Mercedes-Benz Mercedes Benz Club Black is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2025, created by Fabrice Pellegrin, Olivier Cresp, and Hamid Merati-Kashani. Mercedes Benz Club Black opens with Bergamot and Elemi, settles into a heart of Musk, Jasmine, and Vanilla, and dries down to a base of Ambroxan, Myrrh, and Amberwood. Mercedes-Benz's Mercedes Benz Club Black carries a Favourite verdict, a musk-led wear.

This one's a bit of a head-scratcher. Despite the name, many reckon it's a step backwards from the original EDT, feeling watered down and less distinct. If you're after a pure vanilla hit, it might do the trick, but don't expect a groundbreaking experience or a richer version of the classic.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

With its warm, vanilla-heavy profile and decent longevity, this is best suited for cooler weather and intimate settings like a date night or formal evening. Its sweetness and noticeable scent trail would be too much for a typical office environment or a sporty activity.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Mercedes Benz Club Black EDP opens with a subtle zest of bergamot, quickly joined by the resinous, slightly smoky hint of elemi. The heart blooms into a creamy vanilla, softened by a whisper of jasmine and the clean presence of musk. It settles into a warm, inviting base of amberwood, given depth by the balmy darkness of myrrh and the sweet, enveloping embrace of ambrox super, creating a smooth, vanilla-dominant dry-down.
