Wow-moments

Since its launch, Amouage has made a name for itself as a luxury brand that isn’t afraid to use expensive and unique materials to deliver one-of-a-kind fragrance experiences. Jubilation XXV is certainly no exception.

The fragrance is so complex and brilliant, that even upon first impression your mind is working to keep up with your nose; trying to accommodate the experience in its entirety without missing something. You feel a little bit of everything. There are warm spices, a bit of delicate fruit, some incense, a myriad of woods that never quite appear independently, but rather serve to support the other accords. It is truly a masterpiece of a blend. It is one of the few fragrances I’ve smelled and literally stopped to say “wow” before returning to my wrist like a drug addict. It can be completely perplexing. And to those of us who’ve smelled a lot of stuff, the ability to recapture that confused feeling every once in a while is wonderful.

Amouage is a great house..

... but with this one I can unfortunately do nothing.
Too berry, too pungent, too sweet, too sour. just too much of everything.
I'm a big resin fan but then this blend gets really too dense and unharmonious.
Stay there rather with Interlude (only resin and spice bomb) or Journey Man ( animating juniper berry with spice)
These are clearer, more harmonious and higher quality appearing fragrances

Did you steal my Jil Sander?!

The long discontinued, but much appreciated Jil Sander Woman III... For the very special occasions my mother has left for 5 years still 10ml in the bottle. In my lifetime, I wouldn't think of even touching the bottle. I can understand her concern though - is it the moss, patchouli, myrrh, laurel, orange...? The similar scents actually briefly remind me of Jil Sander, even if Jubilation comes across as much more masculine. He goes, however, in the same direction.

Jubilation XXV smells directly at the spray head after "old granny" (quote sister, geriatric nurse, must know). Nevertheless, he became one of my favorite fragrances from one day to the next. It is definitely oriental-woody, but brings a tremendous lightness. It's not as heavy and dark as, say, an Interlude or an Au Coeur du Désert. On the skin and in the sillage, it is then no longer granny-heavy at all, so do not worry.
Otherwise, it should be emphasized that the combination of blackberry, frankincense and myrrh must be an absolute highlight for every fragrance lover.

The Amouage fragrance is by and large "generally acceptable", without even slipping into the mainstream. Compliments are sure. The fragrance radiates masculinity, steadfastness, self-confidence and strength of character, without seeming unsympathetic. Due to its almost majestic appearance, it is absolutely not suitable for the youthful audience, that would just seem silly. I think so from 25/30 is showtime.

H/S are such a thing in themselves in this case. Although one does not perceive him himself steadily, he is nevertheless present for others. The nose close positioned one has 24h still something of it. In the first hours Jubilation XXV can easily fill the room - everyone who enters the room first asks what smells so good here. For this, 2 generous sprays are enough. With a favorable draft, it is still well recognizable after 8 hours.
At the same time, it is absolutely not intrusive, in my opinion, it is also well suited as an office fragrance and in any case as a signature fragrance.
Jubilation can be wonderfully layered with Molecule 01, thereby one perceives him even more clearly.

By the fact that the fragrance is not so heavy and is also absolutely restrained with the sweetness, you could wear it in my opinion without hesitation throughout the year, but maybe not just at 35 degrees in the sun, there's better. So attention: who is looking for a fresh summer fragrance, is guaranteed not happy with Jubilation XXV.

It is definitely too expensive. It is also not worth looking around for equal alternatives - the magic of Jubilation there is no second time. Maybe that justifies the price then after all.
Little secret at the end: since I found out that you can perceive the fragrance itself well, in which you step back a step while walking forward, I do it regularly. Luckily, no one has seen this yet. Imagine if the one knew the reason for the behavior :D

Amouage... famous for intense M(oud) swings...

Amouage knows how to incorporate the famous "Oriental Kaboom" in each of its fragrances, no matter how much they are interspersed with all kinds of ingredients ;-)
With Jubilation XXV (the 25-year-old for 14 years ;-) this also comes to light...

The berry start, which is very nice, is, according to my sensation, shortly after again replaced by a perceived mountain of smoking oud. Well, an Oriental, the epitome of the fragrant wood...

What is also there to start with, (and not in the understatement department) is the sillage.... It extends from Muscat to the borders of Yemen ;-) This "border conflict" is however peacefully solved after approx. 1-2h... Despite everything Jubilation XXV keeps its presence with a proud chest :-)

Amouage halt

Usual performance and quality of Amouage, have rushed Reflection, Interlude and Jubilation smelled, all 3 just absolute top! For me one of the best houses! Starts with the blackberry and then comes after with the woody force behind, just a madness.

Wow ...

Well, I bought the fragrance blind and cheap because I already own some Amouage fragrances and none has disappointed me until now ...
what can I say ... the incense and the myhre in the interplay with the blackberry you perceive very well is a wares masterpiece.

The best Amouage fragrance I know so far.

You can't get more oriental than that.

Oriental fragrances are basically one of my favorite. Forced to stumble sooner or later on this candidate, also because it is one of the most popular fragrances for men on parfumo. Since Amouage is known to hurt the wallet pretty much, I have me first of all a sample to get.

And what can I say?

Jubilation is really an Oriental as it stands in the book. The prelude is clearly dominated by the blackberry, which for whatever reason, is not often found in men's perfumes. Immediately a resinous-smoky base develops, which is (and remains) very gentle and unobtrusive. Frankincense, myrrh, opoponax and the honey are the most distinct notes for me. To recognize all the notes that are listed here, I'm probably a little too untrained.

Similar to the Interlude one immediately burn images of the Orient, the desert and Arab bazaars in my head. It smells really heavenly and relaxes immensely.

But now to the reason why I did not buy a bottle of it. First, I must emphasize that I am not one of the faction that evaluates and buys fragrances only by durability and sillage. But with Jubilation, I was totally dissatisfied. Especially with such a DNA. Other fragrances that go in this direction are actually really at the upper limit of durability. After 2 hours... nothing. Still very slightly noticeable on the skin. I don't get it. Too bad.

This Amouage is without a doubt a first-class fragrance of first-class quality, as long as you smell it then. Unfortunately, this aspect has denied me a purchase.

Very nice Oriental

For me, the Amouage Jubilation XXV smells very luxurious. It is oriental, dry, fruity, spicy and woody. To smell out the individual components I unfortunately do not succeed, but I find the mixture was harmoniously matched and it leaves me with an extremely valuable overall impression. If I had to assign a fragrance to Oman without ever having been there, I would probably give it this one. I love this oriental beauty that transports you to the stories of 1001 nights. The only drawbacks for me are the projection and durability, which I think could be a little stronger.

All in all, this fragrance is currently one of my absolute favorites in terms of oriental fragrances, together with Chimaera by Tiziana Terenzi which has a similar abundance of ingredients and I still like a little better

Uno de los mejores y míticos perfumes de Amouage.
Masculino, cálido y sensual. Para otoño e invierno.
La pena es su rendimiento , quizás un poco bajo.
Si el olor durase como los primeros 30 min sería magistral.

On the anniversary: Dechafour's handwriting

Once you are registered on Parfumo, you will inevitably hear about some perfumes. Anniversary is one of those. I got to know the fragrance - DNA through a Dupe by Rasasi, which seemed rather overloaded, so I lost my interest without ever having smelled it. I only became curious again when I took a closer look at Bertrand Duchafour, of whom I know several works and who I consider to be the greatest perfume I know. Duchafour certainly has two sides; firstly, the insignificance of many designs, which is certainly due to the unusually high-frequency output for a niche market, and secondly, the genius and significance of some of the few masterpieces. These few have one thing in common, they are highly emotional, difficult to grasp in their entirety, because they are loaded with expressive and strong aromas, at the same time never slain, never intrusive.
Jubilation XXV fits exactly in this direction. Though clearly oriental in nature, but well dosed in the Duchafour manner, it manages to create an unmistakable fragrance DNA adapted to the European market. This is what the house of Amouage stands for, in a way, in connection with superior quality. A perfect choice of perfumer to create the 25th anniversary fragrance.
I will describe the fragrance itself only briefly, others before me have done so extensively Duchafour and better. As in other perfumes by Duchafour, a natural, unsweet fruit is placed in the center of attention and ensnares by tart, strong players without being covered or put in the shade.
What Timbuktu's mango and the Dzongkha's lychee is, the blackberry is to Jubi. This is lost in perfect symbiosis with gently purring puma cage animalism, as well as mild incense, not of the sacred variety, rather cultivated, freed from any scratchy disturbing symptoms. This is also known from the two perfumes mentioned above. The blackberry is in the top note, there still supported by the orange clearly more fruity, most present, but remains the course of the noticeable. Despite resins and a certain bite, Jubilation never looks grubby, dirty or sweaty. A flowery cleanliness is always maintained, which in no way contradicts the main components. This is what I count especially to the heart notes given.
In the base, leather, resin and oud are surprisingly mild, plus a musk component that smells so soft that even I, as a musk hater, like it.
So what's that smell like? Animalistic but well-groomed. Manly but not impulsive.
Woody, dark but not heavy.
The Sillage is quite reserved, only a hint of the fragrance remains, an idea of the individual notes, a teaser that makes you want more.
For an oriental fragrance, he radiates quite little, you may like it or not, but it only speaks for Duchafour's handwriting, his perfumes hardly ever come to the fore in a boorish way.

I would recommend it for autumn and winter, at any time of day or night, but not necessarily for going out. I wouldn't classify him in the seductive direction.

You can certainly call Jubilation XXV a career highlight. For a house like Amouage to choose you to create a fragrance for its 25th anniversary, and to have it become so popular - that's a knighthood beyond compare. In my opinion, it wasn't his greatest, but it was the most prestigious If you like this perfume, I strongly recommend to try other fragrances by Bertrand Dechafour

A big jumble of fruits, smoke, honey, cinnamon. Very decadent, edible. Weird mentholic accord as it dries down. Mediocre performance.

Very luxurious, there's quality without any doubt. Opens similar to Oud Wood, resinous and balsamic, then dries more on the oud side.

Despite its short-lived fruity opening, this rather linear spicy-earthy oriental fragrance is nicely balanced by a warm resinous-woody base.

"Blackberry incense on top of a medicinal wood", Fragrantica correctly says. There's only left to add, "and a skin scent in five minutes".

Very unique blending of high quality fruits, spices, incense and resins. It's maybe the most oriental of the Amouage male line. I love it!
