Soothing and Calming

Simply benzoin and vanilla scent. Quality on a cheapie side. Not surprisingly it's quite difficult to find. Basically, it is a linear fragrance. Almost no scent development. Vanilla here is dusty and smoky with a little bit of powdery touch.
Longevity is top-notch, but the projection is closer to the skin.

Pure luxury for a cheap price

The Mercedes-Benz Club Black was an absolute lucky buy. A few weeks ago I came across the Birkholz Dark Amber fragrance and fell in love with it straight away. I couldn't stop smelling the scent on my arm throughout the day and had to add it to my collection. Unfortunately, the Dark Amber is incredibly expensive... Through the community I found out that the Mercedes-Benz Club Black is supposed to smell similar and I bought the 100ml bottle blind for only 40€.

In short, it was the best blind buy of my life!

When I first smelled that fragrance I immediately thought it was the Dark Amber!

Here you also get this light freshness from the bergamot at the start in the top note. The heart note contains the beautiful, soft jasmine same as in Dark Amber. However, the masterpiece of this fragrance lies in the base note. It contains one of the most beautiful vanilla scents I have ever smelled. Seductive but not overpowering. I can only recommend this fragrance to every vanilla lover, especially for such a low price.

Yes, it really is THAT good

Ah, Club Black. The supposed bargain-basement wunderkind, praises sung by a thousand influencers. A hidden gem, they say. Actually really very good, they say.

Turns out, they weren't wrong. This stuff is terrific.

Let's get the bad stuff out of the way first: I hate the bottle. It's gaudy, chintzy, and silly. I know this sounds snobbish, but it looks awful sitting with the rest of my collection. The aesthetics alone turned me off from this one for so long. If it was a classier-looking bottle with the logo, I'd be fine with it, but don't give me a shiny plastic fingerprint-magnet obelisk and try to tell me it's elegant. It just isn't. (It claws a point back for a surprisingly decent atomizer, at least.)

But we're here for the juice, and the juice delivers. As others before me have pointed out, you're not going to get much development out of this. From first spray to final whiff, it pretty much is what it is.

And what it is, is a dark, rich, sumptuous, intoxicating vanilla, made captivating by the lightest touches of accenting grace notes. It's a little woody, a tad spicy, a fractional bit flowery, a smidge powdery, and the teensiest bit smoky. None of these other notes ever competes - the vanilla is the megastar here - but they do keep it just dynamic enough to avoid ever being boring (to my nose and tastes, anyway).

The vanilla itself is glorious. It's dense without being cloying; sweet without being sugary. Vanilla is one of my favorite notes, and this ranks up there with the heavy hitters.

Add all of that to the absolutely respectable 8+ hour longevity (although this does sit close to the skin), and at the price point it sells at, and suddenly all of that online-influencer praise makes perfect sense.

Yup: it really is that good.

Very nice and lasts all day

I highly recommend this (My batch code is 9213) and the price from discounters is very good.

I love this scent and it lasts and lasts - easily a full work day. You'll smell this on clothes for days.

The sillage and projection are good though not overpowering.
I smell vanilla and amber that is slightly more on the males side of unisex.

One of my best buys and will probably get a backup bottle as this seems to be getting harder to find.
