LeatheryWhat does Girl of the Year smell like?
It opens with lipstick and frankincense: the lipstick gives a powdery, faintly fruity face, while the frankincense adds a resinous depth. In the heart, smoke and leather take over, bringing out the leathery, smoky side of the scent. The base of orris root, sandalwood and fur settles into a powdery, sweet warmth with an animal edge. Edward Bess Last Night and Rituals Vintage Leather have a close profile.
