Guess Suede

6.5

Guess · 2007

Fresh · Floral · Green

Guess Suede is a fresh, green men's fragrance that settles onto a woody, softly leathery base; it has been discontinued. The top notes of bergamot, tangerine and pineapple give a fruity brightness. In the heart, nutmeg, lavender and sage build a spicy, fougère-style transition, with the floral and green side coming forward. The base of vetiver, sandalwood, suede and mahogany carries a woody, leathery depth, softened by sweet and resinous tones. A synthetic edge also runs through the accords. It reads as a clean, masculine fougère, and it shares a close profile with Penhaligon's Endymion Concentré and Carolina Herrera CH Men (Eau de Toilette).

Natural Talent

6.4

Snif · 2022

Floral · Fruity · Woody

Snif Natural Talent is a floral, woody unisex scent built around jasmine, osmanthus and sandalwood. The floral accord leads: jasmine and osmanthus give it a soft petal texture, while clementine and apricot add a fruity sweetness. Sandalwood and cashmere wood form the woody base, and suede and cistus bring a powdery, creamy feel with a slightly leathery edge. The notes don't split into stages, so the scent reads as one whole from start to finish. Faynt Rush Hour and Gloria Vanderbilt Minuit à New York have a close profile.

8.5

David Yurman · 2011

Floral · Sweet · Spicy

It opens with raspberry, saffron, coriander and geranium, a fruity and spiced start. In the heart, night-blooming jasmine, Taif rose, violet and oud lead, and the floral side takes on a smoky, resinous depth. The base of suede, vanilla, sandalwood and musk softens and sweetens everything, settling into a leathery, powdery dry-down. Lattafa Just Oud and Rasasi Faqat Lil Rijal have a close profile.

Odile

7.5

Gumamina · 2023

Citrus · Leathery

Gumamina Odile is a citrusy, leathery unisex scent built around star anise, suede and blood orange. The notes aren't split into top, heart and base; the scent reads as one whole from start to finish. Blood orange brings a bright citrus edge, while star anise adds a spiced note to it. Suede and rubber lay down a slightly hard leathery base, which dark chocolate deepens and softens, and musk keeps everything smooth against the skin. The result is a mix that is fruity and leathery at once, and a little out of the ordinary. In notes and accords it has a profile close to Stetson Stetson Untamed and Fine-Tuned Fragrance Electric Boogie.

Pêche et Suède

7.4

Linda Landenberg · 2017

Floral · Fruity · Sweet

Linda Landenberg Pêche et Suède is a sweet, powdery unisex scent that suits daily wear and relaxed hours. Its longevity and sillage are moderate, so it stays close without vanishing quickly.

White peach and blue freesia give it a fruity, floral sweetness, which suede and sandalwood soften into a creamy, powdery base. It fits anyone who likes a gentle, soft scent. Adopt' Wonderful and Parfums de Marly Cassili have a close profile.

Blindfold

7.7

L'Objet · 2025

Fresh · Floral · Synthetic

L'Objet Blindfold is a unisex scent that sets a fresh, floral side against spicy, woody and animal tones. The notes read as one whole rather than a top, heart and base sequence. Saffron and tobacco bring a spicy, oriental warmth, sandalwood lays the woody ground, and suede and civet add a leathery, animal depth. Gardenia and floral notes soften it, while tonka bean and amber notes leave a creamy sweetness. The solar note adds a bright, synthetic freshness. Balmain Homme and Rogue Derviche have a close profile.

Citrus, floral, spicy, woody and resinous accords all show up. The notes have no top, heart and base split; flowers, leather and resins sit together from start to finish. Rogue Derviche and Zoologist Tyrannosaurus Rex have a close profile.

8.7

O Boticário · 2022

Citrus · Sweet · Synthetic

O Boticário Malbec X is a men's fragrance that sets bright citrus against a sweet, spicy and leathery base. Its longevity and sillage are both rated moderate, though only a handful of voters have rated it, so that picture is tentative. No clear lean towards a particular season or occasion shows up. It reads as masculine. It opens with mandarin orange, grapefruit and yuzu for a sharp citrus lift, with violet leaf adding a green edge. Benzoin and cardamom bring a sweet, spicy warmth to the heart. The base of patchouli, suede, amber and leathery notes leaves a woody, resinous, leathery finish.

Oud & Zagara

7.2

Acqua di Parma · 2024

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Acqua di Parma Oud & Zagara pairs oud with Sicilian orange blossom, a unisex scent where fresh citrus meets a spicy, woody depth. Its sillage is rated good, though only a few votes stand behind that, so it is a rough guide at best. There is not enough information on longevity, seasons or occasions. Being unisex, it suits both men's and women's skin. The notes read as one whole rather than in stages: lemon and bergamot give a bright citrus freshness, while ylang-ylang and Sicilian orange blossom form the floral side. Saffron and nutmeg add a spicy warmth, and oud, cistus and vetiver build a woody, resinous, earthy base. Suede brings a soft leathery touch, and musk and ambergris wrap everything in an animalic sweetness.

8.2

Nilafar du Nil · 2022

Sweet · Spicy · Woody

Its dense, warm build points towards cooler weather, and it reads equally well on men and women. The top opens with clove, saffron, nutmeg and lemon, softened by a creamy touch. The heart brings pimento, dark chocolate, red wine and damask rose. Sandalwood, suede, amber and tobacco settle in the base. Blend Oud Santal Pondicherry and Narciso Rodriguez For Her L'Absolu have a close profile.

7.6

Tommy Hilfiger · 2025

Sweet · Woody · Oriental

Tommy Hilfiger Impact Parfum is a sweet, woody oriental for men, with resin and leather running through its warmth. It opens on elemi resin, with oud at the heart. The base settles into suede and vanilla: the vanilla sweetens the scent while the suede adds a soft, leathery edge. Sweet, woody and oriental accords lead, and the resinous and leathery sides stay in the background. Voters rate its longevity as good and its sillage as moderate, though the vote count is small, so this is only a rough guide. Its dense, warm build suits cooler weather best.

7.7

Lorga Parfums · 2020

Synthetic · Gourmand · Spicy

Lorga Parfums Cuir Affiné is a unisex scent built on leather and smoke, softened by gourmand touches. It opens with bergamot, then tuberose absolute, milk and hazelnut cream give the heart a creamy, sweet turn. Tobacco absolute and suede form the base, and the spicy, woody, animal accords run through the dry-down. Voters rate its longevity and sillage as good, though the sample is small, so those ratings are not conclusive. It sits comfortably on both men and women, a dense, characterful scent. Zara S4ND4LW00D and Maison Margiela Jazz Club have a close profile.

8.2

soOud

Floral · Sweet · Gourmand

Extrait de Parfum

soOud Asmar Parfum Nektar Extrait de Parfum is a sweet, gourmand, slightly animalic unisex scent in which coffee, suede and white honey lead. The notes read as one whole rather than as a top, heart and base. Coffee and tobacco form a dry, spicy core, while heliotrope and carnation soften it with a powdery floral sweetness. White honey, vanilla and musk add a creamy, resinous warmth, and suede and ambergris bring an animalic, woody depth. As an Extrait it wears with strong longevity and sillage; every voter finds the longevity high, though the number of votes is small, so this is only a rough guide. Its sweet, oriental build suits cooler days better than heat. Its profile is close to Asmar Eau Fine and My Geisha Foreplay.

7.8

The Dua Brand · 2018

Citrus · Floral · Sweet

8.7

Bujairami

Green · Sweet · Spicy

The overall impression is spicy, woody and dark, with the sweetness sitting behind the smoke. There are too few votes to say anything about its longevity, sillage, season or occasion.
