A-140 | Inspired by Aventus

Fruity, smoky and self-assured. Inspired by Aventus.

Juicy pineapple in the opening, but not the way you'd expect: right underneath sits a dry, smoky edge that makes it grown-up. After a few hours it dries down to a clean, warm skin scent.

How it develops

On top, a fruity, sparkling layer: bergamot, blackcurrant, apple, lemon and pink pepper. The heart is where the pineapple lives, alongside patchouli and Moroccan jasmine — sweet and green at once. But the base defines the character: birch, oakmoss and cedarwood bring the smoke and the wood, musk and ambroxan make it soft and skin-like. Fruit and smoke side by side — that contrast is the whole fragrance.

Who it's for, and when

Works everywhere: job interview, office, evening, and at its best in autumn and winter. The safest gift in our men's collection — you don't need to know the recipient's taste to get it right. For her there is C-370, the soft, powdery counterpart. Looking for something fresher and lighter, see S-50.

How to wear it

Two sprays on the neck, one on each wrist, on moisturised skin. Don't rub. Because projection settles after the first hour, one extra spray on your clothing is the way to keep it present all evening.
