Although leather has been getting a bit boring to me lately, here I finally find one different enough to be worth it. At its core lies resinous and woody leather with a smoky touch, yet without reaching that intense burnt-oil point that’s trendy and mutes everything else. Here, it’s a soft leather that balances well with everything. It reminds me of the leather in Tom Ford’s Tuscan Leather or Francesca Bianchi’s Black Night. The spices, and especially the iris, round out the fragrance, similar to Memo Paris’s Irish Leather but with its own character thanks to the anise, which is the star of the opening. Performance is well above average and the price is incredible for these times.

Looking at the composition, I knew I wouldn’t like it. The anise and the way the spices are presented were going to overshadow everything else. There’s much more to it, but I’m stuck with this part and don’t enjoy it. Darkbeat still seems like an incredible perfumer, but it’s impossible for me to like everything she creates.

In the opening, Spice Leather is a bomb of leather, cinnamon, iris, and cloves. As it dries down, you appreciate a very fine, clean leather with lots of dusty iris.

This is the ‘interlude’ of Darkbeat. It doesn’t resemble it, but it does recall it. On my nose, it has brought back memories of the first time I smelled Interlude, or something from Francesca Bianchi. It’s not Interlude, but it brings sensations of Amouage or Bianchi. If it weren’t Spanish, we’d be worshipping it… and that’s how it is.
