Today I care for my leather with coconut oil
Pleasantly leathery is my first association.
Very fine leather.
I also smell hints of fig. Also a trace of coconut.
Lightly woody underneath.
Where is the plum?
Very unisex. Pure understatement. Classic.
Somehow it has something. But veeeery understated.
A skin scent. A fragrance that can give you a good feeling.
Just for yourself - not for others.
Similar to expensive, well-fitting underwear that makes you walk differently, just because you know what great thing you are wearing. Although… you can wear nice underwear for your sweetheart too… hm… I digress...
In any case: this is how a leather saddle should smell, one that has been thoroughly cared for with coconut oil.
Any equestrian girls in the house? Can someone verify this?
Sillage is practically nonexistent and longevity is also rather below average, i.e. about 2-3 hours. Nevertheless, I find the scent very pleasant, especially because it comes across as so unpretentious and simple. Perfect for job interviews or similar occasions.
Since it is universally applicable, it can also be worn year-round.
The bottle is very simple or simply uninspired - depending on your perspective.
