    Real talk

    Two sides of Raphael in a bottle. The absinthe gives you sharp, artistic clarity. Then the leather and teak bring it home. Strength and creativity, coexisting in a single composition that moves from.Raffaello
    If you want a polite fragrance, look elsewhere. African Leather announces itself and doesn't apologize. The leather in the drydown is the real deal, not some synthetic imitation.African Leather
