Andrea Maack Supernova is an Extrait de Parfum launched in 2023. Supernova opens with Cardamom, Cinnamon, and Saffron, settles into a heart of Cedar, Cypress, and Lavender, and dries down to a base of Leather, Vetiver, and Oud. Andrea Maack's Supernova carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

Supernova is a sophisticated and intriguing woody spicy scent, though its unique blend of notes makes it divisive. Some find it a beautifully complex, dusty, spicy lavender oud, while others feel it's a muddled, unbalanced creation. Not one for the faint of heart.

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

With its long-lasting performance and moderate sillage, Supernova is best suited for evenings and dates where its complexity can be appreciated without being overwhelming. The rich woody and spicy notes, coupled with leather and oud, make it less ideal for casual daywear or sporty activities, and it might be a bit much for a typical office environment.

About

Supernova opens with a warm, inviting embrace of cardamom, cinnamon, and the leathery spice of saffron. This vibrant start soon melts into a heart of aromatic cedar, crisp cypress, and a soft whisper of lavender, adding a sophisticated, slightly herbal edge. The journey culminates in a deep, resonant base where earthy vetiver and robust leather entwine with the distinctive, subtle presence of oud, creating a lasting impression of rich, woody elegance.
