The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2022, Speed Legends Le Mans Classic by Ex Nihilo is a Woody Aromatic fragrance for men crafted by perfumer Jordi Fernández. The composition begins with the brightness of bergamot and black currant, creating an energetic freshness that quickly gives way to the earthy warmth of amberwood and vetiver. Sage adds a subtle herbal note, while tonka bean brings a soft sweetness that ties it all together.
Ex Nihilo’s Parisian roots are evident in this scent, blending avant-garde creativity with refined elegance. Speed Legends Le Mans Classic captures the spirit of classic racing, where energy and power meet understated sophistication.
Apply one to two sprays for a balanced experience. The fresh citrus notes open quickly but fade within an hour, while the woody base carries through the day. Best suited for daytime wear when the scent can evolve naturally.
