Bentley has extended its line of fragrances for men with the launch of a third scent called Bentley Momentum.
Joining Bentley for Men and Bentley Infinite, the luxury automotive brand’s third pillar matches an assertive, bracingly masculine fragrance with a sleek, modern presentation.
In this new, forceful composition, renowned master perfumer Nathalie Lorson creates excitement by contrasting aromatic freshness with potent, vibrant woods.
As the fragrance opens, a splash of aquatic notes energises sparkling bergamot and cool green violet. In contrast to this refreshing style, clarysage adds herbaceous, aromatic accents, hinting at the sensuous warmth that unfolds in the heart notes.
Gaining momentum, the scent segues into a strikingly modern accord of ambergris and cashmere wood, evoking clean, sun-warmed skin and polished wood. The dry-down reveals a deep, burnished blend of smooth sandalwood and dusky tonka bean, in a sensuous trail of musk and moss.
The new fragrance comes in two intensities: Bentley Momentum eau de toilette and Bentley Momentum Intense eau de parfum. Along with a higher concentration, Bentley Momentum Intense builds up the intensity with new ingredients that heighten the contrast between top and base notes. Elemi, a resin with green, zesty and peppery facets, spices up a cool aromatic accord of lavender and geranium. Cutting-edge woody ambery notes boost the vibrancy of the blend.
The bottle’s design is inspired by New York’s soaring, vertical skyline. Tall, rectangular and faceted, it is made of luxuriously heavy glass. The front and back are covered with silver brushed- metal plates, printed with the iconic “Flying B” Bentley logo and the name of the fragrance. Light silver for Bentley Momentum, these plates take on a darker shade of silver for Bentley Momentum Intense.
In contrast with the bottle’s bold geometric lines, the metal stopper is rounded, and entirely embossed with Bentley’s signature knurling. The knurling motif also adorns the top and sides of the box, presented in a light grey with metallic silver sides and top for Bentley Momentum, and in dark grey with a dark silver top and sides for Bentley Momentum Intense.
The fragrance is also available as a shower gel.
