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 itโs 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.ย 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.
