Leather
The scent of leather is multifaceted and complex, ranging from the sharp, smoky intensity of birch tar and the animalic depth of castoreum to the smooth, supple feel of suede and the clean, slightly sweet aroma of new leather goods. It can present as dry, woody, rubbery, tarry, phenolic, or even subtly floral or fruity depending on its source and treatment. Intensity varies wildly, from a whisper of worn suede to a commanding, almost aggressive presence. It typically behaves as a base note, providing structure, longevity, and a grounding foundation, though lighter, more diffusive leather synthetics can appear in the heart. Its projection can be significant, often leaving a memorable sillage.
