About Cloveo

Stepping into the ring with all the bravado of a heavyweight champion, Cloveo—a heady aromatic fougere perfume—pulls no punches in proclaiming its masculine and luxurious character. It bursts onto the scene with a right hook of cloves, a swift uppercut of nutmeg, and a left jab of cinnamon, all anchored firmly by the ironclad presence of cedar. This virile and green opening salvo leaves a wake of intrigue that keeps you on your toes, always guessing what will come next.

As the bout unfolds, the clove, with all its fiery intensity and depth, stakes its claim center stage. It leads the charge in a no-holds-barred fusion of woody and spicy notes, setting the stage for a thrilling, head-spinning olfactory journey. Dancing in the ring next are geranium, cinnamon, cedarwood, and sandalwood, executing a complex choreography of scents that packs a wallop.

In the final round, as Cloveo nears the end of its aromatic spectacle, the comforting base notes of patchouli and musk step forward, wrapping you in a warm, aromatic embrace, akin to a soft blanket on a cold winter's night. This scent takes a bow, paying homage to classic fougeres while cleverly throwing in a contemporary twist that sets it apart from the competition.

A surefire contender for the confident and refined gentleman, Cloveo never fails to make a lasting impression. With its layers of intricacy and sophistication, it's a knockout choice for special occasions or those times when you're keen to land a bold statement. With Cloveo, you're not just wearing a scent; you're donning an attitude.

Cloveo is a fresh, herb-forward cologne for men with an opening built around the invigorating contrast of lemon and bergamot, rounded with cypress.

Why Choose Cloveo Over Bracken Man?
  • Shares the same core DNA as Bracken Man: the opening lemon, the geranium heart, and the patchouli dry-down are all present and accounted for.
  • Designed for men, making it a versatile choice for personal wear or gifting.
  • Part of the aromatic fougere family, with primary notes of Lemon, Bergamot, Cypress, Lavandin, Nutmeg, Clove.
  • Longer wear time than many in its class — typically lasting 8+ hours on skin, with projection that suits both daytime and evening wear.
  • Priced to make the aromatic category accessible without sacrificing quality ingredients or formulation care.
  • Worth noting: as an alternative rather than the original, the projection and sillage may differ slightly from Bracken Man — particularly in the first hour of wear. The character is faithful — the experience is its own.

The base of patchouli and musk gives Cloveo a smooth, skin-close finish that develops over time.

Why Is Amouage's Bracken Man So Expensive?

Amouage's Bracken Man carries a premium price for reasons that go beyond the juice itself. High-end fragrance houses invest heavily in brand positioning, campaign spend, and retail partnerships — costs that are folded directly into the price consumers pay. The bottle design, packaging, and distribution through luxury retailers add further overhead before a single spray is used. Raw materials also play a role: natural-sourced versions of notes like lemon or patchouli can vary significantly in cost depending on sourcing and quality tier. Cloveo uses high-quality aroma compounds selected to replicate the character of Bracken Man — without absorbing those downstream costs. The result is an aromatic cologne that performs on skin with the same confidence, at a price that reflects the scent — not the status.

How does an aromatic cologne for men translate the brightness of lemon and the depth of geranium into something wearable all day?

Cloveo answers that question with a well-structured composition: the lemon opening is clean and immediate, while the geranium heart carries the identity of the scent through the middle hours. It's the patchouli base that gives it staying power — and the kind of presence that draws compliments without demanding attention. Stepping into the ring with all the bravado of a heavyweight champion, Cloveo—a heady aromatic fougere perfume—pulls no punches in proclaiming its masculine and luxurious character.

If your ideal scent is clean, herb-forward, and built for everyday confidence, Cloveo belongs in your collection. It's the kind of fragrance you reach for without thinking — and reach for again tomorrow.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Cloveo a good dupe for Bracken Man?
Yes — Cloveo is one of the closest alternatives available to Bracken Man. It shares the same aromatic character, with matching top notes ofLemon, Bergamot, Cypress, Lavandin, Nutmeg, and Clove, and a base that develops in a similar direction on skin. It won't be molecule-for-molecule identical — no alternative fragrance is — but the character, longevity, and overall impression are very close.
How does Cloveo compare to Bracken Man in terms of longevity and sillage?
Cloveo typically lasts over eight hours on skin, which is comparable to — and in some cases longer than — Bracken Man. Sillage (how far the scent projects) is moderate: noticeable in close quarters without being overpowering. As with any fragrance, performance will vary based on skin type, body heat, and where you apply it — pulse points like the wrists and neck generally give the best results.
What are the top notes of Bracken Man?
The top notes of Bracken Man include Lemon, Bergamot, Cypress, Lavandin, Nutmeg, and Clove. These opening notes create the initial impression of the scent — typically the brightest and most volatile part of the composition, lasting the first 15–30 minutes on skin before giving way to the heart.
What are the middle and base notes of Bracken Man?
The heart notes — which define the character of the scent once it settles — include Geranium, Cinnamon, Cedarwood, and Sandalwood. The base notes, which form the long-lasting dry-down, are Patchouli and Musk. Together they create the full arc of the fragrance from first spray to end of day.
What occasions is Bracken Man best suited for?
Clean, fresh, and broadly appealing, Bracken Man works well across most settings — work, travel, or casual social situations. Cloveo fits the same range of occasions.
What does Lemon smell like?
Lemon is one of the more recognisable opening notes in the aromatic family. In the context of Cloveo, it reads as green, slightly herbal, and clean — the kind of opening that reads as fresh without being generic.
Where can I find other fragrances similar to Bracken Man?
You can browse our full range of alternatives to Bracken Man on the Amouage collection page. We also carry a broader selection of aromatic colognes if you'd like to explore the wider fragrance family.
How long does Cloveo last?
Cloveo typically lasts over eight hours on skin. For best results, apply to pulse points — wrists, neck, and behind the ears — on moisturised skin. Applying to dry skin or over clothing can reduce longevity slightly.
How should I store and apply Cloveo?
Store Cloveo in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight and heat — a drawer or cupboard works better than a bathroom shelf. Apply to pulse points on clean, moisturised skin. Avoid rubbing the fragrance in after spraying, as this can break down the top notes prematurely.
Is Cloveo suitable for sensitive skin?
Cloveo is formulated with high-quality ingredients and is designed for skin application. If you have sensitive skin or known fragrance sensitivities, we recommend a patch test on a small area of skin before full use. Discontinue use if any irritation occurs.
What are your shipping and return policies?
We offer free standard shipping on all orders over $150. Orders are typically processed within one business day and delivered within 5–7 business days. If you're not fully satisfied, you can return or exchange any unopened, unused product in its original packaging within 20 days of delivery. See our full policy page for details.
Do you offer gift wrapping or personalised messages?
Yes — gift wrapping and personalised messages are available at checkout. It's a straightforward option to add a personal touch without extra hassle.
Are your fragrances cruelty-free?
Yes. Our fragrances are cruelty-free, and we use recyclable materials in our packaging wherever possible. We select supply chain partners based on their commitment to ethical labour practices and environmental responsibility.
Do you offer discounts for bulk or gift purchases?
We do offer pricing for larger orders. Contact our customer service team directly for information on bulk purchase options.

How to Layer Cloveo with Bontà

Combining a aromatic fragrance with a oriental one is a classic layering technique — each family brings something the other lacks, and the result on skin is more complex than either worn alone. Cloveo and Bontà are selected by our scent team as a pairing with strong complementary notes.

How to layer them: Start with Bontà as your base — apply it first to pulse points (wrists, neck, behind the ears) and allow 30–60 seconds for it to settle. Then layer Cloveo on top. The sandalwood base of Bontà anchors the composition, while the lemon opening of Cloveo lifts the blend and adds character on top.

Pair Cloveo with Bontà.
The herbal freshness of lemon contrasts the warm, resinous sandalwood of Bontà, producing an oriental-aromatic blend that's complex without being heavy — suited to transitional weather and evenings.
