Lyric Man

Amouage's Lyric Man is a finely crafted, unisex fragrance that stands out for its elegance and high quality. It opens with a bright, transparent citrus burst—bergamot and lime—paired with a light, fresh rose, creating a clean, refreshing mood. This evolves into a harmonious blend where the rose remains dominant but is skillfully balanced with warm, resinous notes like galbanum, pine, saffron, and sandalwood. The dry down reveals a soft, musky, slightly powdery base with vanilla, adding depth without heaviness. The overall effect is refined and sophisticated—sensual but never overt or overpowering. Performance is exceptional, with long-lasting sillage and strong projection that lingers for over 10 hours. It is most at home in cool weather and suited for evenings or special occasions, where its poetic, romantic character shines. While some find it too feminine or soap-like, many praise its authenticity and versatility. It’s a fragrance for those who appreciate restrained beauty and are comfortable with a modern masculine aesthetic that embraces floral sophistication.
