Floris London Leather Oud is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2014. Leather Oud opens with Leather and Bergamot, and dries down to a base of Woody Notes, Amber, and Vetiver. Floris London's Leather Oud carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

Floris Leather Oud is a divisive beast: some say sophisticated and sexy, others find it too medicinal or not leathery enough. If you like your oud with a floral, slightly sweet edge and aren't afraid of a bit of an animalic kick, then dive in.

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 autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its strong projection and rich, complex profile make it too much for the office or casual wear, but it truly shines on a date or at formal events where its luxurious character can be appreciated. Reviewers specifically mention it as a "date night" scent and pairing well with sophisticated attire.

About

Opens with a sharp, fresh bergamot that quickly delves into an intricate dance of supple leather and a distinctive oud. Geranium and carnation add a slightly boozy, floral sweetness, preventing the leather from becoming too harsh. As it dries, deep woody notes and warm amber emerge, grounding the fragrance in a rich, velvety finish with hints of vetiver.
