What does Royal Leather smell like?

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, with spring well behind. It leans towards night outs and evenings, and more than half of voters read its character as masculine, with some calling it classic.

It opens on a spicy start of pink pepper, ginger and saffron. In the heart, leather, iris and dried fruits build a sweet, earthy body. Cedarwood, sandalwood and amber leave a warm, woody base. Yves Saint Laurent Noble Leather and Davidoff Horizon Extreme have a close profile.
