Which Should You Buy?
Composition Nine takes on Amouage's discontinued Opus IX, that polarising, opulent jasmine-and-civet floral. Perfume Parlour captures the indolic jasmine and waxy-leather body well, with owners citing high similarity, though it leans sweeter and slightly less raw than the original's full-throated animalic drama.
Divisive, unique, and utterly captivating, Platinum Leather isn't your average hide. It's a complex, intriguing scent that, for those who love it, borders on obsession, but for others, it's just not quite right.
