Drake’s Summer Mink blends rich amber woods with bright Italian citrus, clary sage and petitgrain at the top, a heart of jasmine sambac and rose oil spices, and a base of vetiver, ambrofix and creamy musk.
Senior Perfumer Michael Carby of Givaudan, who helped craft the scent, explained, “Summer Mink was inspired by a yin yang principle of fusing warm, creamy base notes with cold spices and sparkling citruses” and added, “The ingredient composition was uniquely crafted to reflect a multinational culture with aspirations toward a Better World.”
The bottle’s design mirrors the fragrance’s philosophy, featuring a sleek navy sphere perched atop a sharp, rectangular base, all wrapped in Better World Fragrance House’s signature midnight blue.
Summer Mink is available now in a 3.4 oz Eau de Parfum spray for $148 on Better World Fragrance House’s website. An exclusive online release at Ulta is scheduled for May 11, 2025.
Drake fans and perfume lovers can buy Summer Mink nationwide starting May 12, 2025.
