Amouage Portrayal Man Eau de Parfum for Him sketches a sleek violet leaf over smoked woods, creating a cool green sparkle that meets earthy vetiver and the leathery dryness of cade. Inspired by the audacity of 1920s bohemian culture, it feels polished yet provocative, airy at the start, then gradually more shadowed, leaving a modern woody leather trail that reads distinctive, stylish, and quietly powerful on skin.

Olfactory Notes

Story & Positioning
Conceived as an olfactive portrait of the roaring twenties and its free-spirited artistry, Portrayal Man pairs a crisp green opening with mineral vetiver and a distinctive smoky base. The eau de parfum is crafted at 25 percent perfume oil and aged for 6 weeks, split between maceration and maturation, which lends a smooth, steady diffusion suited to day and evening wear. Fans of violet leaf over leather-tinted woods who enjoy refined contrasts will find this a compelling choice.
Bottle & Design
A clear rectangular flacon clad in an iridescent pearl panel gives Portrayal Man an opalescent glow. The face shows a dark metal Amouage medallion with crisp lettering, while a sculpted gunmetal cap set with a blue cabochon crowns a narrow ring engraved with Portrayal. Light plays along the softened edges and the thick glass base keeps it steady. The presentation box continues the theme in dusty blue with an art deco rosette pattern for a refined, collectible finish.
