Meet MCM’s charming leather-animal fragrances
A playful nod to pets, nature, and unforgettable scent adventures
When it comes to accessories that stick in your memory, MCM’s monogrammed leather goods are unforgettable. They’ve always carried a personality of their own—much like our beloved pets, who leave an imprint on our lives. Now, MCM takes that same spirit into a whole new adventure: fragrance.
As Sung-Joo Kim, Chief Visionary & Sustainability Officer, and Chairperson of MCM Group points out, “Our new MCM fragrance collection celebrates individual uniqueness and the sartorial spirit of the Digital Nomad, inspired by our heritage. Each scent brings joy, love, and a reminder of the beauty that pets, and nature’s wonders bring to our lives.”
Inspired by the brand’s iconic leather animals, the collection features six eau de parfums—each with its own unique charm. With golden accents and sustainably sourced ingredients like cardamom, lemon, cedarwood, and even carrot seeds (repurposed from other industries), these scents are playful companions in fragrance form. Here’s the lineup:
Mighty Bear – amber woody floral, inspired by strength and resilience
This may be the strongest fragrance of the bunch, matching the power of the mighty bear. It opens with bergamot’s bright zest, followed by the velvet warmth of vanilla and the earthy embrace of sandalwood. A scent that wears its strength with poise.
