Coach Leatherware No. 01

My father owns this fragrance. Last time I visited my parents, I noticed my dad smelled really good. As creepy as that sounds, I was really impressed by the scent. My father was never really a cologne guy. I finally asked him what he was wearing and he showed me the bottle. The bottle is simple and elegant looking however the construction is a little poor. The label on the bottle is only a paper label that will eventually fall of. The cap was plastic and seemed rather cheap. However, the smell was amazing!! It is a soft rich and creamy leather. It really does smell like a quality leather bag or briefcase. On first spray it is citrusy and spicy. Then the woody and leather notes come through. Overall it is a fresh leather masculine scent that smells very inviting. I would say the longevity was above average but the projection was at around moderate. I occasionally caught a pleasant whiff of the cologne within the 7 hour mark. It is amazingly versatile. It can be worn casually as well as formally and to work. Overall I recommend this cologne to people who love fresh leather scents that are not like tuscan leather. Longevity: 7/10 Sillage: 6/10 Versatility: 9/10 Scent: 10/10 Overall: 8/10

Coach Leatherware No. 1 is definitely the freshest-smelling of the Leatherware trio, and I regard it as almost a fougere leather without any actual lavender. I mostly get leather with the spicy, herbal elements of coriander and saffron. Pleasant but daring enough to annoy some, as my understanding is that this tends to be the least popular of the trio. It's not strictly masculine, given the mix of elements in it. It's arguably not a very "pure" leather in that respect, but certainly leathery enough to still be easily regarded as leather-dominant. Performance is solid without being quite as strong as No. 3, but still solid for an EDP. Discontinued in 2015, I'm glad to have this as part of my collection even though it's certainly not my very favorite leather. 8 out of 10

Just picked up a bottle at the coach store for $48!! What an amazing underrated juice! Smooth, leathery, masculine, classy, and sophisticated are words that come to mind! It is a subtle cologne with moderate to soft projection that will draw people in to have a sniff. Many are complaining about it not being a real EDP but I disagree. It may not project and shout or last a week, but it has a rich concentration of beautiful smelling oils that definitely produce a noticeable scent. Wear this under a suit, leather jacket, or nice shirt and people will definitely notice your charming smell! Scent: 10/10 Versatility: 10/10 Longevity: 7/10 Projection: 6/10 Overall: 8.5/10

I enjoy this one a lot! It's very clean and bright, very "green" smelling. It's saddle-soaped leather, basically. I feel like the leather isn't the star of the show in this particular fragrance, but it plays a huge supporting role. The green notes take and hold center stage. The focus tends to be here not so much leather, but the CLEANLINESS of leather. 10/10 for me, I love this way more than I ever thought I would. *edit: 5/23/15 Coach has cut the price IN HALF. These are now $48 on their site.

Recently purchased. My first impression was Tuscany. After a few minutes I thought it smelled like Aramis in a more concentrated form. This is EDP level scent. Masculine scent. Balanced leather scent. Not overpowering. Very pleased.
