Jay’s fragrance came as a collaboration with Ilias Ermenidis, of the world’s second-biggest perfume company, Firmenich.
In the press release, Jay Z’s eau de toilette is described as “a layered blend of yellow ginger, white cardamom and grapefruit with a hint of blueberry.” There’s also a “refined infusion of violet leaf, cypress, lavender and luxurious vetiver with a thread of pink pepper gives a tailored, modern signature” and “a rich note crafted with golden amber, patchouli, teak and bourbon vanilla give a final shot of gilded sensuality.”
