LEATHER
Animalic Note
With an amusing story behind it, leather became a member of the perfume ingredients almost by accident. A note synthetically produced or naturally derived that tries to mimic the warmth surfacing each time we come across even the tiniest piece of cured leather. A base note that anchors well to the perfume’s body providing it with phenolic, animalic castoreum-like and balsamic details. The phenolic character is appreciated for the thin and clean airy flow, while the castoreum hints lay the foundation for a soft animalic scent with an excitingly primitive sensuality. The leather note is found both in feminine and masculine fragrances, splendidly blended with floral notes, composing a powdery, sharp and dry accord, which is genuinely attractive to people and generates a sense of power and prestige.
