About this fragrance

Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.

Launched in 2005, Zegna by Ermenegildo Zegna is a woody spicy composition that opens with a brisk blend of Sicilian bergamot and rosemary, creating a fresh, aromatic lift. The heart introduces white pepper and nutmeg, their piquant warmth softened by a powdery iris note. As it settles, the base reveals cashmere wood, oakmoss, musk, and patchouli, lending an earthy, musky depth that lingers with understated elegance.

This fragrance suits collectors who appreciate a classic, versatile masculine scent that balances freshness with woody richness. Its fresh spicy character (100%) and woody (70%) and aromatic (66%) facets make it ideal for daily wear, from office to evening. The citrus (59%) and earthy (49%) undertones add complexity without overpowering. A refined choice for those who value a well-structured, timeless composition.
