It opens on sage with bergamot, mandarin and a soft touch of lavandin, moves into a rich leather accord, and dries down on cedarwood, tonka bean, cocoa and incense. Reviewers describe it as sweet leather at first, with the sweetness gradually giving way to smoky leather that lasts the longest.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eScent Character\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cdiv data-venba-scent-character\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLeather\u003c\/strong\u003e: 34%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFresh\u003c\/strong\u003e: 34%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWoody\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFloral\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eTranslation:\u003c\/em\u003e a fresh, aromatic sage-and-citrus opening balanced against an equally strong leather core.
