First Step to Mars Yan Frolov, that first saw the light of day in 2021, is marketed as a unisex fragrance, drawing from the mineral family. This fragrance is the personal signature of perfumer Yan Froloff. The fragrance belongs to the fairy group. Available as eau de parfum.
Expect a moderate sillage — enough to be remembered, not enough to overwhelm. The longevity of this fragrance is moderate — exactly what most occasions call for. Behind this fragrance stands Russia and its rich perfumery heritage. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.
The fragrance has medium longevity and lasts on the skin for about 5-6 hours, gradually revealing its notes and leaving a pleasant impression
It can be felt in close proximity, but does not attract the attention of those around you
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
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 scent of First Step to Mars evolves as a living composition, where notes flow without rush and without gaps. The style of Yan Frolov is evident in the pacing of the notes and the overall aesthetic. No excess details, only what works, and the structure feels complete all the way through. Eau de parfum supports the depth and body this composition needs.
At olfactory-group level the profile is anchored in Fairy and Mineral. At family level the fragrance belongs to Mineral.
Without strict stage separation the fragrance opens as a single chord with a mineral-marine mood: Dust, Ozone, Powder and Rubber.
The heart and base are felt as a gradual shift without abrupt breaks, which keeps the fragrance coherent.
The accord architecture is shaped by these accords: Abstract and Mineral with each one in a clear role. The stylistic positioning is unisex, which clarifies the composition character. In wear duration Middle indicates a stable lasting impression. In trail behavior Middle shows the style of diffusion around the wearer.
In summary First Step to Mars holds a coherent structure — the first stage creates momentum, the heart develops the core line, and the final phase leaves a stable imprint. These are the scent structures best understood in wear.
