Amouage Enclave

Amouage Enclave is the real designer fragrance, sold at most major retailers. When one of our partners carries it, a direct buy link shows up here. The "smells-like" alternatives below are for anyone who wants the profile for less.

Amouage Enclave opens with Cardamom, Mint, Pink Pepper and Cinnamon; a heart of Rose, Patchouli, Incense and Vetiver; drying down to Labdanum, from notes Amouage (official) publishes. Those notes read as floral, spicy, amber, woody, smoky, the coarse families Amouage (official) cites. How it wears depends on your skin and the concentration. We only publish notes and accords we can trace to a source.

We rank the "smells-like" alternatives to Enclave by how closely their cited accords match the original, cheapest first. A dupe is meant to evoke Enclave, not match its formula, and we say as much. If we can't verify a genuine match yet, we leave it off.

Amouage Enclave is listed as unisex, marketed for anyone, which is how we'd wear it too. Fragrance has no inherent gender; the label just reflects how the retailer sells it.

Armaf Club De Nuit Iconic (shares Mint, Labdanum, Incense); Xerjoff Golden Green (shares Labdanum, Cardamom, Incense); Armaf Sauville (shares Mint, Labdanum, Pink Pepper). These share specific notes with Enclave, a closer match than a shared accord family. We rank them by how many of Enclave's cited notes they actually share, weighting rarer notes heavier than ubiquitous ones. Each is its own fragrance with real, sourced notes, not a copy of Enclave, and has its own page.
