Modest Une

Afnan Modest Une is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2019. Modest Une opens with Lavender, Pepper, Mint, and Nutmeg, settles into a heart of Eucalyptus, Amber, and Citrus, and dries down to a base of Musk, Cedar, and Vetiver. Afnan's Modest Une carries an Acquired verdict, a fresh spicy-led wear.

This one's a proper troublemaker. Afnan's Modest Une is either a beast-mode, spot-on Sauvage dupe that lasts forever, or a barely-there skin scent that smells of dodgy cardboard. You'll either love it or furiously return it.

Its fresh, spicy accords and common association with a popular 'blue' fragrance make it perfect for casual wear and dates. While many report strong performance, some find it too potent for the office or formal events, causing headaches or being 'choking' if oversprayed.

About

Modest Une kicks off with a sharp, peppery lavender blast, brightened by mint and nutmeg for an invigorating, spicy introduction. As it settles, a fresh rush of eucalyptus and citrus emerges, softened by a touch of amber. The dry down mellows into a woody, musky base with vetiver and cedar, giving it a clean, masculine finish.
