This fragrance opens with a chocolaty leather accord — dry and intense. It gives me the impression of a cowhide desiccated by the desert sun and winds. As the scent progresses, the chocolate undertone dissolves into a clove note with smoky accents. On me the spice dominates the whole composition and I see little of the initially-strong leather accord. It resurfaces more clearly only towards the dry down — after the spices have burnt off. Overall this is a very light scent with little lasting power: after roughly four hours it is gone.
