EDC · 1997 · mens

Diesel's Plus Plus Masculine arrived in 1997 as part of the brand's early fragrance offerings, during a period when the Italian fashion house was establishing itself beyond denim and streetwear into the broader lifestyle market.

The fragrance opens with bergamot and orange brightened by heliotrope and palm leaf, creating a fresh, slightly aromatic top. The heart is densely herbal and floral, layering cardamom and coriander with sage, jasmine, and lily of the valley for a spiced green character. The base is where the fougère structure becomes most apparent, with oak moss and vetiver providing earthy structure while anise, cinnamon, clove, and nutmeg add warmth. Sandalwood and tonka bean round out the dry-down with creamy vanilla undertones, balanced against patchouli's earthiness.

This is a versatile fougère that works well for everyday wear year-round, though it leans cooler in its aromatic-herbal profile rather than warmth-forward. It suits someone seeking a traditional barbershop sensibility with enough spice and depth to remain interesting. Better as an EDC than a powerhouse, it performs modestly on skin. The Homesteader, The Sensualist, and The Tactician may appeal to fans.

Fragrance Notesbrand verified
Top · 0–30 min
Bergamot
Bergamot
A sun-ripened Italian citrus with a brightness that goes beyond lemon, simultaneously tart, floral, and slightly spicy. It's the defining note of Earl Grey tea and the backbone of countless fresh colognes. Perfumers love it as an opener because it lifts the entire composition without overpowering what follows.
Heliotrope
Heliotrope
Powdery, sweet, and slightly almond-like, heliotrope is the quintessential 'retro' note of Victorian-era perfumery, now experiencing a fashionable revival. It smells of sugar, vanilla, and just enough floral to keep it interesting. In modern fragrances it tends to read as nostalgic, soft, and unapologetically pretty.
Orange
Orange
Palm Leaf
Palm Leaf
Heart · 30 min – 3 hrs
Birch
Birch
Tarry, smoky, and distinctly medicinal, birch tar (used in classic leather fragrances) has an almost petroleum-like quality that creates unmistakable leather accords. Birch leaf, by contrast, is clean and green. Birch tar is not for the timid: it's the note that makes old-school Russian Leather fragrances smell like what they are.
Cardamom
Cardamom
Aromatic, warm, and slightly eucalyptus-like with a spiced green freshness that is entirely its own. Cardamom is one of the most elegant spice notes in perfumery, exotic without being heavy, warm without being sweet. It appears frequently in Middle Eastern-inspired fragrances and modern masculine compositions.
Coriander
Coriander
Warm, spicy, and faintly citrusy, coriander seed smells quite different from the green herb, with a dry, woody warmth and a slight floral quality. It adds a spiced, slightly exotic character to masculine fragrances without the sharpness of pepper or the sweetness of vanilla. A supporting spice note that adds complexity.
Green Notes
Green Notes
Jasmine
Jasmine
Intoxicating, heady, and slightly animalic, jasmine is one of the few flowers that smells as rich in a bottle as it does climbing a garden wall at dusk. It has an almost fleshy, indolic quality that stops it reading as purely 'clean.' Jasmine is a workhorse in both feminine and masculine perfumery, adding depth and soul.
Lily Of The Valley
Lily Of The Valley
Crisp, green, and dewy, this spring flower smells like rain on cool grass with a clean, soap-like clarity. It's one of perfumery's most requested scents despite being nearly impossible to extract naturally, so it's almost always recreated synthetically. The result is fresh, tender, and timelessly elegant.
Sage
Sage
Earthy, slightly smoky, and herbal with a cool, clean quality that is distinctly aromatic. Sage can read as savory and culinary or as a clean, ceremonial smoke depending on how it's used. It adds a dry, confident quality to fragrances, often used in masculine compositions for its outdoor, no-fuss character.
Violet
Violet
Sweet, powdery, and faintly green, violet sits between floral and earthy in a way that feels distinctly old-world glamorous. The leaf and the flower smell quite different: the flower is sugary and delicate, while violet leaf is fresh and slightly vegetal. Together they create a note that feels both nostalgic and current.
Base · 3–12 hrs
Anise
Anise
Cinnamon
Cinnamon
Sweet, warm, and instantly comforting, cinnamon bark has a familiar warmth that slides easily into oriental and gourmand fragrances. Used sparingly it adds a pleasant warmth; used heavily it can dominate. It has a slightly sharp, peppery facet alongside its sweetness that keeps it from being purely foodie.
Clove
Clove
Intensely aromatic and medicinal with a sharp, almost numbing warmth, clove is one of perfumery's most assertive spice notes. It appears in classic oriental and masculine fragrances where its forcefulness is a feature, not a bug. Even in small amounts it announces itself clearly, adding drama and depth.
Musk
Musk
The base layer of almost every modern fragrance, a soft, warm, skin-like scent that extends longevity and bridges other notes together. Natural musk was once derived from deer (now banned); today's musks are synthetic and range from clean and soapy to dark and animalic. The right musk makes a fragrance smell like 'you.'
Nutmeg
Nutmeg
Warm, woody, and softly spiced with a slight sweetness that makes it gentler than clove or pepper. Nutmeg adds a quiet, autumnal warmth to fragrances without sharpness. It blends seamlessly into woody and oriental bases, acting more as a supporting character than a lead note.
Oak Moss
Oak Moss
Patchouli
Patchouli
Dense, earthy, and darkly sweet, patchouli is the scent of damp soil and dried herbs with an almost chocolatey richness. It polarizes people because in high concentrations it's overwhelming, but as a supporting note it adds depth and longevity that almost nothing else can match. The backbone of countless oriental and chypre fragrances.
Sandalwood
Sandalwood
Creamy, smooth, and milky with a soft, skin-like warmth that clings beautifully. True Mysore sandalwood is one of perfumery's most precious ingredients, simultaneously wood and skin, never cold or sharp. It rounds off sharp edges in any composition and makes the wearer smell subtly, irresistibly warmer.
Tonka Bean
Tonka Bean
Sweet, powdery, and almond-like with hay-like, slightly tobacco undertones, tonka bean is one of perfumery's most useful base notes. It shares coumarin with fresh hay and freshly cut grass, adding a warmth that feels nostalgic and comforting. Essential in gourmand and soft oriental fragrances.
Vetiver
Vetiver
Earthy, smoky, and complex, vetiver root is extracted from a grass native to India and has a scent that is simultaneously rooty, woody, and slightly lemony. It's one of perfumery's great base notes: tenacious, unisex, and endlessly adaptable. A fragrance built around vetiver feels grounded and deeply confident.
