Description
Inspired by the myth of Adonis — a fruity rose fragrance that is masculine, opulent and impossible to ignore.
Launched in 2022 as part of the Argos Artist Series, Adonis Awakens draws its story from the moment Aphrodite rushed to a dying Adonis, cutting herself on a thorn and staining the white rose crimson with her blood. Bergamot, grapefruit and pink peppercorn open with a bright, invigorating freshness before Bulgarian rose, Sambac jasmine, creamy vanilla, chestnut and raspberry bloom in a rich, opulent heart. The dry-down of Mysore sandalwood, cashmere wood and rose absolute is provocative, sensual and extraordinarily long-lasting. A rose fragrance with genuine masculine backbone — one of the most complimented fragrances in the Argos lineup.
🍊 Top: Bergamot · Grapefruit · Pink Peppercorn
