Pure Havane
EDTMen
The Story
Pure Havane is a bold, sweet tobacco fragrance that feels like a vintage leather armchair in a smoky lounge. The opening is a blast of honeyed tobacco and cherry, softened by patchouli and cacao in the heart. The base is a warm, resinous blend of labdanum and vanilla that lingers for hours. It's a classic from the Mugler A*Men line that's both comforting and daring.
