Honey, dried fruits, resins, woods done very well. Another great creation from this house of many.
All the Queen’s Men is one of newest three releases from the brilliant Melbourne-based house of Fort & Manle, capping off the brand’s new presentation, still in 50ml size, as well as the new collection, which keeps some earlier releases with others being discontinued.
All the Queen’s Men’s a sweet, sappy, fruity, woody blend, a nectar of honey, dried fruits, resins, vanilla, and a light sprinkling of cinnamon. It involves the dried fruit in a very skillful way, maybe more so than, say, Tobacco Vanille, but less so that in a fragrance where the fruits might better be described as “stewed”—wetter, more pervasive. Here, the balance among the honey, resins, dried fruits, and cinnamon (against a vaguely woody backdrop) is pivotal.
As with other Fort & Manle fragrances, it’s difficult to anticipate how well the sum of the parts plays off, but as usual, they execute superbly with a very enjoyable final product that, while not being the most unusual/innovative/daring concept, pays off in a big way due to the smoothness and ease of wearing.
All the Queen’s Men is EDP concentration and performs well, also, not outstandingly like some of the darker scents in the line, but its performance is good. It is priced at $250 for 50ml, now the price for every fragrance n the line, a notable increase from before for all except Bojnokopff, and the only two stockists in the US are Luckyscent (whose physical locations are known as the Scent Bar) and Tigerlily, whose main operations are in Los Angeles and San Francisco, respectively.
