Which Should You Buy?
Italian Leather is a divisive beast, but a masterful one. It's eccentric, unique, and for those who 'get' it, deeply alluring. The tomato leaf note is a deal-breaker for some, a signature for others.
A budget interpretation of Tom Ford Myrrhe Mystere, Mystic Myrrh Serenity captures the resinous myrrh-and-amber opening but sweetens and simplifies the drydown. The mystical incense character of the original is there at first, before the dupe drifts into a softer, vanilla-led warmth.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
Its strong projection and unique, potentially polarising, tomato leaf note make it less suitable for a confined office. However, its sophisticated and sensual character, combined with excellent longevity, makes it a prime candidate for dates and evening formal events. It's a bit too rich for casual daily wear, as many mentioned it's not a 'daily driver'.
Seasons
The resinous amber, myrrh and vanilla warmth is built for cold-weather wear, peaking in autumn and winter.
Occasions
A sensual, cosy amber that suits evenings, dates and intimate formal settings rather than daytime or sport.
