Aedes de Venustas - Sueño Latino – Eau de Parfum

Aedes de Venustas SUEÑO LATINO Eau de Parfum

With Aedes de Venustas SUEÑO LATINO Eau de Parfum, you step into a world where tropical fantasy meets urban sophistication, merging into a scent as elusive as a mirage. Created by master perfumer Gabriela Chelariu of Firmenich, under the visionary direction of Karl Bradl and Robert Gerstner, this composition marks the 13th olfactory chapter in the iconic Aedes de Venustas collection. It’s a fragrance that defies the clichés of tropical perfumery, offering not a sweet, obvious fruit bomb, but a nuanced exploration of texture, atmosphere, and contrast – a tropical mirage that is as much about memory and mood as about place.

A Mirage of Nature and Culture

The idea for SUEÑO LATINO was born from Karl Bradl’s desire to create a scent that evokes tropical elements like fig, cherimoya, and mango without ever succumbing to predictability. He envisioned a composition that doesn’t build around a single, recognizable fruit note, but one that captures the feeling of the tropics – lush, humid, and alive with contrasts. The fruit notes are soft, textured, and almost abstract, providing the suggestion of tropical abundance rather than an overt declaration. Anchoring the composition is an elegant suede accord, wrapping the fruit and floral notes in a veil of refinement, while light woods and subtle spice lend depth and complexity.

As Karl Bradl explains, “We wanted to create something that evokes heat and lushness, but with depth, sophistication, and a slightly woody undertone. Unisex, nuanced, and mysterious, in the line of the Aedes de Venustas character.” There is no focus on a singular ingredient here; instead, the entire composition breathes as one – a rich tapestry of damp green leaves, blurred fruit, creamy suede, and whispering woods.

An Olfactory Composition Inspired by Atmosphere and Mood

SUEÑO LATINO opens with a burst of brightness: bergamot, Brazilian red pepper, Peruvian pink pepper, and davana leaves combine for a lively, spicy-green start, evoking the scent of foliage glistening with rain. The heart reveals the lush creaminess of rosa mango and milky fig, an abstract, textural blend that feels both tropical and sophisticated. The base weaves a sensual trail of suede musk, guaiac wood, Mysore sandalwood, olibanum sap, amber, and earthy patchouli, creating a complex, evolving scent that settles into the skin like a whispered promise.

This is not a fragrance of instant recognition but one of quiet elegance and evolving discovery. Gabriela Chelariu describes her creation as “very lush, very rich, contrasted with wetness and earthiness. There’s lots of moss, lots of humidity, all inspired by the elements. SUEÑO LATINO is a fairytale land of nature.”

From the Jungle to the City – An Urban Tropical Fantasy

SUEÑO LATINO is more than a fragrance; it’s an invitation to experience the meeting point of dense rainforests and the urban jungle. Imagine towering Amazonian trees weighed down by rain, contrasted with the hot pink walls of Mexican architect Luis Barragán. It’s the scent of blooming birds of paradise and the rhythm of salsa music vibrating through the night. It’s handfuls of fruit melting into soft leather, warm woods, and subtle spice – an atmosphere rich in contrasts. The inspiration behind the name draws from the 1989 track "Sueño Latino", evoking a dreamy, sensual energy that resonates with the fragrance’s mood of a tropical mirage. As Karl Bradl puts it, “At the end of the day, fragrance itself is a dream. You close your eyes, and you disappear.”

This composition embodies the spirit of lushness and restraint, of vivid colors softened by shadows, of vibrant fruit tempered by refined woods. It is not a literal postcard of the tropics but a hazy, dreamlike night where heat clings to the skin and the air is thick with scent. The atmosphere is humid, the textures creamy, the scent a continuous, undulating interplay between nature and culture.
