An oriental cousin of Ombre Leather with top-tier quality; the leather is slightly tamed with a very subtle touch of oud. I wouldn’t wear it myself, but it’s an interesting proposition and superior to Tom Ford.
Paramour smells comfortable, but contrary to expectations, on skin it is more fruity and sweet than leathery. The suede isn’t the star; it sits beneath an acidic raspberry at the start and blends with a sweet vanilla note as it dries. It projects a metre for the first hour, very fruity, before dropping to skin level over its 6–7 hour lifespan. It’s versatile for informal or semi-formal occasions, ideal for spring and autumn. A rare leather (not leather-focused) scent in a niche house, so try it on skin to see if it suits you or if there are other leather and raspberry options you prefer.
What a surprise! It is one of the most delicate scents I have smelled in years. Worn on my wrist, I don’t understand the comparisons with Tuscan Leather: Tom Ford’s is powerful, rough, and dry, whereas this is creamy, delicate, and subtle. It reminds me more of Naxos but with a clear leaning towards red fruits. In the base, a suede with vanilla gives it a velvety touch. In the heart, the floral notes make it elegant, calm, and slightly sensual. For me, it is more feminine, though it could be a great companion on a date if you know the other person’s tastes. I see it as the perfect gift for someone affectionate, tender, and amiable.
It has been a real surprise for me, one of the most delicate scents I have smelled in recent years. I wear it on my wrist and still don’t quite understand the comparisons with Tuscan Leather. Tom Ford’s is powerful, rough, and dry. This fragrance, by contrast, is creamy, delicate, and subtle. It reminds me more of Naxos in terms of aroma but with a clear leaning towards red fruits. In the base, there is a suede accompanied by vanilla that gives it an almost velvety character. In the heart, throughout the life of the scent, alongside this fruity part, are floral notes that make it elegant, calm, and a touch sensual. For me, it is more feminine than masculine, though on a date it could be a great companion if you know the other person’s tastes reasonably well. I see it as the perfect gift for that person in your life who is always affectionate, tender, and amiable.
🔎👃🏻 FIRST IMPRESSION 👃🏻🔍 Well, just applied… it smells great. It’s that leather plus raspberry combo we already know, but it has its own style and doesn’t stay the same as La Yuqawam or others that, while smelling nice, are almost copies of Tuscan Leather. It shares some notes with the Tom Ford one, but as you get to know it, they are very distinct; at first glance, I would say it is at most 20% Tuscan, but I notice base nuances of other things. For example, it has a certain moderate sweet touch heading towards Widian London, more ‘wearable’, more ‘modern’ if you like. In turn, in the base, I perceive something rough (apart from a very balanced suede, note: not leather) that also sounds like another composition, in this case Memo’s African Leather, and also a smoky, even earthy tone, similar to Penhaligon’s Halfeti Leather. It is different, playing in that same league, but personally and at first glance, focusing solely on its opening scent, it creates its own style, which, by the way, I like more than Tuscan or its ‘imitations’ (surely because I already find it a bit boring). Go ahead and try it if you like this style. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ☆ ☆
🔎👃🏻 CLEAR SCENT: What a good one! It’s that leather plus raspberry combo we all know, but with its own personality and doesn’t just copy La Yuqawam or others that, while smelling nice, are almost clones of Tuscan Leather. Yes, it shares some notes with Tom Ford, but once you try it, they are worlds apart; here I would say it is at most 20% Tuscan, with base nuances that remind me of others. It has a moderate sweet touch pointing towards Widian London, more wearable and modern. In the base, I notice something rough (note: it is balanced suede, not pure leather) that sounds like Memo’s African Leather, and a smoky, earthy tone similar to Penhaligon’s Halfeti Leather. It is different, playing in the same league, but personally, focusing only on the opening, it creates its own style and I like it more than Tuscan or its imitations, surely because I already find that fragrance a bit boring. Try it if you like this style. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ☆ ☆
