Returning to the designer’s childhood roots in Germany, the Karl Lagerfeld Hamburg Eau de Toilette is a powerful, crystalline fragrance inspired by the majestic Alster River.

The scent opens with a revitalising elixir of mandarin, mint and aquatic nuances, illustrating the freshness of the winds and the rivers. A floral bouquet of lavender and freesia uplift the aroma, wrapped in rich blonde wood. Creating a captivating scent trail, the fragrance nestles into a bed of moss and delicate musks.

Hold the fragrance 5 inches away and spray your skin, focusing on pulse points. Alternatively, spray generously in front of you and walk through for a full coverage. Don’t rub the fragrance in, as it will affect the trail.
