AmouagePortrayal Man (DISCONTINUED)

Description Portrayal Man channels the audacious spirit of 1920s bohemian London , where dandies and disaffected artists defied convention in pursuit of unfiltered self-expression. Composed by Pierre Negrin and launched in 2019 under creative director Christopher Chong, it's a portrait of authenticity unbound — arrogant, glamorous, and quietly rebellious. Violet leaves lend a dandyish opening before vetiver settles into a smoky, leather-toned heart, while cade oil grounds the composition in a raw, woody afterglow. Amouage has since discontinued the fragrance. Scent Character An aromatic-woody composition: a green, powdery violet-leaf opening over an earthy vetiver heart, closing on smoky, leathery cade oil, cypriol, and patchouli. Translation: a smoky, leather-toned woody aromatic — unconventional and slightly raw rather than polished. Fragrance Pyramid Top: Violet Leaves Heart: Vetiver Base: Cade Oil, Cypriol, Patchouli Performance Longevity: Strong — typically 8–10 hours. Sillage: Moderate-to-strong; the smoky cade base carries well. Projection: 2–3 feet initially, settling to arm's-length. Best Occasions & Season Season: Spring, Summer, and Fall. Occasions: Casual, Leisure, and Evening wear — for anyone drawn to unconventional, smoky woods. Wear: Men's.
