Launched in 2012 by Mercedes-Benz, this fragrance is a Woody Spicy composition crafted by perfumer Olivier Cresp. The scent opens with a bright citrus blend of Amalfi lemon and bergamot, immediately bringing a fresh, aromatic energy to the forefront. As it evolves, the heart introduces violet and pepper, creating an intriguing contrast between floral sweetness and spicy warmth. The base notes of vetiver, Virginia cedar, and patchouli ground the composition in earthy, woody depth, making this fragrance both dynamic and enduring.

Application Tips
This fragrance has a strong citrus opening that fades within an hour. Apply it just before leaving home or starting a meeting to ensure the woody base notes are prominent throughout the day. It reads better close to skin than across a room, so aim for pulse points rather than heavy spritzes.
