The house of IKON gifted the world with 709 in 2020. A unisex fragrance belonging to the spicy, east, and wood families. Offered in eau de parfum concentration.
the United Kingdom is where this fragrance comes from — and it shows. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.
The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
A rich and elegant fragrance that gently unfolds on the skin and lasts most of the day, leaving a delicate trail
Perfumes for the fall and winter seasons often contain notes of vanilla, spices, ambergris, wood, and other warm accords, creating a feeling of comfort and warmth during the cold months
The olfactory structure of 709 evolves as a layered story, where notes flow with precision and warmth. The signature of IKON comes through from the opening to the final trail. No excess details, only what works, and the fragrance holds its character from opening to trail. Eau de parfum keeps a balanced rhythm of unfolding.
The internal accord map rests on these accords: Balsamic, Gourmet, Floral and Wood forming a compact and readable structure. Additional accords such as Amber and Spicy add depth to the backdrop. The gender direction is unisex, which makes the scent profile easier to read.
In the top tier you catch appetizing gourmand top note: Coffee.
When the opening settles you notice Frankincense, Jasmine, Spices and Tobacco keeping a resinous meditative direction.
At the note-group layer the structure relies on Gourmet, Balsamic, Whiteflower and Spicy. It also reaches into Wood and Ambery. From a family perspective the composition sits in East, Spicy and Wood.
In summary 709 holds a coherent structure — the opening sets direction, the central phase adds depth, while the drydown anchors the memory. These are the fragrances best understood through real development.
