Amouage Overture Man Eau de Parfum strides in with a confident woody spicy aura that marries a rich cognac accent to glowing myrrh and frankincense, brightened by grapefruit, cardamom, and ginger, then shaped by cinnamon, benzoin, and labdanum before settling into leather, sandalwood, and an animalic whisper for a dramatic, elegant signature inspired by an operatic gentleman’s mystique.

Story & Positioning
Overture Man is described by the house as instantly arresting and inspired by solitude and stagecraft, an operatic portrayal built around myrrh, sandalwood, and smoky frankincense. It is crafted at thirty-one percent perfume oil and aged for six weeks with three weeks of maceration and three weeks of maturation, which lends a poised, expansive trail suited to evening occasions.
Bottle & Design
A clear, softly beveled glass bottle lets the deep amber liquid glow like old cognac. Centered on the face, a warm rose-gold Amouage crest sits above refined AMOUAGE and OVERTURE lettering, leaving generous open glass around it. The cap is a sculpted rose-gold crown in the brand’s hilt silhouette with a small crystal at the peak, seating neatly on a narrow metal collar and giving the bottle a polished, ceremonial feel. The base is thick for stability. The presentation arrives in a charcoal box with an abstract, draped-fabric effect and a centered black name plaque, echoing a night at the opera and setting the bottle in a molded cradle.
