MV Agusta

Oh. My. To me this is a piece of art, a must have in my collection, and I'm squeezing up to the last drop of this sample I have. The MotoGP is hot rubber sticking to the asphalt underneath, supporting a stunning dance of precision machines on top. Xerjoff MV Agusta is the darkness of leather, patchouli and incense giving power underneath an elegant layer of flowers and cloves. As a 2 wheel lover, I am seriously attracted to the legacy of MV Agusta in the motorcycle world: Power combined with class, a beating engine and precision engineering. Seducing machines that project class wherever they go by, and Xerjoff captured this perfectly, making you feel like the king of the room. I swear I don't want to dress up anymore without wearing this (it instantly dethroned Black orchid as my suit scent). I don't get why some comments below talk about cars, since this perfume is inspired from MotoGP, maybe tricked by the word motorsports? Performance and projection are out of this world, which turns this tiny 50ml bottle into a 100ml equivalent. It will last for years. Sadly, as it happens with MV Agusta motorcycles, the pricetag here is quite high, but I'm excited to wait for the first chance I have to go full bottle, because this will be my wedding scent. Edit: This bottle went from 230€ to 275€ from one day to another? I really want this but they're making it a tougher decision

If sex was a scent, this is what it would smell like! Imagine a cool evening after a warm summer day. You are in a cozy apartment in downton, sitting in a dark and moody room with old timber floors. The window is half-open and a cool breeze coming through the dancing curtains. You're sitting in a worn-out leather armchair made of cedar wood. She is wearing a sexy leather lingerie, sitting on top of you, sipping from a glass of rum & passing it to you from her mouth. She spills it on her leather lingerie & the couch. A few drops make their way to the old timber floors. You are tipsy, your hearts are racing & blood is rushing through your veins. She goes down to kiss & lick you all over your neck & chest. The smell of the cognac-doused leather & wet cedar wood mixes with her make up powder & luxurious lipstick and her spit drying on your skin. The warmth of your bodies rubbing together & clean sweat intensifies the scents. The cool breeze brings in the scent of the nearby bergamot trees & the bouquet of iris flowers you put next to the window for her. The blow of the wind blends all the scents into a beautiful concoction & brings it up to your nose. That's the smell of MV Augusta. This is an amazing creation, even by Xerjoff's high standards. I have 13 fragrances from this house and I'd easily put MV Austa on my top 3.

I requested a sample of this fragrance from Xerjoff with purchase. I wanted to see if my boyfriend , who is a huge "car guy", would love it. When he tried it he said it was too feminine for him. What? This? No way! It's supposed to smell like a car!... I thought... So I tried it.... And yes, it's supple leather, powdery iris, touch of incense and honey like sweetness... Heaven... For me! It went straight to the top of my "Birthday wish list"... I think Xerjoff did a great job tricking our minds to look for a car smell by describing Agusta as fragrance that pays tribute to the world of motorsport and racing and putting it in an awesome carbon-fiber-like bottle... I think that if the bottle was pink and the name of it was like... oh I don't know... Paulina, we all would smell expensive, leather bag, filled with powder, you know, that Guerlain type, iris scented one... I am not questioning how people experience this fragrance, what I am trying to say is: Ladies! Do not shy away from Agusta! Give it a try! It's elegant, soft, sweet, leathery, unisex, leaning feminine. To me it's an instant classic, along with Pikovaya Dama, Richwood and Irisss... But at the same time, if someone told me that I smell like a brand new Lamborghini I wouldn't be offended... :) Love it!!!

This beautiful Carbon black outer shell bottle with the MV logo on it is the new Xerjoff tribute to their partnership in the MotoGP season for the second year running. A unique creation that evokes the world of motorsport and racing on circuits all over the world. The fragrance begins with a bright, effervescent Calabrian Bergamot mixed with a subtle cloves and a surprising rubber note combined with a beautiful airy and light incense. Then, the flowery notes of Iris and Ylang-Ylang came to play to give a sweet and buttery facette to the fragrance. The base notes are dominated by a luxury car Leather or Suede combined with musk, Tonka bean and Labdanum. A great buttery flowery non animalic leather fragrance. The blending is really well done as Xerjoff usually do and to me they created another beautiful, elegant and unique fragrance that will not leave you indifferent if you are a a true leather fan and if you like fragrances like Pikovaya Dama, 17/17 Irisss or Cuir de Russie by Chanel. A great manly scent to wear well dressed on a date preferably on fresh nights of Winter. A winner in my book. Good job!

I tried this in the summer and did not really care much about it, but now in the winter this fragrance is best to wear – the opening is not my favorite part of the smell – the bergamot combined with the cloves makes it almost medicinal, and if I would to judge this fragrance only on its opening, my rating would be low – but the magic starts with the dry down, the leather accord starts to play combined with a soft touch of florals ( ylang ylang - I don't get much Iris to be honest - maybe it's a different kind of Iris, not the one so prominent these days in Dior, Valentino, Givenchy and Narciso Rodriguez ) there is a certain sweetness in the perfume, this could be from the labdanum combined with the patchouli - almost of hint of petrol – the incense is not prominent ( not to my nose ) it smells kind of strangely unique, a little sexy but this is personally - nothing in my broad collection smells like this and I am still guessing if this is mass appealing or not
