Amouage Epic Man EDP

Description

Epic Man is one of Amouage's most acclaimed compositions, a woody amber eau de parfum inspired by the Silk Road that once connected Oman to China, composed by Randa Hammami. Genuine agarwood (oud) anchors the base alongside sandalwood, patchouli, and leather, while a spiced top of pink pepper, cumin, cardamom, and saffron gives the opening real bite. This is authentic, high-concentration Amouage oud, sourced the way the house has worked since 1983, using precious raw materials rather than synthetic stand-ins.
