What does Piper Leather smell like?

It opens with black pepper and coriander, then moves into carrot seed, jasmine and leather at the heart. Civet, frankincense and musk in the base add an animal, resinous warmth. A fresh, green thread runs beneath the spicy, woody leather character.

Longevity is rated good and sillage weak. Most voters pick spring and fall, and daily wear, leisure and business are the most named occasions. Just over half call it masculine, though it is a unisex scent. Venti4 Vorrei and Tom Daxon Vachetta have a close profile.
