Our verdict on Royal Leather: Acquired

Divisive and unique, this isn't for everyone. Expect a challenging but rewarding wear, where creamy sweetness clashes with earthy mystery. Not a safe blind-buy, but a cult classic for those who get it.

About

An opening blast of sharp juniper and herbal mate gives way to a complex heart where the promised leather struggles to break through, instead settling into a dark, earthy gourmand. Warm amber and rich oud mingle with sweet tonka, leading to a base of powdery praline, delicate rose, and exotic saffron, with hints of bitter dark chocolate lingering on the skin.
