Grounded 坤元 by AENTOS is a fragrance for women and men. This is a new fragrance. Grounded 坤元 was launched in 2025. The nose behind this fragrance is Maxime Exler. Top notes are Mandarin Orange, Grapefruit, Cardamom, Lemon, Cumin and Pine; middle notes are Orange Blossom, Virginia Cedar, Olibanum and Cypriol; base notes are Guaiac Wood, Patchouli, Ambergris, Incense and Amber. Grounded, chinese name Kun Yuan/坤元, is born from this collective awareness, one that flows from traditional Chinese culture into a contemporary respect for nature. The rising smoke of incense becomes a delicate thread connecting earth and sky, allowing those carried forward by wind and rain to steady themselves once more through scent. The warmth of woods and resins settles into the skin, as if gently supported by the ground itself, offering calm, strength, and a sense of belonging.

The Inspiration
A fragrance is more than a list of notes. It is the atmosphere, memory, and feeling that remains long after the first spray.
