver, saffron likes.

Beloved Man opens with gentle peppery elemi supported by a soft orange citrus undertone. As the fragrance enters the early heart a waxy iris joins the mix along with dirty cumin giving the overall heart a quite earthy spicy feel on the whole. As it reaches the late dry-down, Beloved Man exudes a relatively smooth saffron-laced spicy cedar vibe as the cumin and iris finally exit, replaced by a relatively clean musk and patchouli tandem. Projection is very good and longevity is just short of outstanding at about 12 hours on skin.
