Fragrance Family: Woody Floral Musk
Launch Year: 2024
Gender: Unisex
Season: Best suited for Spring & Summer
Scent Profile:
L’Aventure Ciel opens with a bright and citrusy introduction of lemon, bergamot, and fresh citrus notes, delivering an uplifting and refreshing first impression. The heart evolves into a delicate blend of jasmine tea, violet leaf, and lavender, creating a soft floral accord with herbal undertones. The fragrance settles into a warm and musky base of sandalwood, ambergris, and musk, adding depth and longevity to its airy composition.
Performance & Wearability:
- Projection: Very subtle, sits close to the skin
- Longevity: Light and short-lived (a few hours)
- Best Time to Wear: Daytime, warm weather
- Versatility: Casual, everyday wear
Key Considerations:
While L'Aventure Ciel offers an enjoyable and fresh floral scent, it has limited sillage and longevity, making it more of an intimate skin scent. Wearers who prefer a more pronounced projection may need to overspray.
Dupe or Not?
Though some buyers were drawn to L’Aventure Ciel as a potential affordable alternative to Creed’s Millésime Impérial, it lacks the marine/aquatic notes that define Millésime Impérial and its popular clone, Armaf Milestone. Instead, Ciel leans more into floral and musky territories, making it a distinct fragrance rather than a true dupe.
