What Reddit owners say
4/5 ProjectionValue“Yep it's a clone of Lafayette St. it's frequently under $20 too so it's a steal. I have pretty much the entire Nitro Line from Dumont and all of them are incredible and beast mode projection/performance. Lafayette St / Reflection Man is one of my favorite DNAs so I have a bunch of their clones . Dumont Nitro Homme is strong fyi If you can find Sculpture EDP (blue bottle ) for under $35 that's also a good pick up . The EDT Sculpture is great but longevity isn't too good fyi. Gucci Guilty Elixir (while alittle more expensive) is also a great pick up for this DNA .”
5/5“My bottle and cap are great but whew the atomizer is junk. Reflection man is one of my favorites but for that dollar amount it should be perfect.”
4/5 Fresh & cleanValue“\- Amouage Reflection Man.”
2/5 Longevity“Underwhelming : Xerjoff Renaissance . Too simple, poor performance on me , didn't get the hype . Surprise : Reflection Man . Not a fan of florals but that one turned out to be one of my fav. Its thick, complex yet elegant and reffined”
5/5 Fresh & clean“Arabian Oud Sultani - Speed Legends ish with rose. Just got a decant and its fantastic. Matier Premier Neroli Oranger - beautiful clean neroli/orange blossom scent. Can get pretty affordably from discounters. Guerlain Neroli Plein Sud and Neroli Outrenoir feel pretty masculine and varying degrees of fresh. NO is phenominal and my favorite L'art scent I have smelled. Reflection Man is very popular but I have only gotten my nose to a dupe of R45.”

5/5“I am a female married to a man - I love wearing Lyric Man and Reflection Man both from Amouage.”
5/5 Winter“Nice list! Blonde amber and Outlands are incredible. Blonde amber may be my personal favorite, though unfortunately my wife is not a fan :( Reflection Man is nice, but for some reason it gives Christmas season daytime energy I gotta check out the others”
4/5“I recently got into exploring their house after trying Reflection Man and it became a staple for me now. I have Sequence on the side. Outlands/Reflection 45 on the way. The quality of the scent and performance is very good. I was hoping Sequence was going to be fresher with the few fruit notes it has but the incense still dominates. I'm hoping this new one will be fruity and less to no incense.”
5/5“It was a very nice scent that I loved until I have smelled Reflection man. Anyway for under 100 euros, that's a steal.”
5/5“If I'm wearing a suit or dressed to impress ain't nothing holding a candle to the GOAT. However this is so wearable anytime. It's Reflection Man with Iris. As someone who loves the note this is a top pick”
4/5 Fresh & cleanUnique“Nice. I like a clean, daily scent that is a little different. I tried Reflection Man for the first time yesterday and I hate that it so darn expensive, because I absolutely love it.”
3/5“Yeah for sure, I tried reflection man and I was so disappointed with the smell and performance. Like it's ok but not worth more than 125$”
5/5 Everyday“I have over 250 fragrances, mainly ME, designers and a few niche etc . A signature scent is a scent that's 1. pretty versatile and 2, it's a fragrance you absolutely adore/love. For me, (as a 47yo man) it's Amouge Reflection man or any one of its excellent dupes. I can wear that anytime and all the time 👌”
5/5“How similar is Prada Llome vs Reflection man. I have Prada Llome and it's my favorite. Wondering if it will be redundant to get Maougae reflection man”
5/5 Value“I respect it. I purchased reflection Man for an amazing price and it was worth the wait. But I knew ahead of time about their turnaround times.”
5/5“What would you recommend as an intro into Amouage? I wore reflection man and loved it. There's a physical Amouage store near me so I'd like a top 4 you'd recommend I try. Tyia! (Cool collection btw!)”
4/5 Projection“Yes I love Amouage as well, I have Outlands, reflection man and elsewhere, great house! Pacific chill performs pretty well! I got 5-6 hours longevity then become skin scent, it projects very well in first two hours.”
4/5 Unique“I agree with whoever said Timber is more wearable, same goes for reflection man imo. I'd go so far as to say Outlands is smoother as well and as such an easier wear. Decision smells great, don't get me wrong, but that strong frankincense/pine vibe can be sort of polarizing. I bought a decant of it, so I could wear it a few times but it just didn't “do it for me, everyone's nose is different. Glad you like the purchase. It is a great option from Amouage!”
5/5“I've had all of them 😂 strangely enough Reflection Man has been my least favorite due to the floral overdose. At least my skin.”
5/5“Thank you! I've not sampled Reflection 45 or a dupe and I do love Reflection Man. Based on what I've read, 45 might be more up my valley. I have multiple bottles in the Reflection Man, Lafayette Street realm. I like a good floral.”
4/5“I think reflection man is a nice cologne that gets mentioned for the white floral aspect as well .i don't have a recall woth certainty that it aligns exactly. I do appreciate getting some floral experiences outside of rose and orange blossom. I ordered a decant and it remains still one of the most memorable ones. Highly recommend.”
Not rated (no clear sentiment) Formal“For special occasions I layer Reflection Man and Blue Talisman Extrait, I do three sprays of Reflection —both sides of neck and chest, and two Blue Talisman on the inner elbows to let it project and it does wonders”
Not rated (no clear sentiment)“I have the Dua clones of Valentino edt and extradose, polo 67, one of their adventus clones (much nicer than the middle eastern clones I've tried several), ADG absolu instinct, Amouage reflection man, Prada paradigme, one they called it a clone of a older version of bdc which I like a lot but I also like the current bdc and own the real one. They have big sale rn and I ordered 4/5 more.”

Not rated (no clear sentiment)“Dark, mysterious, resinous, smoky it's not like anything I've owned before, it's my second from Amouage! Reflection man was my first and it's still one of my favourites”
Not rated (no clear sentiment) Batches & reformulation“I bought a backup of Khadlaj Shiyaaka Silver because it was only 10€ and it smells ridiculously close to Amouage Reflection Man. Other than that, I don't buy backups until the bottle I like runs out. If it goes out of production or gets reformulated, oh well. My collection would last me through several lifetimes, I won't worry if lose access to 1 fragrance. The only exception to this is CdG Black, 2 and Odeur 10. I'll probably buy backups of those at some point.”
Not rated (no clear sentiment)“Reflection Man. I wear that when I go to weddings. It just seems appropriate to me, for some reason.”
Not rated (no clear sentiment)“I wore reflection man”
Not rated (no clear sentiment) Winter“I keep seeing my weeks obsession compared to reflection man, but not sure how accurate it is. Prada Lunna Rossa Sport. I have a bias toward winter scents, so finding something like that with a little more versatility had me excited immediately.”
Not rated (no clear sentiment)“I got Shobi reflection man 45 coming soon . Hope it would be a winner”
Not rated (no clear sentiment)“All 31 colognes in my collection I spray way more than 8x except 3 Bois Imperial Amouage Reflection Man Moschino Toy Boy”
