LeatheryWhat does Halfeti Leather smell like?
Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, with evenings and nights out leading the occasions. It leans masculine in most votes, though it is classed as unisex.
It opens with bergamot, plum, citrus fruits and green notes, a light fruity brightness. The heart brings cinnamon, cardamom, cumin, nutmeg, violet and lavender, spicy and sweet in a warm way. The base of leather, oud, frankincense, patchouli and cedarwood settles into a woody, smoky ground.
