Rose

Mercedes-Benz Rose, released by the German brand in 2015, balances woody, floral and ambery facets equally, with gourmand, musky and citrus touches in support. It is presented as a feminine scent.

It opens with black currant and grapefruit, a tart berry note paired with a bright, slightly bitter citrus that feels fresh and lively. The heart brings rose and magnolia, the rose velvety and the magnolia creamy and lemony, set against elemi resin, with its peppery, lemon-tinged freshness, and palisander rosewood, which adds a smooth, slightly spicy woodiness. The base settles into cedar for dry structure, amber for warmth and musk for a soft, clean finish.

The mix of fresh fruit, rose and woods makes it a polished, versatile scent, suited to daytime and evening wear and comfortable from spring through autumn. It should appeal to people who like a modern rose that is woody and ambery rather than powdery or overly sweet.
