What does Hypnotic Leather / Strange Black Oud smell like?

It opens with bergamot and resins, then leather, iris and woody notes take over in the heart. Oud, musk and vanilla sit in the base and soften it. The overall feel is spicy, earthy and leathery, with a fresh accord adding a little lift at the top.

Voters rate its longevity as strong and its sillage as good. It has been discontinued. There are no season or occasion votes, so little can be said on that front. It should appeal to people who like leather and oud. Perfumes with a close profile include The Dua Brand Leather of the Complex and Olibere Leather Attraction.
