Launched in 2020 by Zara, Steel Grey is an aromatic spicy fragrance for men that balances crisp citrus with warm, musky undertones. The top note of bergamot provides a refreshing start, while cardamom adds a subtle spiciness to the heart of the composition. The base note of musk rounds out the scent with a soft, powdery warmth, making it both modern and lasting.

Application Tips
Steel Grey is best applied sparingly. The bergamot top note fades quickly, so it's important that the musky base has a chance to develop. Two sprays are sufficient for a lasting impression that remains close to the skin.
