Supernova by Aaron Terence Hughes is a unisex fragrance released in 2024 in Eau de Parfum concentration.
The fragrance is part of the Citrus Collection, combining bright citrus freshness, juicy fruity accords and an expressive chypre base.
It is a fragrance for those who enjoy distinctive compositions with plenty of momentum and a memorable drydown.
Supernova unfolds with energy, modernity and confidence: its fresh opening gradually gains volume, acquiring a marine coolness, fruity juiciness and a warm musky-woody depth.
The fragrance was created by the British niche house Aaron Terence Hughes, founded in 2019.
The brand is known for its rebellious spirit, bold presentation and desire to create charismatic fragrances with a strong presence, so Supernova naturally continues its recognizable aesthetic.
The composition was created by Aaron Terence Hughes, the brand’s founder and perfumer.
In his signature style, fresh and easily recognizable accords receive a rich, almost cinematic development, while the finish lingers on the skin longer than one might expect from a citrus fragrance.
At first, Supernova smells sparkling and juicy: the citrus accord creates a sensation of a cool burst of energy.
It then becomes fruitier and more airy, while a marine note adds transparency and a light salty nuance.
The final stage is the most expressive and long-lasting. White musk, grey amber, oakmoss, patchouli and ginger create a deep trail with a clean, woody-mossy and subtly spicy character.
As a result, the fragrance does not remain simply fresh: it gains a seductive density and a distinctive personality.
Supernova is positioned as a unisex fragrance and develops equally impressively on women’s and men’s skin.
It can be chosen for active days, walks, travel, meetings and occasions when you want to make an impression without heavy sweetness.
The composition smells best in warm weather, transitional seasons and on cool summer evenings.
Its very strong sillage makes the fragrance noticeable, so it is best applied with care: precise recommendations for the number of sprays on skin and clothing have not been provided for this release.
With its combination of fruity freshness, sparkling citrus and an expressive base, Supernova may appeal to fans of Creed Aventus.
For further exploration of a similar mood, you may also consider Rancé 1795 Heroique and Creed Aventus 10th Anniversary, comparing their intensity, fruity nuances and sillage character.
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 fresh scent that is not too intense, so it does not overwhelm those around you with strong essences
A rich and elegant fragrance that gently unfolds on the skin and lasts most of the day, leaving a delicate trail
Fragrances for spring and summer unfold with light citrus notes, floral and fruity accords, filling the composition with freshness, airiness, and a feeling of carefree lightness on warm days
The top notes unfold in a bright citrus accord: bergamot, grapefruit, mandarin and orange create a juicy, sparkling and invigorating opening.
The opening is sunny and clean, with a slight bitterness of citrus zest.
In the heart of the composition, apple, pineapple and a marine accord come together. The fruity notes add juiciness and a gentle sweetness, while the marine facet makes the fragrance cooler and more airy.
The base is built around a combination of ginger, grey amber, white musk, oakmoss and patchouli.
This accord gives Supernova volume, longevity and a rich chypre-woody character with a subtle spicy nuance.
