Tuscan Leather

$295.00

Raspberry and saffron in the opening read initially as almost sweet, until the leather arrives in the heart and recontextualizes everything that came before. Birch tar gives the leather a smoky, medicinal quality that jasmine tries to soften and mostly fails to, which is correct: Tuscan Leather should be uncomfortable in exactly this way. Suede and oakmoss in the base resolve the composition into something dry and authoritative, amber providing a warmth that keeps it from being purely cold.

Why We Carry This

Tuscan Leather remains one of the most studied leather compositions in contemporary perfumery. Fremont's raspberry-birch combination solved a problem that Knize Ten and Cuir de Russie posed differently, and the answer still reads as fresh. We carry it as the reference leather in our Tom Ford selection.
