Description
Description
A honeyed, smoky oud-and-incense oriental that wears like ceremonial robes — dark, opulent, and unmistakably grand.
Composed by Bertrand Duchaufour for the Omani house Amouage and launched in 2007 to mark the brand’s 25th anniversary, Jubilation XXV Man layers jammy blackberry over frankincense, clove, and a deep base of myrrh, oud, and opoponax. Reviewers consistently call it one of the most complete masculine orientals of its era — a fragrance that feels both regal and intimate.

Translation: a woody, resinous oud spine wrapped in honeyed sweetness and warm spice, with a soft floral-incense glow rather than anything bright or fresh.

FAQ
Is Jubilation XXV Man a strong, long-lasting fragrance?
Yes. Most wearers get 6 to 9 hours with confident projection in the first few hours, making it an excellent evening and cold-weather scent.
Does it actually smell like oud?
Yes — real oud sits in the base alongside myrrh and opoponax, but it’s rounded by honey, blackberry, and incense, so it reads rich and refined rather than harsh or medicinal.
What’s the difference between the sample and the decant?
The 1mL sample is a few wears to test compatibility; the 5mL decant gives you weeks of regular wear to decide if it earns a full-bottle spot.
Is this the men’s version?
Yes, this is Jubilation XXV Man, the masculine Eau de Parfum — distinct from the women’s Jubilation fragrance.
