What do reviewers say about Epic Man and Emerald?
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
Oud without apology. That's the draw here, smoky depth, warm spice, and a floral softness that makes it approachable. For those who've wanted oud but found it too intense elsewhere.Emerald
Good to know
