&TEAM's NICHOLAS and YUMA showed new charm in gravure. Recently, the magazine "ARENA HOMME+" published the gravure for the February 2026 issue, shot with NICHOLAS and YUMA of &TEAM. This gravure was done in collaboration with the French niche perfume house "Trudon." After a year and a half, NICHOLAS and YUMA reunited with "ARENA HOMME+" and infused the gravure with the record of their time running towards a single dream and epic, as well as the growth accumulated in the process. The two, who have been keywords of effort and growth, delicately conveyed the atmosphere and emotions of the shooting site through different fragrances. NICHOLAS wore the "Midnight Omen eau de parfum," which stands out with its woody yet spicy charm, and said, "Thanks to the fragrance, I felt refreshed and was able to enjoy the shoot more." YUMA wore the "Vixi eau de parfum," which has a soft yet warm impression, and revealed, "It's a fragrance that suits any season, and I felt comfortable throughout the shoot." In the interview that followed the gravure shoot, they candidly discussed their feelings about their Korean debut, the attitudes they value as a team, and the future they envision as artists and as individuals. NICHOLAS expressed his ambition to convey happiness to many people through diverse activities, while YUMA stated, "I want to continue growing both as an artist and as a person."
