Interestingly enough, my skin chemistry doesn't seem to render sugar and leather as much as the title of the fragrance would suggest. I get something that sits between Oajan and Angels' Share Eau de Parfum with a lot of ressemblance to Ambre Khandjar .
Deep, liquorish-like plums permeate the beginning of this fragrance, with the mingling of cinnamon offering spiciness and warmth. I soon start getting some deep woodiness and an earthy patchouli that reinforces the spiciness. Tonka adds some sweetness and powderiness. Drydown remains ever so woody while the liquorish fruitiness has receded in favor of a soft, pliable and wearable leather. Not sports car leather, but more like a purse kind of leather. More subtle, more smooth. Overall, the fragrance seems to follow the same pattern as Ambre Khandjar with some slight adjustments due to the different notes. It has the same fruity / woody / dark aspect that I found in the aforementioned fragrance. The drydown of the fragrance leans way more masculine than Ambre Khandjar though.
Since I'm not a fan of liquors, woodiness and leather, this fragrance won't be making it into my collection. The drydown leans very masculine to me which is a turn off. I don't find that the title of the fragrance suits it well, but this might be due to my skin chemistry. On to the next!
