Amouage Honour Man (2011) Fragrance Review
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 12 мар 2024
- This is my full fragrance review of Amouage Honour Man, created in 2011 by Nathalie Feisthauer under the tutelage of Christopher Chong. Apparently the male version of honour is supposed to symbolize the son of Madame Butterfly.

Alrights, Ram! My first Amouage, and one of my faves. Gotten me compliments, too!
It's a good fragrance! I don't think it's bad, its just got shortfalls compared to others from the Chong Era IMHO
Thanks for watching & commenting 💪🐏
OMG what a cute little box!!! 😍📦
Love unboxing!
🫂💪🐏
Thanks for your thoughts, Ram! I remember not being too fond of this one... might have to revisit the sample 🤔
It is not a bad perfume... just one of the more uninspired creations during the Chong Era IMHO... still a good easy wear once or twice a year for me
Thanks for watching & commenting 💪🐏
Great review mate! I have been searching for a modern review of Honor Man. I have it and its a safe Amouage for more occasions. 😊👏👍
Thanks for that Mike! I agree ... I springtime safe Amouage 🤌🤌🤌
Could have commented on every vid of yours. I only started watching your channel since sunday (four days ago). Was fully fooled by frag tubers and had ordered a lot of samples from xerjoff because everyone was raving about that house, until i saw your review... Alread tried 40 knots and it's okey, alas i already bought fiero i may have not done that had i seen your review earlier. Anyway have ordered all kinds of amouage samples and Serge Lutens and before this day is out will order samples from papillon. To say that you help total beginners to discover real perfum is an understatement. Yesterday wore epic men and it's good stuff. Not so sweet as xerjoff and a lot of complexity. We will see how deep the rabbit hole goes! Thanks for sharing all the knowledge!
The rabbit hole goes all the way to the other side my friend. Enjoy the tumble. 🐰 🌎 🐏
Beautiful comment... thanks for taking the time to share your experience and welcome to the channel! 💪🐏
@@ndhaon91 not only the Rabbit Hole also the hole in my bank account. I really have to pace myself hahaha. Luckily samples are not too expensive
@@MrBouncingDeath truth!
@@RamseytheRam more than deserved. Watching the interviews is super insightful and helps me to zoom in to what really matters. A quality product that the house or perfumer loves to share with the world. Like Papillon, Liz Moore really is passionate and it's a blessing she had the resilience to bring it to us. Anyway I will watch and learn more from you! Thanks again.
The opening of Honour Man is pure black pepper to me. Like you say it's the reference black pepper. Never have I encountered such photo-realistic black pepper note in a perfume. Comme des Garcons Black Pepper smells really addictive to me, but, ironically, smells nothing like the real black pepper.
Interesting! Thanks for watching & sharing your thoughts 🙂
Ramlings and Ramlets of niche disposition, we meet again. 🐏 ♂️ ♀️ 💰
Coincidentally, just got my bottle of this in yesterday. Found a slightly older one with Honor written in the collar. No idea if that makes s difference in the juice.
Probably a good move though mate 🤌🤌🤌
Cheers Rams never sniffed this one heard , like you say it’s not a front and centre kinda typical Amouage , I just never gravitated nor thought about a bottle 😮cheers have a great day man ✌️🙏👍
Yeah if you are going to skip a Chong Era Amouage, this is probable the one to skip 💪🐏
Incidentally, the only thing about Amaffi a cursory google search will bring up, is redditors claiming a Russian tv station did a news segment exposing how the brand was set up as a pet project (that potentially doubles as a tax scheme) for an oligarch’s young, bored trophy wife LOL.
Unrelated but as someone who shares your general taste in fragrances, I think Parfums de Nicolai would be worth checking out for you. I admit I sometimes go for things thatre obscenely pricey BECAUSE they’re expensive, but Nicolai is likely the best price for value brand I’ve found; roughly Santa Maria Novella prices, (unless you buy a 30ml, then it’s even cheaper), and she has the pedigree Roja *claims* to have i.e. she’s a Guerlain, president of the Osmotheque, etc.
Beautiful comment and back story on Amaffi lol
I have a few Parfums de Nicolai frags that are on the never ending "to review" list 💪🐏
Man I completely agree, this is nice, but not exciting. You still inspire me to give it some time on skin next chance I get though. 😅
Btw, have you thought about doing a ranked Opus video once all the reviews are done?
Yes RANKED Opus video will come once all the reviews are in... it's a great idea 💡
Hi Ram 🙋🏻♀️ same here , great review 🙌🏼have a bottle, but for some reason I do not like to wear it 🫣
Yeah I think it's one of the weaker releases under Chong... still better than most Niche releases in 2011...but I think him & Nathalie Feisthauer never saw eye to eye
@@RamseytheRam yes , totally agreed 👌🏼
Curious, now that Christopher Chong is at Thameen, have you tried any fragrances released under him?
I have not... I tried to reach out to them to get some juice to do videos on but they never got back to me. Funny enough Chong wrote me back and said write the distributor and I was like nahhh that's to much work.
He convinced me to just do it which I did and got no response lol
One day I will smell some Thameens 🙂
Ah yes, the last bottle I need to complete my C. Chong “Man” collection. I admit, I’ve put off buying this one for the same reasons you mentioned in your video. Still on the fence. Do I drop 200 bucks for a pleasant frag that I’ll wear once/twice a year just to complete the collection or move onto other things on the buy list? Ergh! So hard… 😩
rhetorical question. The collection needs to be completed 😅
Buy it mate !
You can always sell it if you want, trust me.
Bravo to your Amouage collection !
@@dusanninic5372 good point, Dusan! 😅
I passed on the bottle because I have all these samples...but the collection in me sighs 😞
Thank you so much. Amouage is on of my favorites too
I can honestly say that honor man is my least favorite
For some reason I really dislike the pepper note
I can appreciate that man.. thanks for watching & sharing your thoughts 🍻
I just got jubilation that stuff is fire . I got a simple of crimson rocks . omg just smells awesome..
Yes I have a sample of crimson rocks somewhere... I will review it soon
Thanks for watching & commenting 💪🐏
Your instincts are right. Figment Man has already been axed.
Not surprised one bit... sad to hear though 😢
I’d love to see your take on a Harmonist Fragrance called “Moon Glory”.
I will put it on the never ending to sniff list 🐽
@@RamseytheRam it’s suppose to smell like Hawaii at night. It’s a white and yellow floral fragrance.
Go Spurs Go!!! JK. Thanks for the video as always.
Thanks for watching & commenting 💪🐏
I have the same one but I'm worried that the cap doesn't come back if it's put in wrong. Does that mean it's a copy?
I have never seen an amouage cap that doesn't face forward everytime
Nice like the mavericks
🐴
Oh, You made a review of Honor before Figment. What a..." Dishonour ". 😂 Jk
I might even review Boundless before Figment Man... so many Amouages to review... so little time 😂
i think you should focus first on the amouages that are straight fire artistic powerhouses. @@RamseytheRam
I appreciate the rec... but sometimes I gotta fit em in where I can... Boundless review probably in the next day or two and then we will move on to Figment Man & Beloved Man 💪🐏
It’s not a fragrance that I particularly enjoy that much, it’s nice, but not for me. I like the heavier, more resinous offerings from the house. Cheers!
Thanks for watching & sharing your thoughts Andrei 🍻
Vintage is like honey, much better than the new one, almost as good as Reflection
Thanks for watching & sharing your thoughts 🙂
I find amouage abit to niche for my tastes. Heard this one smells like wet paper in the drydown? But always wanted to sample it. The one amouage I do like is reflection 45 but the price has just increased again & now its £425! Absolutely taking the piss
These houses love taking the piss 😒
I'll have to get a Decant, and try it out........🤝🏾🇺🇸💪🏾🫡
Yes do report back and let me know what you make of it 🤝
@@RamseytheRam I certainly will Ram, I'm a fan of Amouage and have been for a while. Sorry about the late response Man, I had a VA appointment today. Have a Blessed Day Brother........🤝🏾🇺🇸💪🏾🫡
