Fahrenheit Parfum Dior 2014

For me, the old Fahrenheit dna is still present and does show where Le Parfum came from. The so called gasoline/petrol note is at its minimum in LP. But it is there and it makes the leather sound/smell more robust and refined than in the ol'Fahr. What makes me a little puzzled is the way people critisizes Le Parfum. Although it does resemble his now far relative, Le Parfum brings other things to my mind, or my nose. Cuir de Russie by Chanel and Cuir de Lancome are the ones I know. If it had a bit more florals Le Parfum would be a perfect scent all the way, because it wouldn't be hidden behind a"female" label, as it happens with other Cuirs. Because of its very high price Cuir de Russie is almost out of reach for me. I was trying to get another Cuir de L. in vain. And after reading some reviews about LP I thought it was going to be yet another Spicebomb clone ( yes, Bulgari Man in Black is just that plus some faint leather) I was nowhere close to a nice leather scent that could come out from my pocket. Than I saw a very tempting offer in the net, and got Le Parfum blingly. I am happy I did because it is just lovely. All is missing is the violet leaves, but Fahrenheit is there. Petrol? No, Leather. If you know the other leathers I said before you will know what I mean. Leather. Leather. Good quality Leather. And not that much sweet as one may think. My 50ml Cuirs de Lancome will last much longer now that I layer it with LP. I am to receive my bottle of Van Cleef&Arpels First EDP. I think one spritz would do magic combined with LP. I hardly can wait. And, you know what? I might ask Father Christmas a bottle of Cuir the Russie. How knows I've been a good boy this year?
