Amouage is my favorite house if you want to smell unique, scream luxury and show others what oriental fragrance means. Many of their offerings are “not standard” for western “nose palate” and this is exactly why I love them because you will smell different than others 100%, cause every time you wear Amouage frag you are giving your surroundings a statement you are daring, powerful and makes you feel really like a royal. Journey man I was somehow overlooking in past 2 years but then I received an official sample. It was a great time to try actually – December cold evening, right after shower. I knew I’m about to test Amouage so I was careful with an initial spray! And it was a love at first sniff. Your nose will got immediately “punch” of spice called Sichuan pepper. Very strong and intense smell will cover you like a spicy bubble for about 15 minutes then Juniper berries and incense will start introducing them selfs. Fragrance screams for 2-3 hours very intensively so 2 sprays is really more than enough. As the fragrance settle main player continues to be pepper coupled with cardamon and cypriol. Overall Journey Man is ULTRA SUPER masculine fragrance, well dressed, mature intelligent guy going out with a girl to expensive restaurant in autumn/winter. Journey Man has similar intense/longllasting projection as Interlude Man and this is for sure a “Red beast”. Longevity is for me 10+ hours and sillage is massive. For me 10/10, sits in TOP3 most favorite Amouages and happy to be a proud owner of this amazingly looking bottle with top quality oriental juice! Excelent creation worth the money!
