I really love this fragrance. It's truly excellent. Not a vastly complex fragrance but a very nice leather accord in here, one with really smells like leather. Leather 'accuracy' or realism is not something I'm hang up on, like many accords an effects in perfumery it can be a broad church as can leather itself depended on type, where it's sourced, how it's treated/tanned etc...and I allow for a degree of creative license in achieving 'leather' in perfumery terms. This has the deep, buttery, unsweetened effect you get from creating it using orris/iris type materials but this is less cosmetic than a Dior Homme for instance. I didn't really get a lot from the top notes other than a very delicate nuance, transitioning base & mid hum, that this the general tonality of this perfume. I can't wait to try it again actually, it's not a hugely creative take, it's not particularly screaming innovation, it's a very good perfume, executed incredibly well and as much as I think the Armani prive line has always been good, I wasn't really expecting tto be so charmed by this.
