Bang is a woody fragrance from Marc Jacobs, composed by Yann Vasnier and Ann Gottlieb and released in 2010. Wood leads, with lighter spicy, resinous and amber touches.

Pepperwood and pink pepper open with a dry, sharp and sparkling spice, which gives the scent its main signature. The heart is built on woodsy notes, smooth and dry. In the base, elemi resin brings a resinous, lemony freshness, benzoin a soft, sweet balsam, patchouli an earthy depth, and vetiver a dry, slightly smoky character.

About half of wearers find its longevity moderate, and some call it very weak, with sillage moderate or intimate. It is voted mostly for autumn and worn day and night. This masculine scent suits casual wear and cooler days, and someone who likes a peppery, dry woody scent that stays fairly close to the skin.

Bang — for men fragrance by Marc Jacobs (released 2010). Top notes: Pink Pepper, Pepperwood™. Heart notes: Woodsy Notes. Base notes: Vetyver, Elemi resin, Benzoin, oak moss, Patchouli. — Parfica open fragrance database
