As far as leathery perfumes go in my opinion, this one isn’t bad at all. I’m a woman who isn’t fond of leather scent notes, so I was disappointed after first spraying Hollyrose. However, after time the leather is lighter than let’s say Tom Ford’s Ombré Leather, and in my book that’s really good. I quickly liked it. Combined with the rose it’s leather edge disappears. Don’t get me wrong—it’s definitely still there, just not harsh.
It’s a good leather choice for women who are edgy and don’t play by the rules. I like it.
