Affordable Raspberry-Leather Twin

I had my eye on this Leather Oudh for a long time. Every time I wanted to place an order, it was sold out, so it stayed on my wish list for a while. Now the timing was right, and it’s in my collection. It seems many people know that you can get Tuscan Leather or Godolphin for under 50 euros here. The L'Aventure line from this brand is also quite popular, as you can find Creed twins for under 50 euros as well. For me, it’s a great brand that delivers good quality for fair money.
A fragrance I ordered blind due to the twins. I extensively tested Godolphin by Parfums de Marly and found it very interesting. I never tested Tuscan Leather because the Private Blends are simply too expensive for me. I considered buying Godolphin, but for this fragrance, it’s also too pricey for me, as I feel it doesn’t fit many situations type-wise. I don’t regret buying this one, as you get a great twin. I even find it a bit rounder.

The scent is a high-quality Eau de Parfum, which is noticeable. The sillage is very good for a long time, and the longevity is 10+ hours. Convincing and great for this price.
The bottle is very attractive and has a nice color with a lovely cap. The well-known twins are definitely of higher quality in that regard, but the content is what counts.
The scent is quickly described. Anyone who knows the mentioned twins knows how it roughly smells. It is very similar to Godolphin with its raspberry-leather blend. It starts with a lot of raspberry. Very unique and not often smelled. The leather in the base also starts quite early and remains extremely active throughout the entire progression. Thyme is also very present at the start but fades away after a while, revealing softer notes. After a rather unusual start, this fragrance becomes very gentle and settles nicely with a wood-leather-musk blend without significantly changing its DNA. A great addition to a broad collection, as this type of scent simply stands out. I’m not the biggest leather fan, but I find this fragrance interesting. Even though this scent is highly rated here, it certainly won’t appeal to everyone in everyday life. But it will definitely stand out in the crowd and catch attention.
In my opinion, it’s definitely not for everyday use. More suitable for evenings and leisure in cooler temperatures. It’s also good for dates and similar occasions when you want to wear a special scent DNA instead of the usual suspects.

For bargain hunters, it’s a great alternative. A high-quality fragrance for all who love leather and raspberry.

Correctly and well described. I like it a lot. Still, I can't do without my Godolphin, which has an even higher addictive potential for me. The differences are present in the air, but not really noticeable.

I can agree with this comment. Very well expressed. In my opinion, the difference to TL is only noticeable for trained noses and only with the right attention.
