    Real talk

    Epic Man is not subtle. This is a fragrance that announces itself, and the frankincense upfront is unmissable. If you want something for the boardroom, look elsewhere.Epic Man
    This is the fragrance for someone who's done searching for 'the one.' The frankincense and balsam open like a door left deliberately ajar, herbal, slightly medicinal, unmistakably present.Gurjun Balsam
