Mugler A*Men Pure Havane is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2011, created by Jacques Huclier. A*Men Pure Havane opens with Honey and Tobacco, settles into a heart of Cacao Pod, Patchouli, and Vanilla, and dries down to a base of Amber, Labdanum, and Styrax. Mugler's A*Men Pure Havane carries a Statement verdict, a musk-led wear.

A legendary designer tobacco-honey bomb, Mugler's Pure Havane is a smooth, sweet, and slightly smoky masterpiece that's a crime to have discontinued. It's often compared to Naxos, but don't get it twisted - this came first and, for many, it's still superior.

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.

Declarable under EU Annex III

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Pure Havane opens with a rich, almost cherry-like honeyed tobacco, evoking a high-quality cigar dipped in something sweet and indulgent. As it settles, creamy vanilla and warm cacao emerge, melding with an earthy patchouli. The drydown leaves a lingering trail of amber and styrax, adding depth to the lasting sweet-tobacco warmth.
