Name says it all. The smell of rich people partying in some penthouse in Manhattan. Cocaine , expensive champagne, fancy leather bags and a lot of debauchery. This is one intoxicating smell . Opens up with a rubbery, sparkling accord , probably the fruits and the leather which is quite pungent in the beginning. Settles very nicely to a beautiful sandalwood and cedar drydown.No wonder this was a winner of the Art and Olfaction Awards. Superb projection and longevity.

After a pungent and rubbery citric fruity-green opening, this musky spicy-leathery Fall fragrance, settles to a smooth leathery-woody base.

Interesting leather accord. Smells like new rubber tires. Weird but addictive.

My uncle bought an old funeral home and this absolutely makes me think of the basement of that building. Cold, unyielding damp and leather.

The fig on sandalwood evokes a very peculiar rubber scent. Later, leather comes in and it smells like a rubber mat plus leather seats.

This fig is appealing because it’s present, yet has found just the right spot within the Club Design environment. Otherwise: quirky.

Leather-rubber-fig sandal blasting from the cannon right in your face. The whole city opens the windows - extremely intense, I think it's awesome.

Rubber, exhaust, cream. Does anyone else smell the unlisted peppermint? Silly but funny, a typical Laudamiel provocation.

First Rammstein Benzin vibes,
then the green, tart fig comes through. Leather in the background. Crazy beautiful.

In this car, you can smell leather seats (older, very well-maintained), rubber (-wear), gasoline (dried, in trace elements), and fig. Awesome.

At the start, it reminds me of "Scent Tattoo." Laudamiel's signature is unmistakable. In the drydown, there's spicy leather. Very good scent.
