Avanto Nakuna Helsinki, introduced to the world in 2020, is officially considered a unisex fragrance, rooted in the green, sea, and floral families. Conceived and brought to life by perfumer Olivier Pescheux. The fragrance concentration is eau de parfum.
Country of origin — Finland. 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 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 composition of Avanto unfolds as a layered story, where layers reveal themselves smoothly and sequentially. The creative approach of Nakuna Helsinki is evident from the opening to the final trail. Every decision feels deliberate, and the composition keeps a clear direction. Eau de parfum supports a balanced rhythm of unfolding.
As soon as the fragrance opens you detect invigorating sunny opening notes: Citrus accord and Marine accord. These 2 notes build sunny vitality that is impossible to miss.
At the core of development you sense Grass, Jasmine and Rose holding a pure leafy direction.
The olfactory framework is shaped by these accords: Citrus, Floral, Musc and Wood with each one in a clear role. Background accords such as Marine add depth to the backdrop. The profile is unisex, which clarifies the composition character.
At olfactory-group level the structure relies on Citrus, Aquatic, Green and Whiteflower. The framework further includes Floral, Wood, Musk and Earthy / Mossy. At family level the composition sits in Floral, Green and Sea.
In summary Avanto sounds complete from start to finish — the opening sets direction, the heart develops the core line, while the drydown anchors the memory. These are the fragrances best understood on skin.
