Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Aoud Leather EDP
Aoud Leather from Montale is a beast-mode, divisive scent. You'll either love this bold, refined leather with oud and citrus or find it too harsh and synthetic. Definitely sample before committing.

Our Verdict - Untethered EDP
Untethered is Alexandria UK's take on Tom Ford Ombre Leather - a spicy cardamom-leather built around the same DNA. It trades the original's soft, jasmine-tempered polish for a louder, flatter opening and roughly half the six-hour skin life, but it nails the leather-amber core at a fraction of the cost.
