Which Should You Buy?
Italian Leather is a divisive beast, but a masterful one. It's eccentric, unique, and for those who 'get' it, deeply alluring. The tomato leaf note is a deal-breaker for some, a signature for others.
Afnan's Abstract is a truly unique, sophisticated beast, delivering niche quality at an unbeatable price. It's wildly divisive whether it's an Encelade clone, but everyone agrees it's a deep, rich cherry-rhubarb triumph. Prepare to be complimented and feel utterly mysterious.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
Its strong projection and unique, potentially polarising, tomato leaf note make it less suitable for a confined office. However, its sophisticated and sensual character, combined with excellent longevity, makes it a prime candidate for dates and evening formal events. It's a bit too rich for casual daily wear, as many mentioned it's not a 'daily driver'.
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
With its stellar projection and longevity, this intense fragrance is best reserved for evening wear or cooler weather. The luxurious, dark accords make it perfect for dates and formal events where you want to leave a lasting, intriguing impression.
