Vintage Suede

Edit: I've had this one for almost 3 years and it just keeps getting better. After sitting on my shelf and only being used a few times I decided to try it out again. What a difference, it is so much smoother and richer now. It still is a bit sweeter than Ombre Leather but for $20!!! $20????!!! this is really outstanding. To me it's the perfect early spring fragrance. I prefer it for this season only but it can't be used for any colder weather and it'll be fantastic. It's not ultra masculine but it's great for men looking for an accessible leather or suede scent. I'm so glad I bought this Someone below said it best, if there was an Ombre Leather EDT, this would be it. It's a little more rough than OL, there's a hay note in the mix. It's not bad and it seems to help get the leather accord. Vintage Suede is slightly more masculine than OL. Sillage, projection, longevity are all good. So let's cut the crap. It's a $20 frag and we have to compare it to Ombre Leather. It's not a comparison by choice, it's a comparison because it smells that close. And Ombre Leather is arguably a masterpiece. Soooo $20 for something that smells like a masterpiece with no real shortcomings other than it isn't a 100% clone?... Good all year round, night or day, mostly masculine, probably 25+.

Hype is real on this one. It's similar to OL but different. Sweet, ambery, smooth leather. If you wanna get a feel for the Ombre Leather type of leather fragrances out there, this is a good intro. Not too heavy but the leather is prominent. This is work safe, it can be worn in the spring, cool weather, whatever. It's a versatile fragrance. For $20 its literally a no brainer if you like leather fragrances. I have TF Ombre Leather and its just more brash and has white florals and its a lot denser. This is lighter, airier, but a true leather fragrance on the drydown. It starts off sweeter and dries down to smooth ambery leather. I really like this. I didn't love it at first, it took a few times for me to get into it because it's not so much of a clone as it is inspired by OL, in my opinion. I feel like it stands on it's own and just has similarities to OL. It has an airiness to it, it seems almost like a leather fragrance made for the spring/fall- 50s and 60s seem like the perfect temp for this. Dunno, but I like it. Cremo's best, by a landslide. Buy this. Probably will be discontinued, eventually, like every good release these days.

In Canada, Cremo fragrances aren't the easiest to get but thankfully, I have friends who live here but are from the USA, so when they go home for visits, I always remind them about Cremo and they don't disappoint. I have all but two of the collection now and this is my latest addition along with Distiller's Blend. I wore this as my scent of the day today and dang, it's so freakin' great. My friends also got me the body wash, so I'm doubly blessed. It is similar to Ombre Leather, as others have stated but not quite the same. It also reminds me a lot of Goldfield & Banks' latest addition, Purple Suede but this is still doing it's own thing. It projected very well for the first three to four hours before it started to settle down but I was still smelling it well over 10 hours into the life of the fragrance. It leaves a fantastic trail and is intoxicating when you catch it in the air. This is now my 2nd favorite Cremo, just slightly behind Spice & Black Vanilla. Now, I'm only missing Leather & Oud, Citrus & Mint Leaf... hope my friends can find those for me one day so my collection will be complete.

Cremo shared a more detailed note breakdown in a subscriber email: Top: Black pepper, cardamom, saffron Mid: Violet, patchouli, moss Base: Amber, suede, date, tonka Also, Cremo is a men's brand and this is a fragrance marketed to men. Not sure why it was entered in on Fragrantica as unisex. In any case, what about the scent itself? It's really really good. I have all the rest of the Cremo line and this could be the best of all of them, even giving "Spice and Black Vanilla" a run for its money. It's smooth, sweet, amber-y, leather-y. I wouldn't say it's hugely spicey, the spices are well blended into the suede and amber. Word on the street is that this is a clone, like much of Cremo's fragrances are. This time it's a clone of Ombre Leather. I've never smelled Ombre Leather myself so I can't directly compare, but if you look up the notes for OL you can see a lot of overlap with Vintage Suede. Performance is great, I can spray it on at the start of my work day and still smell it by the end. It's a new cheapie favorite, definitely recommended.

Haven't had a bad experience with Cremo yet. For under $30 you have sweet warm suede leather that has very good performance and I cannot detect any synthetic "turn offs". It's not quite TF Ombre Leather but it's in the ball park for quality. Also the Wife thinks this smells very nice so it's got that going for it. Performance was par excellence for a cologne of this price range with longevity which leans in the long lasting column. I experienced 8 hours + with decent sillage. I might try to layer with TF OL parfum and see what happens. Another Hidden gem and the definition of a great value. Edit: Tried TF Tuscan Leather and can say that may be a closer profile than the Ombre Leather fragrances. Slightly sweet and fruitiness rather than floral notes in Cremo. Regardless, it is a great everyday wear and one of my most complemented scents. Scent 8/10 Performance 8/10 Price 10/10.

Cremo frags can be inconsistent, but man oh man, when they hit they HIT. This is an excellent evening fragrance that smells leathery without being gasoline-y and mature without being old mannish. TF Ombre Leather is one of my favorite fragrances, and though the similarities detected in Vintage Suede absolutely exist, they tend to be over-emphasized in other reviews. The amber is much, much more prominent here than in Ombre Leather and, to my nose, the violet accords are mostly missing. The opening notes of Vintage Suede also seem sweeter, making this a better scent for casual evenings than the formalwear powerhouse that is Ombre Leather. Believe the hype. This is Cremo's best fragrance (with Palo Santo following closely behind) and the quality-to-price ratio here simply can't be topped anywhere else at the moment.

Am I the only one who thinks this smells citrusy? It smells like how spiked Arnold palmer tastes. I'm not saying it smells like tea and lemonade, it doesn't, but the taste is what this smells like. I don't think that makes sense. Honestly one of my favorite fragrances. Much better performer than it's rates on this site. The longevity is really good but for some reason the silliage is especially good. It smelled very mossy when I got it, now it's mellowed down to be leather and what seems to me like citrus. It has a deep undertone but it's very bright on its surface which is what makes me think this works in the spring and summer.

I LOVE This fragrance and I am a woman. I shower with the body wash and just love the sensuousness of it. It is sweet and leathery some wood and oakmoss but just enough. I find this scent intriguing and sexy. Lol I wish my hubby would wear it, but he's an Eternity kinda of guy. He does wear Fahenheit which is my ultimate fav on him, and he will also wear Polo Red and now that I think about it Cremo Vintage Suede is somewhere in between those two. Someone special has a shower date soon! Also love Cremo Amber and Cremo Cypress. They have great affordable bodywash and cologne. I wear the Palo Santo in my hair sometimes.

First off let me start by saying I absolutely love this scent so far. It’s rich, sweet and somewhat powerful. That being said, to my nose I get more of a sweet tobacco from this fragrance. Almost like a rich and fruity pipe tobacco. It starts with the moss being well pronounced but after about 5 minutes or so the moss takes a back seat and then the amber starts to come out. A little later comes the fruity tobacco. I’m guessing that’s supposed to be the suede but it’s a little more spicy to my nose causing it to resemble more of a pipe tobacco. Over all I’m loving it!

I’ve never smelled Ombré Leather so I can’t provide any comparison, however this is a very solid leather fragrance imo. It is a light, ambery sweet leather- very sexy and alluring. This fragrance will shine in cooler weather but is still light enough to be worn on a spring day/night, perhaps even a summer night. Performance is moderate on me (6hrs longevity). Please know that the opening smells a bit synthetic, but after the first 10 minutes this scent is absolute 🔥! Fantastic steal at $22.

i just snagged this for $18 and was pleasantly surprised. I think the opening is too harsh and synthetic, but the dry down is fantastic. But then again, I dont pay too much attention to openings of any fragrance, it's the dry down that matters for me. It's like a more wearable Ombre Leather. It's definitely a masculine scent, not sure why it's listed as for 'men and women'. Very happy with this purchase. edit: I no longer think opening is too harsh....maybe just the initial spray was.

Instantly get a berry sweetness and the leather kicks in more as it goes on....smell doesn't change much but leather becomes more apparent....very similar to a Tom Ford creation and if it made it into a bottle with his name on it you'd be paying 300 more than what cremo is charging. Great value for money. Mature scent and would reccomend you try if you like Tom Ford or leather scents. Update I love it more the 2nd time wearing it such an awesome cheap scent

There is no hiding what this is cloning. Basically, Tom Ford’s Ombré Leather on a budget. I purchased it on Amazon for $20. Great cheapie! I kind of like a little better than the original, to be honest. This comes off a bit fresher with hints of a green earthy vibe. This actually lasts pretty long too. On me, I got through a good part of the day. If you like Ombré Leather, this is definitely worth a check out. 😁

I love this fragrance.like many others have already stated, it is similar to TF Ombre Leather. Of course it doesn't go as deep as TF, nor is it exactly like it (but definitely a pretty decent clone). For less than 25 dollars it far exceeded my expectations. I get 2 hours of good projection and about 6 hours of longevity. If you like leather and amber then I believe this would be a good pickup for you.

This is my new everyday easy reach fragrance. This and the soap are signature scent worthy. For under $30 dollars you really can’t beat it. To me it’s smells like a sweet leather with light oud, and a little bit of amber. It projects well too, because I always get positive comments for hours after spraying it. I’d even dare to call this fragrance Ombré Nomade Light - with only 1/3 of the calories.

I don't think you can do a lot better at around $20. It's pretty darn close to Ombre Leather. To my nose Cremo is a bit lighter, a bit brighter, and a bit fruitier. Longevity is perhaps questionable, on paper TF kinda crushes this, but it also costs a lot more money. The Cremo is accessible, and beautifully done. I'm on the fence with Cremo as a company, but I'm calling this a huge win.

Wonderful. Deep suede. Office safe. Oddly satisfying. As with all Cremo scents it has that barbershop background smell along with the leading scent profile. This one has decent longevity and moderate projection. My top three picks for Cremo are Distillers Blend, Spice and Black Vanilla and Vintage Suede. VS bumped Palo Santo down one notch. Very nice release Cremo! Keep it up!

For the low price of $20, you too can smell like a full grain leather belt! Jokes aside, I do actually love this fragrance. I was passing through the Boothills of Arkansas one time and stopped into a leather working shop. This reminds me of the smell of that place. This just has that smell that fresh cut leather has with a little bit of dampness/earthiness from The oak moss

This is #47 in my "Tour de Fragrance" of 250 fragrances in 250 days, and as many have said, if you like Tom Ford Ombre Leather, this is so damn close at a tenth of the price that you won't care. I've yet to be disappointed with Cremo and have more of their fragrances on the way. Great scents at a ridiculously great price. You simply can't go wrong with this.

This vintage suede CREMO offering here could very well be the best of the CREMO line.. It has a sweet, ambery, oudish, leather, smokey & fruity, I dare to say.. vibe to it...and the smell is quite prominent/delicious & the price is quite miniscule/nutritious.....$18......9.0/scent.... strength/longevity 7.0 🔥🔥a really nice new surprise for once🔥🔥CIAO!👁️👃👁️
