What do reviewers say about Exquisite Leather and Bound?
This is the leather jacket that costs a third of what you'd expect. The quality exceeds expectations for a budget brand, refined, not aggressive, with a sweetness that keeps it versatile.Exquisite Leather
If you think you don't do sweet-spicy orientals, Bound might change your mind. The green apple and green mandarin opening sounds counterintuitive for a tonka-forward scent.Bound
