London Icon Racing

Dunhill London Icon Racing eau de parfum 50 mL is a woody-aromatic men's fragrance launched in 2017. It opens bright with crisp grapefruit and spicy cardamom, giving a fresh lift that sharpens your presence. Lavender and orange blossom add a powdery, floral softness, and a warm vetiver and guaiac-wood base grounds the scent so you feel composed and confident throughout the day.

Think of it like a winter morning drive: citrus and spice cut through the cold, crisp, and invigorating air, and they wake you up. The scent balances aromatic freshness with a warm, slightly musky finish, which helps you move from meetings to dinner with ease. Created by perfumer Laurent Le Guernec, its Eau de Parfum concentration delivers richer projection and a steadier trail for daytime winter wear.

2. Apply to dry skin after dressing for subtle projection.
3. Reapply sparingly if needed; a little goes a long way.

Pro Tips

• Max spice: Layer lightly over a neutral moisturizer to soften sillage.
• Day shift: Best for daytime winter wear, but it also works well in the evenings.

Who It's For

For the modern man who likes crisp freshness and warm woods. The aromatic, spicy profile keeps you approachable while boosting confidence in cooler weather.

Quick FAQ

• How long does it last? As an EDP, it tends to offer longer presence; its warm base helps it linger for several hours.
• Can I layer it? Yes. Light, creamy, or unscented moisturizers smooth the dry-down and make the woods feel cozier.
• Any sensitivity tips? If you have sensitive skin, test one spray on your inner wrist first; the citrus-spice opening is lively but short-lived.
