Irish Leather

Irish Leather is an aromatic, fresh spicy, Leather scent created for Men and Women in 2013 by perfumer Alienor Massenet.

Review

This scent is clean and Leathery with an almost vegetal, slightly soapy essence to it. Juniper, Tea, and Iris create a crisp, earthy nuance that reminds one of the chill that hangs in the early morning air, while Leather and Amber add a subtly sharp warmth. It conjures an image of someone on horseback riding through the dew soaked moores at sunrise, his worn Leather jacket absorbing the fresh air. It is perfectly suitable for an office setting, and can be worn for a casual occasion or easily dressed up for formal settings. It has an outdoorsy vibe to it that is perfect for any weekend adventurer. It has been compared to Tom Ford’s Tuscan Leather, Creed’s Green Irish Tweed, and Frederic Malle’s French Lover.

Inspiration

Irish Leather encompasses a crisp, early morning breeze blowing through the long grass of a peaceful Irish countryside. Dew still soaks the earth as the sun just begins to peak over the horizon. 

Notes

Juniper blends with Green Mate Absolute to create a slightly green fresh opening. Clary Sage, Flouve, and Pink Pepper blend with Iris Concrete that adds a slightly sweet grassy feel as everything begins to dry down together. A Leather Accord is joined with Amber, Birch, and Tonka Bean for a slightly sharp, slightly sweet, but velvety finish that adds the perfect depth to this aromatic scent.
