The review
On paper, Expedition is a reasonable bet if you want Journey Man for less.
Perfume Parlour sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Journey Man's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
It is sold as an extrait — a high concentration, which usually means it sits closer to the skin for longer.
At $114 per 100ml it costs 50% less than Journey Man — the cheapest of 3 twins we can price.
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 Perfume Parlour 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
The original opens on Sichuan Pepper, cardamom and bergamot, turns to tobacco leaf, incense and juniper berries, and settles into leather, cypriol and Tonka Bean. That is the brief Expedition is working from.
Top
- Sichuan Pepper
- cardamom
- bergamot
Heart
- tobacco leaf
- incense
- juniper berries
Base
- leather
- cypriol
- Tonka Bean
Tingling Sichuan pepper over sweet tobacco and leather — spicy, smooth and irresistibly moreish.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
How it ranks against the other twins
Of the 4 twins of Amouage Journey Man we can price, Expedition is number 2 on price per 100ml.
- 01 Perfume Parlour Expedition For Men $114/100ml
- 02 Perfume Parlour Expedition $114/100ml
