Saturday night Diesel celebrated bravery and the launch of their new men’s fragrance, Only The Brave, in Los Angeles.  Common, the face of the new fragrance, performed an intimate live concert at the Diesel boutique on Melrose.  The GRAMMY-winning hip-hop artist’s performance, embodied the spirit of determination and perseverance.   

“I’ve always thought Diesel was a progressive, fresh brand—it has a classic feel, but pushes the envelope,” Common explains. “I wanted to partner with Diesel because that’s really what I’m about too—to be an individual and an artist, it takes both bravery and courage.”

The new fragrance, Only The Brave, captures the essence of the Diesel man in a bottle.  The scent represents the qualities of the brave, symbolized by a fist that tells several stories: facing forward, the fist evokes power and energy; upright, it stands for self-affirmation; raised, it signifies victory, success and engagement.  Embrace your inner rebel with Only The Brave, scented with powerful, provocative notes including lemon, leather, cedar wood and amber. 

 

WHAT IT COSTS: Eau de Toilette 1.7oz, $52.50; Eau de Toilette 2.5oz, $65.00; After Shave Lotion 3.4 oz, $45.00; After Shave Balm 3.4oz, $45.00; Shower Gel 6.7oz, $28.00
