In the world of men’s fragrances, those with leather notes are perhaps the most sophisticated. An embodiment of elegance and allure, they conjure images of a well-dressed man who looks stylish regardless what he wears: be it an elegant business suit, a casual shirt with slacker pants or a motorcycle jacket with the matching boots. To complete this chic look, he would just need a few drops of the refined perfume like The Parfums de Marly Godolphin. This fragrance is excellent to wear for any man who wants to make a lasting impression, no matter where he goes.

I bought this as a gift for my husband without trying it first. Based on the reviews, I can't say that I didn't like the scent, but it seems a bit strange to me, maybe it's the leather note. Overall, I'm not overly thrilled with it, but let it be.
The fragrance starts with a leather scent, sweet, like the smell of a horse (plus probably the herbs mentioned in the pyramid), a hint of leather bitterness, and a short but noticeable trail. There is a presence of paint and lacquer, which is more like the smell of a new leather bag. Then, a scent of dry vanilla tobacco appears in the base, along with the aforementioned leather. The longevity is no more than 6 hours. It is essential to test it before purchasing, and not just once. I am satisfied with the purchase, the fragrance is suitable for spring or autumn, most likely. At +20 degrees Celsius, the scent is very nice. And a completely unbiased person told me that it smells like BLACKCURRANT!
