What does Leather Forever smell like?

It opens with olive, Sicilian bergamot, frankincense and pepper, giving a citrusy, spicy freshness. In the heart, orris root and rose meet the leather, and the leathery accord becomes clear. In the base, cedar, oak and Australian sandalwood form a woody foundation, while tonka bean, benzoin and Bourbon vanilla sweeten it slightly and musk softens it.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, though the small number of votes means these ratings are tentative. It suits men and women alike, with leather carrying most of the weight. Cerruti L'Essence de Cerruti and David Beckham Homme have a close profile.
