Azure line
Perfumer: Harry Fremont
From the creator of CK One, the big hit that started the whole fresh abstract perfumes fashion in the 90’s.
Compare the work of the same perfumer 25 years later: layered fresh, elusive, complex and ever changing haze of dark green coriander leaves, aromatic mate tea, cool almost metallic saffron and cold rain like bracing oakmoss.
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
This is a scent for close conversation in a bright, shaded room, where its green spice and cool moss can unfold without ever becoming heavy. It gives the impression of composure with a faint breeze of salt air and powdery warmth underneath.
How to wear
Best in mild to warm weather, when its citrus, herbs and moss can stay luminous rather than dense. Two to three sprays are enough; it wears with a soft, steady aura, opening fresh and aromatic before settling into suede, oakmoss and a dry, powdery finish.
Who it’s for
For wearers who like fresh fragrances with structure: green, aromatic and slightly dry rather than sweet or aquatic. It suits someone drawn to refined, unisex scents with a cool edge, subtle spice and a quietly textured trail.

The nose
Harry Fremont is a master perfumer at Firmenich best known for CK One, a landmark fragrance that helped define the fresh, abstract style of the 1990s. His work often balances clarity with complexity, using clean structures that still feel textured and modern. In Azure Haze, Fremont revisits that fresh signature through a more layered lens: green coriander, aromatic mate, metallic saffron and mossy suede create a scent that shifts between brightness and depth. It shows his skill at making a fragrance feel effortless while still evolving on skin.
Collaborators
Helen and Serge Mint, the brand founders, shaped the wider creative direction of the Azure collection, which was developed from their Riviera-inspired concept and built over several years before launch. Their role was to frame the mood and brief that Fremont translated into scent.
MINT’s story
M.INT builds fragrances as carefully composed emotional objects, combining premium materials, modern technology and a polished, high-taste aesthetic. The house favours distinctive, layered compositions that feel refined rather than loud, with a clear emphasis on atmosphere and craftsmanship.
Azure Haze’s concept
Azure Haze was created for M.INT’s debut collection and released in 2016 after a long development process. The concept was inspired by a dreamy summer morning at an exotic seaside, with the founders’ Riviera memory helping shape the collection’s coastal, sunlit and slightly mysterious character.
Extra info
Azure Haze was part of M.INT’s debut collection and is one of the house’s signature early releases. It pairs Harry Fremont’s fresh-abstract sensibility with a more coastal, mossy and suede-toned composition than the cleaner style he is often associated with.
