Diesel Only The Brave Eau de Toilette 35ml is a confident oriental woody for men, launched in 2009 and instantly recognisable in its iconic clenched-fist-shaped flacon. Created by master perfumers Alienor Massenet, Olivier Polge and Pierre Wargnye, the composition opens on a vivid Amalfi lemon and mandarin orange accord, develops a softly aromatic heart of violet, Virginia cedar and coriander, and dries down on a refined base of amber, leather, benzoin, French labdanum and styrax.

Who it's for
Only The Brave suits men who want a confident, modern signature with a fresh-citrus opening and a warm leather-amber drydown. The composition reads as bold and grown-up, equally at home in office wear, casual settings and evenings out. Best in autumn and winter for the warm leather-amber base, although the bright top notes keep it wearable in cooler spring days too.
How to use
- Spray onto pulse points — the base of the neck, behind the ears and on the wrists — from around 15 cm away.
- One spray on the chest under a shirt extends the trail through the day.
- For evening wear, add a single mist to a jacket lapel rather than rubbing into the skin.
