The opening is strange: it smells of dampness, wet earth, and lavender. That sensation of dampness comes from the blend of patchouli with spices. It calms down gradually but doesn’t disappear, highlighting an earthy patchouli with mentholated nuances. A timid genian is noticeable, 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, rather bland, boring, and loose. It can be used in any season except with much heat; it is totally masculine. It doesn’t suit a woman. The performance has disappointed me; after two hours, it was barely audible, only when bringing the nose close. For an Amouage, it is strange. Personally, I haven’t liked it; it doesn’t convince me. It has good things for those seeking wet earth scents and can be bought cheaply, but bad points like the performance. In short, a resounding NO for me.
This Bracken doesn’t quite fit for me; it lacks body and substance (people read it as a hyper-bomb, and that’s far from the truth). It gives me a strange feeling, like a ‘marine’ fougère, an encounter between Platinum Egoiste on top and a diluted, undernourished Tsar by Van Cleef in the base. I don’t detect the nutmeg mentioned, nor the clove, nor the lavender, which here comes blurred at the start with wet fern and loses emotion. Overall, a strange assembly that, in its search for the avant-garde, fails to break through anywhere.

Well yes, a rarity from Amouage. The first impression was horrible; I thought it was terrible. A green-earthed, mentholated opening driven by patchouli. As it dried, the cypress wood and spices entered, with the clove standing out, making it dry and spiced. I didn’t notice the lavender, perhaps looking for it in vain. It left me cold and I discarded it, but days later, when I wore a t-shirt where I had sprayed it, the magic emerged. The scent was faint but smelled glorious: a slightly green, dry, and spiced bush, in the style 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 is ‘green’. Regarding performance, the stories that it is a bomb are forum nonsense. It is a light scent, with little body, but with excellent longevity, especially on clothes. Absurd at first, but it eventually gave me a special kick.
I visited Alicante and simply couldn’t resist trying Bracken Man at the John Lewis department store. The descriptions had already intrigued me. 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 notes, something clearly organic and austere, like freshly cut grass, the opposite of the animalistic opulence found in 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, I neither loved nor hated it, but it is 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 ten, though the projection is discreet. Ideal for those seeking something sober, though for those looking for the typical Arab vibe of Amouage, this option doesn’t fit. A bit obvious for formal occasions.
Niche version of Aramis Havana. At least according to my skin and nose. They differ 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 expectant with this different proposal from Amouage. The ones I had tried were more oriental, and this breaks the norm; it is a fougère. And so it is, from start to finish. I am truly surprised in a positive way, not because Amouage has made a perfume in this family, but because I love the result. With so many notes, it is difficult for me to differentiate them, but in all phases it has a balance worthy of highlighting, with body and its own character. It is not a bomb like others from the brand, but it does have notable longevity, about 8 hours. Its projection and trail are felt for up to 3-4 hours, then it becomes skin-scented, without invading anyone, very easy to wear and versatile. Something curious happens to me: from 5-6 hours it resembles Reflection, also by Amouage, a lot. Yes, I know they don’t have many common notes, especially the jasmine that stands out in Reflection, but it reminds me a lot of that Omani wonder, which is another point in its favour. It is a perfume I like very much, and although there are perfume addicts who abhor classifying by seasons, in my opinion it would be for autumn and spring, though it wouldn’t go amiss in a mild summer or a not-too-cold winter.

That’s all; I’ll say I tried it yesterday and it became unbearable to wear on my wrist. I haven’t named the ingredients yet, but it must carry a base that almost makes me hate other fragrances that use it. I hope to forget it because, by rebound, it could spoil the ones I have.
I see it’s not to the liking of those reviewing it. I say it’s a charming, green, bright, luminous aroma. A classic Old School, with distinction and modernised for today. At first, you notice the lavender, clove, nutmeg, cypress and a faint citrus touch. At the end, patchouli, a clean musk and sandalwood. Refreshing, revitalising, mood-lifting, energetic. I simply loved it. To give you an idea, saving distances, it has the same vibe as Loewe Solo Platinum, it’s not the same, but part of the chorus sounds similar. A perfume to wear whenever you want, whenever you want to feel good, formal or informal, young or adult, it suits anyone. Recommended for spring, summer and mild autumn days. Scent 10/10, Trail 8/10, Longevity 7/10, Projection 8/10.
I was going to delete my previous comment because I’m now the owner of this fragrance. This shows how subjective olfactory opinions are. I think the shop where I tried it was overwhelming me with all its mixed scents. In fact, nothing they sold there pleased me, although they were prestigious brands. I kept reading about it and curiosity was sparked. As I’m not an expert, I recommend Landberk70’s comment, which describes it very well. It’s vegetal and smells of damp earth, without sweeteners. My sister said it smelled like the jungles of 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 and nothing more.
I see it is not to the liking of those reviewing it. I say it is a charming scent, green, bright, and luminous. An Old School classic with great distinction, modernised for our times. On exit, the lavender, clove, nutmeg, cypress, and a subtle citrus touch are noticeable. As it dries, the patchouli stands out, along with a clean musk and sandalwood. It is refreshing, revitalising, lifts the mood, and is energetic. I simply loved it.

Greetings to addicts of this expensive vice (perfumes, of course). I’m part of it too. Bracken means fern, so it’s from that aromatic family. Its notes, like in other Amouages I’ve had the luck to try, are very natural. The longevity is outstanding, but its projection and trail leave much to be desired. It’s a pleasant scent, but its little to no trail put me off; I had to press my nose against the skin like a hound. To me, it smells like when you throw cold water on a hot summer stone to cool it down, releasing a scent that reminds me of childhood playing in the countryside with pure air. It also recalls 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; it’s like being in the middle of a forest with its shade, damp with fresh moss and inspiring fresh air. Then it leaves a very soft patchouli, subtly spicy and very elegant, giving an old-school fragrance touch. The pity is that my husband doesn’t like it; it evokes sweat for him… I will have to forget it.

A proper fougère. The clove, lavender and earthy, wet notes like damp soil are very noticeable. It has a stern look. Masculine and elegant. I prefer Beau de Jour without a doubt; it’s more contemporary.
It smells incredible; I am a lover of this type of aromas. It may be a fougère, but more spiced on the opening and mossy in the dry-down. That sensation predominates in every phase, yet it remains a fougère. It feels vintage but current, elegant, masculine, and mature. Everything is perceived concentrated, in the purest Amouage style. I won’t go into detail, as there are three things that don’t suit me: it is discontinued, its performance is not the best, and its price. It adapts very well to my style, intermediate seasons without extreme heat or cold, and many situations, though they should be serious occasions rather than formal ones. A pity that they discontinue these aromas, the truth.

It’s rich, but falls short compared to others from the same house.
