great leather-smoke scent, comparison test
I haven't tested the scent Falcoin Leather, but I have tried the following three alternatives: Mystic Leather, Spectre, and Khalid. The three differ the most for me in the following impressions: Mystic Leather is more floral or fruity with bright leather and smoke, Spectre is more smoky, woody, saffron simple scent, Khalid has black smoke and sour leather at the beginning, leather runs through to the drydown. Spectre is probably the most suitable for everyday wear, followed by Mystic.
Mystic Leather is quite strong after spraying (as is Khalid), here a floral note fully unfolds, in the drydown it merges into a beautifully sweet, floral, woody base. Spectre is weaker here and Khalid is much coarser.
Ultimately, it's a matter of taste which scent is preferred. I will definitely get Spectre, the price-performance ratio is good.

Soft Leather and Gentle Smoke
Resembles Khalid by Lataffa (presumably also the Falcon Leather) quite a bit, the smoke here is not as dark and strong. Instead, the leather is softer and the scent does not come across as fruity. Spectre is more suitable for everyday wear but weaker than the Lataffa scent. Something irritated me after a short time; a comparison on the clothing shows that Spectre appears significantly more synthetic compared to Khalid. Khalid is smoky black here.

Smoke Bomb
It's best to spray it generously, then it really works.
A first small spray had disappointed me, as I only smelled a slightly sour leather. Now the fragrance could truly unfold. It is really very smoky and coconuty, with a slight sweet warmth. So the smoke clearly dominates at first, but my nose can handle it here.
The bottle is well chosen and fits the content. The blue "stones" represent the cool freshness of the fragrance, while Khalid is brutal and the wearer essentially has a strong scent armor on.
I will report my further impressions in the coming days...

Great Fragrance Development
For me, the best scent of the three (as of 12/24: Deserta, Aura, Electri). Upon spraying, it initially reminds me of an oud; I also detected rum and a hint of honey in the background. Later, wood and a very pleasant smoke emerged.
After that, the fragrance developed into smoky vanilla, which reminds me of earlier disco nights with the typical smoke on the dance floor back then.
The "rum" later transforms into a fruity alcoholic scent, mixed with incense.
The fragrance development is beautiful and certainly fits well with the theme or name.
Wearability: special occasions or for a date; it is a true niche fragrance. Those looking for something special will find it here.

Brilliantly Composed
After spraying, Hayat smells almost like glue with a slightly animalistic note. It took about a quarter of an hour for the wonderful woody scent to first shine through. At the beginning, the perfume still has a slightly sweet and fresh quality (lavender). I could also notice a berry note. However, the scents fade over the next few hours. It develops into a very heavy woody/resinous scent (like furniture polish) that tickles the nose. By the way, the smell lasts easily 2-3 days on fabric.
Update 10/24
After several tests, I conclude: It starts off chemically with fruity grapefruit and a bit of lavender, animalic is always perceptible in the background, later it becomes strongly woody, earthy, with a drydown of animalic and furniture polish. So far, my second best discovered oud scent. The fragrance notes are well intertwined and perfectly balanced. The sillage is truly room-filling strong; a few sprays are sufficient.
Hayat by Kemi (the same scent was previously marketed under a different brand) is currently rated 8.1 here. To me, both scents smell absolutely the same.
