Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Gold Leather EDP
This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. For some, it's a boozy, spicy plum-leather dream; for others, a cloying mess akin to 'firewater in a hot car with leather seats'. Definitely not a blind buy.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Aurum Rawhide EDP
Perfume Parlour's affordable interpretation of Atelier - Gold Leather. Built around Artemisia, Bitter Orange, Guaiac Wood, it offers the character of the original at a budget price - a wallet-friendly alternative for fans of Atelier - Gold Leather.

Season and Occasion Fit

Gold Leather

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

Its strong projection and rich, boozy-leather profile make it too intense for the office. It's a fantastic choice for dates and formal events, though, where its sensual and sophisticated character can shine. It's a bit much for casual wear, except perhaps in very cold weather.

Aurum Rawhide

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

The woody character is happiest in autumn and winter - cooler air gives the warmth room to bloom; the dupe's lighter build means it can struggle to project in the opposite season.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Office Casual

Its woody, citrus signature leans toward evening and daily wear - approachable enough for formal use without overwhelming a room.
