What does Vibrant Leather Extreme smell like?

It opens with a sparkling cloud of bergamot, lemon and tangerine. In the heart, black leather and saffron take over, pushing the scent towards a leathery, spicy character. The base lays down a woody, earthy floor of patchouli and papyrus, and cotton candy softens it with a touch of sweetness.

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters recommend spring and fall, though winter and summer are not far behind. It leans towards leisure and daily wear, with business and evening also getting votes. It reads masculine, with a modern side too. Zara Vibrant Leather (Eau de Parfum) and Zara Night pour Homme IV have a close profile.
