What does Suede (2018) smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good, though the number of ratings is small, so those scores deserve some caution. Being unisex, it leans toward no one gender and suits people who like heavy, characterful fragrances.

It opens with suede, tobacco sits in the heart, and leather dominates the base. The accords frame it as spicy, woody and resinous, while animal and smoky touches add an earthy roughness. Rook Perfumes Suede (2020) and Montale Aoud Cuir d'Arabie have a close profile.
