Leather & Oud
Fragrance notes
Character
Bitter orange hits first, bright and sharp against the saffron. The citrus is quick and does not linger.
Leather takes over with a heavy hand. Smoke rises through it, dry and steady, and incense adds a resinous weight that feels grounded. The oud in the base is deep and woody, pushing the heart notes further into dark territory. There is an animalic edge that keeps the composition from feeling polished. The scent stays near the skin even as the leather and oud gain strength, and it holds its shape for a reasonable span before the notes begin to soften.
The drydown is where the oud truly settles. It mixes with the remaining leather and smoke to create a warm, amber-like blanket. The incense continues to hum in the background, giving the wood a slightly rough texture. This part of the wear feels intimate, as the scent does not project outward but rather wraps closely around the person wearing it.
A walk through a cool evening with a jacket collar turned up suits this fragrance. The leather and oud feel at home against that kind of air. It pairs well with wool and dark fabrics, fitting into a mood that is quiet but textured
