The scent is actually not at all what I expected. I also have the regular baz and thought this one would simply be similar, just a bit weaker. However, the scent is perhaps only 30% the same. Of course, leather is present in both. But the baz cuir is clearly designed for a broader audience. Initially leathery with a bit of sweetness that fades over time. People around me said it smells like burnt rubber, but I find the scent very good. It makes a statement and stands out among other fragrances with its masculine, somewhat dirty leather, and in the dry down, the amber really comes through. For me, a masterpiece just like its big brother...
