Quintessence Collection

A fragrance-to-share

The emblematic fifth element at Avant is a perfume. Avant Quintessence, this semi-oriental floral amber fragrance, sweet, warm, with an elegant powdery base harmonised with flowers and a spicy note, makes this ‘fragrance to share’ the very essence of sophistication: A modern classic. Its sillage is unforgettable both in its depth and its masterful style. A novel of love, rich writing, an oriental feel, expressing an assertive and sensual self. 

Avant Quintessence has distinctive top notes of elemi infused with mandarin, which blends with the zestiness of orange blossom to bring a vibrant freshness.

At the heart, the uplifting scent is reminiscent of warm moonlit walks and Mediterranean nights when Jasmine becomes its most potent. This intoxicating and sophisticated scent begins with the heady florals of Jasmine with an unexpected twist of refreshingly sweet Orris and Plum.

As for the base notes, earthy and woody Patchouli and Vanilla, Praline, and White Musk create the perfect foundation for this sultry scent, defining and reaffirming a ‘fragrance-to-share’ suitable for unisex use. 

Avant Quintessence: one of the most evocative fragrances, unforgettable for its richness as well as for the mastery of its composition.
