Ombre Leather Parfum

I like this a lot, the opening is kinda rough and rustic with rich tobacco, warm oiled leather, and beautiful aromatic woods. It was a bit short lived for me as it was my favorite part. It actually mellows pretty quick and starts to show more wood, really lovely aromatic woods that reminded me of a little hand carved trinket box. Maybe slightly camphorous, still laced with plenty of smooth tobacco and leather. A couple hours in it turns to a much more smooth and rich ambery scent. Original notes are still there but more faint. It’s got a pleasant clean vibe in the background all through the wear, it’s persistent, and while an amber base makes sense here, I wasn’t sold about it and would have preferred some thing a little more dry and wooden personally. Still really well made, smells like a relic, or a collection of old man stuffs in a box together.

This one is special, You are greeted with a full blast of this mysterious and somehow black addictive leather note that is the start of the show, there is some slight florals in the background coming from that violet leaf and jasmine flowers, also the Cedarwood in the background gives it a nice base. This fragrance is for the sophisticated man, somebody professional with great confidence but also a badass biker with a 8 year old leather jacket and sunglasses can pull this one off too. NOT blind buy at all, test it to see if you like it first. This fragrance is ONLY for ppl that really like leather smell. Also this is only suited for cold weather and mostly nights.

This Hispanic lady told me I smell good and it seemed like she genuinely meant it, which is strange because I usually get fragrance reactions all the time but this reaction definitely seemed genuine and heartfelt, she asked what it was and kept smelling me and got as close as my neck/chest area , I was just kinda embarrassed because Im a younger gentleman and she was in her 30s-40s so it was a little awkward, but I told her what it was and she said she was gonna get it for her husband , honestly that made my day and now I’ll always think about that interaction while wearing this fragrance !

When I first bought Ombre leather, I had purchased a travel sprayer of the EDP and I got another complimentary sample of the Parfum. Upon comparing the two fragrances, I found that the EDP was more in line with my preferences and subsequently purchased a full bottle. I perceived a significant overlap between the fragrances, and I felt it was too Redundant to own both of them. However, since then, the Parfum has remained on my mind. Of course, here we are, and I have a full bottle of both the Parfum and the EDP, so I thought I’ll write a review on the Parfum as well.

Original Ombre Leather smells like when you enter a leather shoe shop. This smells like you wearing a leather jacket with flowers(in this case violet and jasmine) embedded inside the jacket. I can't smell it after just 5 minutes on myself, it really overpowers the nose but if someone next to me sprays it, i get the waves of the perfume every 20 minutes, it really stays. It smells more of flower than leather and wood imo, but leather is always there. better version than original.
