What does Royal Leather Mayfair smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are rated strong. Most voters pick autumn and winter, with night outs and evenings leading the occasions. It leans masculine in character.

It opens with black tea and hawthorn, and heliotrope meets leather in the heart. Laotian oud and Indonesian patchouli sit at the base. The accords run sweet and spicy over a woody, resinous, earthy and smoky foundation. Carner Cuirs and Olfactive Studio Woody Mood have a close profile.
