Drunk and dark
First and very important: it is ridiculous, that people who want to enjoy this wondrously extraordinary fragrance, have to pay double price because of the golden bottle. C'mon, the juice is so excellent, that people would buy it even in a gray noname flask!
Vinasse, drunken, dark colored fruits - the beginning is a really strong fruit oil with so much alcohol, that I felt dizzy after first sniff. It is not the usual alcoholic chugging of the beginning, it stays for hours.
Top and heart notes together gives a grape-plum mixture, I have to tell, that I never detected so clearly plum note in a perfume. I am amazed. Eucalyptus is not playing hardball, only supporting behind the scenes, so you almost feel the austere peel of plum in your mouth, not only the sweetness of it.
Oud plays also supportive role, I got accustomed to sharp, strong, smoky oud, but in GOLD LEATHER it gives only the smooth darkness to the background. Later on the fragrances grows to be a creamy, mild leather, only one piece residual plum on the top, laid on a woodden bench in a timber house next to a dark forest, after sunset, in the winter. So the feeling is great.
GOLD LEATHER - not easy to wear. I would not blow it every day, but I would go to the shelf and sniff it almost every hour. It is a perfect fragrance for a pair for a candlelit dinner téte-á-téte.
Congratulation, Mr. Epinette! You created something unbelievable - again.
