Quick answer: Mykonos Constantine is a unisex extrait de parfum with an aromatic, green and floral accord: cardamom, violet leaf, pineapple and mandarin on top, a clean heart of lily of the valley, jasmine, lavender and artemisia, and a dry base of amberwood, moss and white musk. Mykonos calls it "the summer king" and describes it as clean and soapy. It is moderate in intensity, tagged for spring and summer, and sold in Europe in 50 ml.
Constantine is one of the newest Mykonos perfumes, and one of the easiest to overlook: it has no collaboration behind it and no loud gourmand hook. That is exactly its point. This Mykonos Constantine review explains what it smells like from the first spray to the drydown, how strong it is, who it suits, and how it compares with the Mykonos scents people usually weigh it against. We are an authorized Mykonos retailer for Europe; the notes and descriptions below come from the brand's own product data, handbook and launch posts.
What is Mykonos Constantine?
Mykonos Constantine is an extrait de parfum in the floral and fruity families. Mykonos presented it alongside the SUNFORGED summer collection: the offline launch in Jakarta started on 31 July 2026 and the online launch followed on 8 August 2026. It is not one of the five SUNFORGED animals, though; it stands on its own, in a matte dark bottle.
The brand's product description opens with the line "the summer king" and ends with "rule the season". In its launch posts, Mykonos describes Constantine as clean, soapy and effortlessly fresh, a scent that feels like stepping out of the shower, and says it was made for anyone and for every day.
Mykonos Constantine notes: what it smells like
The full note pyramid, as Mykonos lists it:
- Top: cardamom, violet leaf, pineapple, mandarin orange
- Heart: lily of the valley, jasmine, lavender, artemisia
- Base: amberwood, moss, white musk
The opening is cool rather than sweet. Cardamom gives a refined, slightly spicy freshness, violet leaf adds a crisp green edge, and pineapple and mandarin brighten it without turning it into a tropical cocktail. The pineapple here reads as a flash of juice, not as the main theme.
The heart is where Constantine earns its clean reputation. Lily of the valley and jasmine bring a soft, fresh floral side; lavender and artemisia make it herbal and aromatic. Together they give the polished, just-washed effect the brand keeps coming back to: soapy in the good sense, closer to clean skin than to perfume-counter sweetness.
The drydown is dry and smooth. Amberwood gives a gentle woody warmth, moss keeps it slightly green and white musk makes it soft on skin. The handbook sums the character up as aromatic, green and floral, and adds its own short description: cool cardamom and violet leaf over a herbal heart of lavender and artemisia, finishing dry on moss and amberwood.
How strong is Constantine, and how long does it last?
Constantine is tagged moderate on our intensity scale, which fits the brand's own phrase "powerful without becoming loud". The Mykonos handbook gives no official longevity, sillage or projection rating for Constantine, so we do not quote a number of hours. How long any perfume lasts depends heavily on skin, climate and how much you apply; our guide to making perfume last longer covers what actually helps.
A practical starting point is two sprays on the neck or chest for the day, three for an evening outdoors. A clean, moderate scent like this rarely needs more; extra sprays mostly make the opening louder rather than making the drydown last longer. For more on dosing, see how many sprays of perfume.
When to wear Constantine
Mykonos tags Constantine for spring and summer, and for daily wear and evenings. The fresh cardamom-and-citrus opening and the herbal heart hold up well in the heat, and the soapy character makes it an easy choice for the office, travel days and warm-weather dinners. In autumn and winter, most people will want something warmer; Mykonos Conquer is the obvious cold-weather counterpart, and our Constantine vs Conquer comparison sets the two side by side.
Who Constantine suits
Constantine is unisex, and the brand is explicit that it was made for anyone. The lavender and cardamom read classic and well groomed; the lily of the valley and jasmine read soft and clean. It suits you if you:
- want a fresh everyday scent that smells considered rather than sporty;
- like the idea of a clean, soapy perfume but find pure musks too quiet;
- prefer fruit as a bright accent rather than as a sweet main note.
It is less suited to anyone looking for a sweet gourmand or a scent with maximum projection. For more clean options across the range, read our guide to clean perfumes, or browse the floral collection.
Constantine compared with similar Mykonos scents
- Mykonos Paradise shares the pineapple and mandarin but goes tropical and creamy, with coconut, frangipani and vanilla. It is stronger and sweeter; Constantine is the greener, cleaner choice. More in Constantine vs Paradise.
- Mykonos Sorrento is the brighter citrus: fizzy grapefruit through every layer, with a soft powdery orris finish. Choose Sorrento for pure sparkle, Constantine for more aromatic depth.
- Mykonos Penthouse is the other clean, soapy option in the range, built on aldehydes, a white soap accord and clean musks. It is stronger and more musky; Constantine is lighter and more herbal.
- Mykonos Untamed also plays with clean laundry, with a crisp linen accord and coconut soap, but over a praline heart. Pick Untamed if you want the clean effect with some sweetness underneath.
Layering Constantine: the official Citrus Veil combo
Mykonos pairs Constantine with Mykonos Reflection Elixir in its official Citrus Veil layering combo. The brand describes it as Constantine's clean, soapy character meeting the juicy brightness of Reflection Elixir, for a fresh, smooth citrus. We spray Reflection Elixir first and one or two sprays of Constantine over it; the full method is in our Citrus Veil layering guide.
