Vibrant, green, and effortlessly modern, 212 MEN NYC Eau de Toilette captures the electricity of New York with crisp citrus leaves and freshly cut grass over a cool floral heart, then settles into smooth woods and clean musk. It wears like a polished white shirt in summer, bright and spicy at the start, cool and urban through the heart, and quietly sensual by the dry down, an everyday signature with unmistakable city attitude.

Story and Positioning
Born inside the 212 universe that celebrates youthful energy and the pulse of New York, 212 MEN NYC frames a fresh spicy green style around a distinctive gardenia note for a refined yet lively character. It sits alongside the 212 pillars as the clean metropolitan choice for day to night wear, often compared for its airy green musk vibe to scents like Creed Silver Mountain Water while remaining unmistakably its own with that grassy cut nuance and smooth sandalwood finish.
Bottle and Design
A sleek cylindrical bottle with a metallic finish reflects Manhattan’s streamlined architecture, featuring a satisfying magnetic cap and bold 212 branding for a modern, tactile presence on the shelf.
