Leather
“Smoky, animalic tanning note — rich, warm, and darkly smooth.”
Leather in perfumery smells rich, smoky and animalic, like a well-worn jacket, luxury handbag or vintage car interior, with facets ranging from soft suede to rugged birch tar. It is built from birch, castoreum, tobacco and synthetic leather molecules. In perfumery it defines an entire family of bold, confident scents. In Indian winters, leather fragrances are magnificent, their smoky warmth unfolding luxuriously in cool air. In summer they are strictly for evenings. The scent of confidence and adventure.
