Aether

Aether by French Avenue, released in 2024, is a green, woody citrus worn by anyone. Everyone who describes it calls it green, woody and citrusy; about half also find it gourmand, musky and floral.

Green apple, bergamot and mandarin orange open it with crisp, juicy, slightly tart brightness. The heart is dry and modern: cedar for a pencil-shaving wood, petitgrain for a green, bitter twig note, violet for a cool, powdery sweetness and cashmeran for a warm, musky, velvety wood. The base is earthy and clean: oakmoss for a damp, bitter forest-floor depth, amberwood for a smooth, modern amber glow and musk for a soft, skin-like finish.

Most wearers report moderate longevity and a moderate sillage, with a minority finding it weak or intimate, so expect a scent that stays fairly close. It is voted mainly for summer and spring and almost entirely for daytime, which suits its fresh, green character: the office, warm afternoons and casual wear.
