Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - African Leather EDP
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.
Acquired
Our Verdict - Milan EDP
A budget Noted Aromas interpretation of Tom Ford Ombre Leather (2018) - cardamom, leather and patchouli translated into NA's UK dupe-house take at a fraction of the original's price. Honest dupe-fidelity for daily wear.

With its strong projection and noticeable sillage, African Leather might be a bit much for a conservative office, but reviewers often wear it there, suggesting moderate application. Its unique blend of spicy leather makes it a fantastic choice for dates and formal events, though perhaps too refined for casual wear during the day.
