The notes read as one whole: osmanthus brings a soft floral side, while leather and animalic notes give the scent a dark, leathery weight. Aged wood strengthens the woody and earthy side, grapefruit lets a little freshness in, and vanilla softens the edges. The accords also lean spicy and oriental. The result is a dark, woody, smoky character.
Guerlain Cuir Intense and Montale Leather Patchouli have a close profile.
