Signature pair: Grapefruit and Ginger

In plain words

The main accords of Mercedes Benz Cologne are citrus and fresh spicy. It opens with Grapefruit and Mandarin Orange, reveals Lemon Verbena and Ginger at its heart, and dries down to Musk and Vetiver. It lasts a moderate time and projects moderately; people reach for it in summer, mostly by day.
