    Real talk

    Here's the thing about leather fragrances, most of them announce themselves like a door slam. Imperial Leather doesn't. It opens bright, almost fragile, then becomes something warm and worn and close.Imperial Leather
    This is the one that people either crave or can't get past. The opening is aggressive, four spices firing at once, but that's the point. The concentrated blend creates an immediate impact.Sauvage Elixir
