David Beckham Exquisite Leather is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2024. Exquisite Leather opens with Pink Pepper, Cardamom, Apple, and Raspberry, settles into a heart of Leather, Jasmine, Iris, and Juniper, and dries down to a base of Musk, Cedar, Sandalwood, and Oakmoss. David Beckham's Exquisite Leather carries a Favourite verdict, a fruity-led wear.

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.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Fall Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

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.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

  • Oakmoss Evernia prunastri extract from Oakmoss

Other declarable allergens

  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Exquisite Leather opens with a vibrant, spicy-fruity burst of cardamom, pink pepper, and a hint of apple and raspberry. This quickly gives way to the star of the show: a rich, dark leather, deepened by earthy orris and a touch of juniper. As it settles, warm sandalwood, velvety cashmeran, and robust cedar emerge, creating a powdery, musky-woody dry down with an almost smoky, incense-like quality. The overall effect is a bold, masculine statement.
