Which Should You Buy?
This one's a head-turner, no doubt. African Leather is a captivating spicy-leather that manages to be both distinctive and broadly appealing, if you can get past the price and potential batch variations.
This isn't for the faint of heart. Leather Noir is a bold, take-no-prisoners kind of scent, diving headfirst into deep animalic leather territory that's got everyone saying 'oud' even when it's not listed. Definitely a love-it-or-hate-it beast.
