An old school vintage fougere with velvety pounce and coumarine attitude.
All about this fragrance
Vibe check
This is the scent of someone who enters a room already composed: crisp, green and slightly aloof, with a dry aromatic trail that reads as tailored rather than loud. It suits close conversation, sharp lines and a calm, self-possessed presence.
How to wear
Best in mild weather, especially spring through early autumn, when its bergamot, galbanum and moss can stay bright without feeling heavy. Apply lightly to keep the transparent structure intact; a few sprays are enough for a clean, measured sillage that stays close to the skin with a dry, green wake.
Who it’s for
For wearers who like classic fougère structure, green aromatics and a restrained, vintage feel. It will appeal to those who prefer polished, slightly dry fragrances with citrus lift, peppery nuance and mossy depth over sweetness or overt freshness.
Release year
2016
The nose
Karine Vinchon Spehner is a French perfumer known for compositions that balance clarity with texture, often moving between crisp aromatics, polished woods and a measured sensuality. Her work tends to feel disciplined rather than decorative, with a strong sense of structure and a refined, contemporary finish. For Time to Target, she shapes an old-school fougère idea into something more transparent and modern, keeping the green bite of galbanum and moss while adding a spicy lift. The result reflects her ability to make classic materials feel controlled, elegant and distinctly wearable.
Collaborators
Helen and Serge Mint shaped the brand vision and worked with Karine Vinchon on the fragrance’s creative direction, positioning it within M.INT’s exclusive, style-driven collection. The collaboration frames the perfume as a polished unisex fougère with a refined masculine lean rather than a simple commercial release.
MINT’s story
M.INT builds its identity around exclusivity, elegance, self-control and confidence, with fragrances designed as distinctive signatures rather than broad crowd-pleasers. The house favors stylized compositions with a clear point of view, often balancing sophistication with a sense of power and sensual restraint.
Time to Target (Discontinued)’s concept
Time to Target was created for M.INT as part of the house’s 2016 launch collection, with Karine Vinchon developing it as a scent for connoisseurs of exclusivity. The idea is an old-school fougère reworked through a fresher, more transparent lens, using green and aromatic materials to suggest control, polish and a quietly seductive edge.
Extra info
Time to Target is part of M.INT’s first fragrance collection, launched in 2016. It is an Eau de Parfum and remains in production, with the brand presenting it as a unisex scent despite its masculine-leaning fougère character.
