Exquisite Leather Eau de Parfum vs Les Absolus d'Orient Patchouli Ardent Eau de Parfum
ScentArt
Which Should You Buy?
Surprisingly good for the price, this Beckham fragrance punches well above its weight. It's a dark, sweet leather bomb that some find fantastic value, while others are put off by its roughness. Expect a divide, but a loyal following from those who get it.
Don't let the name fool you - this ain't your usual patchouli. It's a loud, complex rose-leather bomb that some adore and others find a bit much. A high-quality oriental for those who like to make a statement.

Its strong leather and woody accords, combined with good longevity and projection mentioned in reviews, make it less suitable for the office. However, it's a solid choice for dates, casual outings, and formal events, especially in cooler weather, as its bold and warm character shines through.
