The review
Special Man Cologne Set scores 4.8 out of 10 on paper — a long shot territory for anyone chasing More Than Words.
HK Perfumes sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is More Than Words's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
Strength: cologne — lighter than most originals.
At $125 it costs 39% less than More Than Words.
Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength HK Perfumes publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.
What it's built to smell like
Xerjoff More Than Words is cardamom, damask rose and dried fruits at first, rose, fruity notes and spicy notes at its heart and agarwood (oud), ambergris and labdanum at the end. HK Perfumes set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.
Top
- cardamom
- damask rose
- dried fruits
Heart
- rose
- fruity notes
- spicy notes
Base
- agarwood (oud)
- ambergris
- labdanum
For the one who speaks in gestures, drenching a sweet jammy damask rose in dark oud and resinous warmth.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
