The Scoop We couldn't be more thrilled with the recent upsurge in modern fougere releases, and the reason is obvious: fougeres just smell great. Clean, soapy, aromatic, and straight-forwardly masculine, they're confident but never abrasive, and we say itβs about time they came back into fashion. Of course, Amouage is never a house to just copy what everyone else is doing, so we went into Bracken Man expecting greatness. We're delighted to say that our expectations were surpassed- Bracken Man might be destined to become a new masculine classic.Β With Bracken Man, Amouage makes a break with its oriental traditions and offers men something more in line with a Victorian herb garden than an Arabian souk or palace. Opening on a spicy, grassy note, Bracken immediately plunges us into a sunny, walled herb garden where clutches of lavender are spilling out onto the path. Fresh, upturned soil, trampled grass and spicy aromatics all combine for a wonderfully compelling scent both timeless and unique. We haven't stopped raving about it since getting our hands on it, but now it's time to share it with you. Fougere lovers, we know you have a lot to choose from these days, but set all that aside- your new signature scent has arrived.Β
