    Real talk

    Leather fragrances don't get more opinionated than this. The animalic leather combination is bold, undeniable. But that's the whole point. Gold Leather isn't trying to please everyone.Gold Leather
    This is the fragrance for someone who wants vetiver and nothing else. No florals to soften it, no sweetness to apologize for. Just the dry, earthy depth of roots and bark.Encre Noire
