Real talk
This fragrance does not announce itself. Bergamot and vetiver give it structure, but the florals keep it from feeling austere. It works best when you want to smell present without screaming.Bal d'Afrique
Some fragrances want to be liked. Old Leather does not perform for approval, it simply exists in its own skin, dense with memory and a little bit of smoke.Old Leather
