Urban Green

Urban Green, released by Karl Lagerfeld in 2026, is a purely gourmand masculine fragrance whose single listed note is tonka bean. Its character rests entirely on that one warm, sweet material.

Tonka bean comes from the seed of a South American tree and is one of the most familiar materials in modern perfumery. It smells warm and sweet, somewhere between vanilla, almond and freshly cut hay, with a slightly spicy, tobacco-like nuance. On the skin it gives a soft, comforting and slightly powdery sweetness rather than a sugary one, and it tends to feel round, smooth and close to the body. Because it carries the composition on its own, the scent reads as one steady, cosy impression from start to finish.

A tonka-led scent like this suits cooler weather, relaxed evenings and everyday wear when a soft, warm fragrance is wanted. It is likely to appeal to someone who likes gentle, sweet masculine scents.
