This Bracken doesn’t add up for me; it lacks body and substance (they said it was a hyper-bomb, and that’s the furthest thing from the truth). It gives me a weird vibe, like a ‘marine’ fougère, a meeting between Platinum Egoiste on top and a diluted, undernourished Tsar by Van Cleef on the base. I don’t detect the nutmeg they mention, nor the clove, and the lavender is blurred out at the start with wet fern and loses its emotion. Overall, a strange composition that, in its quest for the avant-garde, fails to break through anywhere.
The opening is strange: it smells of dampness, wet earth, and lavender. That sense of humidity comes from the mix of patchouli and spices. It calms down a bit but doesn’t disappear, highlighting a earthy patchouli with mentholated nuances. There’s a timid genian, and the lavender hides away. Although cinnamon has few votes, I smell it well. In the final dry-down, it leaves a woody and musky scent, quite bland, boring, and weak. It can be used in any season except when it’s very hot; it’s totally masculine. It doesn’t fit a woman. The performance disappointed me; after two hours, it was barely audible unless you put your nose right next to it. For an Amouage, that’s strange. Personally, I didn’t like it; it doesn’t convince me. It has good things for those seeking wet earth scents and can be bought cheaply, but the performance is bad. In short, a resounding NO for me.

Yeah, definitely an Amouage rarity. The first impression was horrible; I thought it smelled terrible. A green-earthed, mentholated opening driven by patchouli. As it dried out, the cypress wood and spices kicked in, with the clove standing out, making it dry and spicy. I didn’t detect the lavender, maybe I was sniffing too hard. It left me cold and I discarded it, but days later, when I wore a t-shirt I’d sprayed earlier, the magic happened. The scent was faint but smelled glorious: a slightly green, dry, and spicy bush, reminiscent of Masque Milano Terralba or F. Malle’s French Lover. It reminds me of Houbigant’s Fougère Royale but without the sweetness and with added clove. It has nothing to do with Platinum Egoiste or Tsar, except that it’s ‘green.’ Regarding performance, the stories about it being a bomb are forum nonsense. It’s a light scent with little body, but it has excellent longevity, especially on clothes. Absurd at first, but it eventually made me feel special.
I went to Alicante and couldn’t resist trying Bracken Man at the department store. I was already intrigued by the descriptions. This fragrance radically departs from that cluttered, Arab, and dense conception that defines Amouage. Bracken means ‘fern,’ and indeed, it fits squarely into the Aromatic Fougère family. It evokes damp, mossy, and earthy scents—clearly organic and austere, like freshly cut grass, the opposite of the animalistic opulence of their other perfumes. It shares that green facet with Memoir Man but without the incense touch, leaning more towards classics like Caron’s Third Man. Frankly, it neither thrilled nor repelled me, but it’s of enormous quality. It wins on versatility compared to the rest of the brand; I recommend it for all seasons except very hot days. Longevity is a solid 10, though the projection is discreet. Ideal for those seeking something sober, though if you’re looking for the typical Arab vibe of Amouage, this option doesn’t fit. A bit obvious for formal occasions.
A niche version of Aramis Havana. At least according to my skin and nose. They diverge a bit in the dry-down, but for almost the entire life of the perfume, it’s impossible not to make that comparison.
I was eager for this different Amouage proposal. The ones I’d tried were oriental, and this broke the mold—it’s a fougère. And it is, from start to finish. I’m truly surprised in a positive way, not just because Amouage made a fougère, but because I love the result. With so many notes, it’s hard for me to distinguish them, but in every phase it has a balance worthy of highlighting, with body and its own character. It’s not a bomb like other fragrances from the brand, but it has notable longevity, about 8 hours, although projection and sillage fade after 3-4 hours, becoming skin-close without needing to bring the nose very close. It creates a halo around the wearer without invading anyone, very easy to wear and versatile. Something curious happens to me: after 5-6 hours, it resembles Amouage Reflection a lot. Yes, I know they don’t share many notes, especially the jasmine that stands out in Reflection, but it reminds me a lot of that Omani masterpiece, another point in its favor. It’s a fragrance I really like, and although some perfumecollectors abhor classifying by seasons, in my opinion it’s for autumn and spring, though it wouldn’t go bad in a mild summer or a not-too-cold winter.

That’s all I’ll say: I tried it yesterday and found it unbearable to wear on my wrist. I haven’t even named the ingredients yet, but it must have a base that makes me hate other fragrances that use it. I hope to forget it, because otherwise, it could ruin the ones I already own.
I see it’s not to everyone’s liking based on the reviews. I say it’s a charming scent, green, bright, and luminous. A classic Old School with a lot of distinction, modernized for our times. Upon spraying, you notice the lavender, clove, nutmeg, cypress, and a subtle citrus touch. As it dries, the patchouli stands out, along with a clean musk and sandalwood. It’s refreshing, revitalizing, lifts your mood, and feels energetic. I simply loved it. To give you an idea, saving for the differences, it has the same vibe as Loewe’s Solo Platinum; it’s not the same, but part of the chorus sounds similar. A perfume to use whenever you want, whenever you feel like it, to feel good, lift your spirit, formal or informal, young or adult—it suits anyone. Recommended for spring, summer, and mild autumn days. Scent 10/10, Sillage 8/10, Longevity 7/10, Projection 8/10.

I was about to delete my previous comment because now I own this fragrance. This shows how subjective olfactory opinions can be. I think the store where I tried it overwhelmed me with all the mixed scents. In fact, nothing they sold there appealed to me, even though they were prestige brands. I kept reading about it, and curiosity got the better of me. Since I’m not an expert, I recommend Landberk70’s comment, which describes it very well. It’s vegetal and smells like wet earth, without any sweetness. My sister said it smelled like the jungles from her trip to Mexico. It’s not an easy scent, neither good nor bad, without artifice. That’s why I don’t know how to place it for a specific use. It’s something you wear when you want to smell like that, period.
Greetings to fellow addicts of this expensive vice (perfume, obviously). I’m part of it too. Bracken means fern, so it belongs to that aromatic family. Its notes, like in other Amouages I’ve had the pleasure of trying, are very natural. Longevity is outstanding, but projection and sillage leave much to be desired. It’s a pleasant scent, but its lack of sillage turned me off; I had to sniff my skin like a bloodhound. To me, it smells like pouring cold water on a hot summer stone to cool it down, releasing a scent that takes me back to childhood playing in the countryside with pure air. It also reminds me of certain tropical plants among wet stream stones, with a slight nod to Bvlgari Aqva. Does anyone else perceive it this way?
It seemed unique to me at the start, like being in the middle of a forest with its shade, damp with fresh moss and inspiring fresh air. Then it settles into a very soft patchouli, subtly spicy and very elegant, giving it an old-school fragrance point. The pity is that my husband doesn’t like it; it reminds him of sweat… I’ll have to forget it.

A proper, no-nonsense fougère. The clove, lavender, and earthy, wet notes like damp soil are very noticeable. It has a stern look to it. Masculine and elegant. I prefer Beau de Jour without a doubt; it’s more contemporary.
Smells incredible; I’m a huge fan of this type of aroma. It’s a fougère, but spicier at the start and mossy at the end. That sensation dominates every phase without losing its fougère identity. It feels vintage yet modern, elegant, masculine, and mature. Everything is concentrated, pure Amouage style. I won’t go on, though, because there are three things that don’t work for me: it’s discontinued, the performance isn’t great, and the price. It fits my style perfectly—intermediate seasons without extreme heat or cold, and serious occasions rather than formal ones. What a shame they’re discontinuing these scents.
It smells incredible; I’m a lover of this type of aroma. It may be a fougère, but it’s spicier in the opening and mossy in the dry-down. That sensation dominates every phase, yet it remains a fougère. It feels vintage but current, elegant, masculine, and mature. Everything feels concentrated, in the purest Amouage style. I won’t go on, as there are three things that don’t fit for me: it’s discontinued, its performance isn’t the best, and the price. It fits my style very well for intermediate seasons without extreme heat or cold, and in many situations, but they should be serious occasions rather than formal ones. It’s a shame they’re discontinuing these aromas, honestly.
It’s rich, but falls short compared to other fragrances from the same house.
