The first note I get is the toasted cardamom which comes off is spicy with some sweetness, this perfume gives me a sense of soothing. I smell the blonde cedarwood, which is fragrant. The copal smoke comes out to me as an earthy citrus, which I can see complimenting the light citrus in the cardamom. The brown leather is really delicate in this scent, barely detectable so if you aren’t a leather-forward fan but appreciate the other notes, then this is worth trying. I can smell a touch of musk which adds in body to the fragrance. I would classify this throw as light, and work-appropriate.

I was a bit wary of this at first because leather generally gives me a headache, but this has a nice restrained feel to it and is not overpowering. It smells like a truly aged leather, which is really nice. I get the cedarwood and copal smoke next, which gives it a slightly sharp kind of aftershave feel that I like, but there is a warmth there rather than feeling cool or bracing. Overall, this is a nice snuggly scent, and gives me the impression of sticking my face in the well loved leather jacket of someone I am particularly fond of.
