What does Spanish Leather (Cologne) smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both moderate, so it stays close rather than filling a room. Most voters pick autumn and spring, while business, evening and leisure wear are about equally favoured. Most votes call it masculine or classic.

The top of pimento, bergamot and orange gives a fresh, lightly spiced start. In the heart, cinnamon, sandalwood, cedar and patchouli build a woody body, while rose and orris root soften the floral side. At the base, tonka bean, amber, vanilla and musk leave a sweet, earthy warmth. Giorgio Beverly Hills Giorgio for Men and Ralph Lauren Safari for Men have a close profile.
