Description

Mercedes-Benz Club Black Eau de Parfum (EDP): Resinous Vanilla with a Modern Amber Glow

The EDP (2025) revives the cult-favorite Club Black DNA (EDT, 2017) with a richer, resin-forward profile. It opens with Calabrian bergamot and elemi, moves through a plush heart of vanilla–jasmine–musk, and dries down to myrrh, amberwood, and Ambrox Super—more textured and incense-tinged than the vanilla-benzoin focus of the original EDT.

Fragrance Notes

Top: Calabrian Bergamot, Elemi — zesty citrus over a lightly balsamic, sparkling resin. Fragrantica
Heart: Vanilla, Jasmine, Musk — creamy-sensual core with a soft floral sheen. Fragrantica
Base: Myrrh, Amberwood, Ambrox Super — smoky-resinous warmth and radiant, modern woods. Fragrantica

EDP vs. EDT: The 2017 EDT lists bergamot; incense + jasmine; and a base of vanilla, benzoin, woods, Ambroxan—sweeter/amber-vanilla and less overtly resinous than the 2025 EDP. Fragrantica+1

Who Is It For?

Fans of amber-vanilla with a resinous twist. It reads dress-casual to dressy and leans masculine-marketed but wears comfortably unisex if you like incensey vanillas. Parfumo

When to Wear

Best in autumn/winter and evenings year-round—the myrrh/amberwood base shines in cool air and night settings. Parfumo
