What does Mahon Leather smell like?

Citrus notes and jasmine open it brightly, while leather, iris, vetiver and saffron lead the heart. In the base, sandalwood, patchouli, tonka bean and amber sweeten it and carry it towards a resinous, earthy warmth.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and very few choose summer; it leans towards evening and nights out, though daily and business wear also get votes. Most voters find it masculine, and some call it classic. Motörhead Motörhead Man and Simimi Esprit de Candela have a close profile.
