XXV for me.
Surprised Epic is so low down there? Would it be many people's second choice?
If the question was which Amouage of those you don't own, my choice would be Memoir (still undecided if it's a FBW purchase for me)
From the list, Jubilation XXV.

My true love CIEL ( this is summer in bottle , summer on beach .... ) , next one would be Reflection...
Memoir, with Epic & Dia a joint second. There's enough character in me for my frags...heh.![]()
Dia for me, please.
Jubilation XXV is my main pick. Lyric would've been my 2nd.

Thanks for the info. Andrews in downtown Toronto better have this.![]()
I almost went with Ceil as I don't have it and it's on the buy list for summer. However, the debate was between Memoir and Jube XXV based on which bottle I'll run out of first and that would be Memoir.
The Epic Woman suggestion is great, however. That's man stuff, IMHO.
My first bottle was Amouage Dia , Silver Cologne ( Now I tired of Silver Colgne )
and Amouage Homage Attar
From Your list the next Memoir Man or Jubilation XXV Man
no in your list my next Amouage Tribute Attar

Gold, I have the others I like.
santal attar is conspicuous in its absence.

Gold for me.
Lyric.
I own Jubilation XXV & Reflection so next in line would be Dia Man. If I did not have any of em, I'd definitely go for XXV.
Haven't explored anything from Amouage yet, but I'm eager 2 do so
Memoir Man. Outstanding.
There was a similar poll between Epic and Jubilation XXV last summer, and Epic won that poll with a slight margin:
http://www.basenotes.net/threads/257696-Amouage-Epic-or-Amouage-Jubilation-xxv.
9 months fast forward, and Jubilation XXV is liked 5 times more than Epic. Could this be a Fall v/s spring phenomenon?
I voted for Epic BTW.
I voted for Jubilation XXV, but I've been gifted of Memoir Man (wich I chose as a gift). A very hard choice for me.

I'd take Lyric![]()
The really good ones in my opinion are Silver which is a very high quality daily wear, Dia man which is superb, a bit more formal,Gold man which is flamboyant ott genius. I like ciel man too.
I find the later ones by different perfumers to all have a slightly lesser quality of ingredients and composition. They seemed to switch to using more pre composed base accords. Still damn good though and much better than almost everything else out there.
The particular frankincense they use is sublime.

reviews
Jubilation xxv by far!!!! One of my all time favorite frags
I'd agree with most of this. I'm not as fond of Silver, though, as it's a little to dry for my tastes. My list would probably be:
- Dia
- Ciel
- Jubilation XXV
- Tribute
- Gold
Ciel is, IMO, majorly misunderstood and underrated. I've found most of these older Amouages to require some time and patience to unlock. I hated Gold Men the first time I smelled it...and many times after. Eventually, I found myself coming to grips with it, and then, finally, seeing some genius in it. The frankincense in these older fragrances is incredible.
I agree with Hirch that the newer ones seem a little more "generic" than the older ones. It's as if they've taken a step in the direction of designer fragrance major releases.
