Amouage Interlude Man in plain words

What it smells like, how it wears and who it suits.

What it smells like

It opens sharp and peppery, with a herbal bite. That quickly gives way to thick, smoky incense and warm amber. It ends dark and dry, with leather over deep woods.

How it wears

The perfume community reports that it lasts a very long time and fills the space around the wearer. A light hand is wise, since it can overwhelm in a small room.

When to wear it

Wearers reach for it in winter and autumn, mostly at night and in the evening. It is a going-out scent rather than a daytime one.

Who it suits

It suits a man who likes bold, dark and commanding scents and wants something complex and artistic. It is strong and rich, so keep it for colder evenings.
