This Cologne Makes You Smell Like Someone Who Drives a Bentley

Just in case dropping $200,000 on a car wasn’t enough of a status symbol for you, Bentley announced the impending release of their new men’s fragrance called “Momentum.” The product comes from a collaboration between the renowned English car company and Nathalie Lorson, who is to fragrances what Bentley is to cars.  If you, like us, are wondering what it smells like, don’t worry. Bentley didn’t hold back in its press announcement, saying the fragrance opens with a splash of energetic bergamot and green violet, balanced by an herbaceous, aromatic sage that hints at sensuous warmth. It then somehow “gains momentum” into ambergris and cashmere wood before ending with a “burnished blend of smooth sandalwood and dusky tonka bean, in a sensuous trail of musk and moss.” That’s twice they say sensuous in a press release full of more descriptive language than most creative writing workshops, so let’s hope the scent delivers on its rather lofty promises. You’ll be able to get the fragrance in either Eau de Toilette or Eau de Parfum.
