Epic 56 by Amouage is a dense, resinous scent built for the coldest months. Cinnamon, cumin and pink pepper open it warm and faintly dusty, with none of the usual citrus lift. Damask rose, geranium and jasmine tea follow, keeping the spice floral rather than sharp. The base is where it really lives: musk, vanilla, orris, guaiac wood, amber, sandalwood, patchouli, agarwood and olibanum stack into something dark and slow to fade. Worn by men and women alike, it suits anyone who wants weight and spice over anything soft or fruity. Voters keep it for winter and into autumn, almost always once the sun goes down. The longevity vote leans long-lasting. Most wearers separately call its sillage strong, so it fills a room. Try it as a 3ml decant across a run of late, cold evenings.

The community verdict
Cinnamon and cumin give Epic 56 a spicy start before rose, oud and amber settle in. Wearers differ between long-lasting and exceptionally long-lasting, while most find its projection strong; some find it room-filling. It fits winter evenings, with autumn and nights working too.

The house
More from Amouage
Amouage was founded in Oman in 1983, and its perfumes still carry the country's long history with frankincense and resins. Expect rich, layered compositions: incense and labdanum, saffron and cardamom, rose and jasmine over sandalwood and oud, made to unfold slowly rather than announce themselves. Guidance is the newer face of the range, woody and softly fruity on a warm amber base. Interlude Man is the resinous, spicy one, while Reflection Man sets clean white florals over woods. Honour Woman is a bright, green tuberose for anyone who likes flowers with backbone. A small decant of two or three shows which side of Amouage suits you.
