Great Spicy Incense Bomb
Great fragrance, very sharp and spicy with lots of incense.
Surprisingly the drydown becomes kinda sweet.
Opening is cold, sharp, peppery, spicy, incense which can be too much for a lot of people.
Amazing for outdoors colder weather.
Wore it to work once, sprayed a lot an hour or so before work and a coworker complimented me for smelling good.
I'd say just go for it when u go outdoors and go heavy on the trigger and screw the world.

Midnight beast
Some strong s*t
Definitely recommend for those who want interlude but for a fraction of the price.
Lasts all day. 2 sprays max cause you can get a headache. Smells like sweet bonfire if that makes sense. Have a shower and the smell still don't go. Value for money for sure. Interlude bottle is amazing and this is not so good but regardless of the bottle, the contents is what matters most.

An amazing one
Honnestly i'm amazed by how good and strong it is
Some.may not like the scent because of the strong scent which seems for me pepper , safron since i got the new one with a different cap,
At first i didnt like the scent just give it time , after few days you will start liking.it just use it on really cold.days + one or two sprays are enough
I got it lasting for 3 days on cloth and nearly 13hr on skin
For package and bottle ...meh not good
Anyways make.sure you bought it new
And give it a shot for 15$ ...i'm amazed really

Cheap clone, cheap quality
This is an Amouage Interlude clone, not an inspiration. It tries to exactly match the original aroma of the masterpiece created by the well-known niche house from Oman. Does it accomplish it? Well, yes and no.

Yes, the aroma is 90% similar, but there’s something here that I can’t put up with. The Amouage's original scent is difficult to wear, that's true. It has this oriental profile with spices, resins, and smoky incense, but it is beautifully blended, with a pleasant aroma that can be enjoyed by any nose, even the less experienced ones.

This clone, on the other hand, is more astringent, and there’s something in the composition that feels disgusting and can’t perceive in the original. I'm not sure whether it is the pimento note or what. The scent is sweeter, less smoky, and yeah, horrible in general.

While both are complicated fragrances, the original makes you want to smell it every time, but this clone makes you want to clean your body immediately.

This one left my collection. Yeah, it’s way, way cheaper than Interlude Man, but the quality difference is fairly noticeable, to the point that I can’t stand this one.

Sillage is very good, which I don't know whether it´s a pro or a con given how bad this is. Same with durability. Bottle is ridiculous.

I can't recommend this one. I'd rather save money and buy the original if you like this kind of fragrances.

It is well worth having!
In its opening, the bergamot is fleetingly appreciated, which lasts only a few seconds to give way to the spicy notes of oregano and bell pepper, notably marked during the exit, until they fade into the background after the incense appears forcefully and very densely, which It marks the main role of the fragrance giving it that smoky and deep character.
It is there when balsamic and resinous chords of opoponax float, together with amber and labdanum that sweeten it in a very velvety way, giving it a chocolaty aura.
And when it seems that the fragrance cannot go any further, it allows us to delight ourselves with an intense oud, a rough leather and woody accords of sandalwood that completely soak up the background of the fragrance.

Majestic, deep and mysterious fragrance, with a 100% oriental DNA.

For the price you pay, it's well worth it and it's more versatile than it appears and certainly shares a lot of kinship with Interlude de Amouage.

Hallucinatory!! a drier reinterpretation of Interlude Man, with a fairly high performance, highly recommended for oriental lovers.

After you spray, a blast of pepper-oregano and incense hits you. In the dry-down it's calm, vanilla-incensed oud with oregano/pimento touch.

90% similar to Interlude Man, but it's that 10% that makes Amouage so expensive. Still, great value for anyone brave enough to wear it.
