Marrakech Imperial Arabian Leather is a sweet, spicy and smoky unisex fragrance in which saffron, leather and brown sugar sit side by side.

Skunky's take: Opens sweet, so if sugar is not your thing, think twice.

What does Arabian Leather smell like?

Voters rate its longevity as very strong and its sillage as strong, so it stays on skin for a long time and carries well around the wearer. Its dense character suits cooler air and settings where a noticeable scent is welcome.

Saffron and frankincense open it; brown sugar, leather and amber form the heart. Musk, vanilla and tonka bean sit underneath and turn the base creamy and sweet. The overall impression is oriental: a woody, leathery frame softened by a smoky sweetness. Those after a close profile may also look at Lattafa Pride Ishq Al Shuyukh Gold and Dolce & Gabbana Velvet Desert Oud.
