In the center, the iconic silver Star appears ever more shiny on the glass of the window, which is tinted in a golden light brown. The same color is found on the set, as a way to convey the warm and sensual identity of this woody fragrance.For this ambery woody aromatic fragrance, French Master perfumer Olivier Cresp has concocted a refined spicy recipe… Mercedes-Benz Man Private starts on a fresh yet spicy combination of artemisia, cardamom and cypress. It then moves on to a very rich heart made of notes of lavender, labdanum resinoide and ambrox, before it fully expresses its sensuality thanks to the blend of patchouli, cashmeran and cedarwood – a drydown that perfectly epitomizes the woody signature of the fragrance.As you would expect, Mercedes-Benz Man Private is the ideal perfume for a young seductive man. He is obviously elegant and very attractive, but he also has a special attitude: with his slightly arrogant look, he draws the attention. And at the same time, his expression is truly charming…and immediately effective, so the magic happens!With his new powerful and deep fragrance, there is no doubt that he will become simply irresistible" - official press release.Available as 100ml Eau de Parfum from April 2018.
