Smoky & Earthy

Leather smells like the interior of a well-worn saddle or vintage handbag—earthy, slightly animalic, with warm tobacco and wood undertones. There's an almost smoky, bittersweet quality, reminiscent of old books and aged suede. It's dry yet vaguely creamy, conjuring images of smoke-filled gentlemen's clubs and polished riding boots. Unlike the raw smell of fresh hide, fragrance leather is refined, sophisticated, and mysteriously animalic without being offensive.

Woody

Malayan oud smells like dark, resinous wood that's been slowly burning in an ancient temple—imagine the depth of wet earth after rain, threaded with bitter leather and a whisper of smoke. There's an animalic warmth beneath, almost creamy, like the inside of a leather jacket worn for decades. It's simultaneously woody and animalic, with a slight medicinal edge that catches in your nostrils. The scent feels heavy, grounding, profoundly grown-up—nothing sharp or bright.
