Eden Perfumes No.659 African Leather is a Parfum. No.659 African Leather opens with Geranium, Pink Pepper, and Cardamom, settles into a heart of Patchouli, Rose, Cinnamon, and Saffron, and dries down to a base of Leather, Amber, and Oud. Eden Perfumes's No.659 African Leather carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

A spiced leather dupe of Memo Paris's African Leather, leaning on cardamom and saffron over a leather-oud-amber base. Community feedback calls it a close, better-value take, though it renders flatter and fades faster than the niche original.

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.

About

No.659 goes after the cardamom-and-saffron leather signature of Memo Paris's African Leather, opening with warm spice and pink pepper over a rosy, patchouli-rich heart before settling into a leather, oud and amber base. Like the original, the balance shifts with skin chemistry - on some wearers the spice and saffron lead, on others the leather and woods dominate - which reviewers say is part of what makes it feel like a genuine signature scent rather than a flat copy. Made with natural botanical ingredients rather than synthetics, it develops smoothly on skin, and wearers who know the £200+ niche original describe this as a strong, better-value approximation. It runs a touch less rich and doesn't project or last quite as long as the real African Leather, but for a bold spiced-leather scent at a fraction of the cost it is a solid pick.
