What does Wild Leather smell like?

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall and winter, and evening and night out lead the occasions. It is unisex, though more voters read it as masculine, while a fair number find it feminine.

The top has black pepper, white thyme and bergamot; the heart brings geranium, saffron and lavender. It dries down to leather, gaiac wood and patchouli. The overall impression is spicy and woody, with a sweet, creamy and slightly smoky side behind it.
