The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

A*Men Pure Havane by Mugler, launched in 2011, is a fragrance that has transcended its status as a flanker to become one of the most sought-after scents from the brand. Created by Jacques Huclier, this Oriental Vanilla composition combines honey and tobacco with warm spices and cocoa, creating an effect reminiscent of rum cake rather than straightforward tobacco. While it was discontinued, its fame now arguably surpasses that of the original A*Men, making it a must-have for fragrance enthusiasts.

How to wear it

This scent blooms beautifully over time, so it's best applied lightly at first. The warm, boozy notes will develop fully within an hour, making it perfect for evening wear when you want something rich and enveloping.
