Florian Pontier Havana is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2025, created by Émilie Bouge. Havana opens with Pepper, Cinnamon, and Tobacco, settles into a heart of Nutmeg, Tonka Bean, and Labdanum, and dries down to a base of Papyrus, Vetiver, and Vanilla.

Havana is a love-it-or-hate-it scent that dives deep into the rich and mysterious. It’s bold but might not be everyone's cup of tea.

Scent Profile

Composition

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.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.
