A*Men Kryptomint 2017
Kryptomint takes the A*Men format and inverts it: mint and sage open with an aggressive cool-herbal blast — fresh, almost medical in intensity — before surrendering entirely to A*Men's signature gourmand base.

By the editors · 2 min readKryptomint takes the A*Men format and inverts it: mint and sage open with an aggressive cool-herbal blast — fresh, almost medical in intensity — before surrendering entirely to A*Men's signature gourmand base. Tonka, vanilla, patchouli, chocolate, and coffee form the familiar accord: dark, sweet, resinous, animalic. The structural trick is the deliberate discontinuity — the cooling mint has nothing to say to the warm gourmand below it, and somehow that tension is the whole point. A limited edition that wears like a thought experiment: two registers that don't transition so much as exchange.
