Fruit de La Créativité

This is one of the hidden gems in my fragrance collection. The raspberry opening is sweet and juicy with the most gorgeous rose surrounded by leather and cedar. The orris root adds depth and interest to it in a way I'm still trying to get my nose to understand. It is great value, interesting, moderate lasting, versatile, and it is also smart- think crisp ironed shirt paired with black tapered trousers and boat shoes, business casual and office appropriate. I sprayed a little on my straw sunhat, wore it four days later and it smelt like sweet leather. Also stays on clothing for days. P.S: I adore this fragrance but the cap is just a downer! This really needs to be improved. It also doesn't last on skin for very long: 3-4 hours.

Just got my 100ml bottle of this beauty... Smells delicious! I get fruity leather, like the name promises. Top notes reminded me of an imitation of Oud Ispahan I own, immediately after I felt envelopped in a softer and lighter beautiful cloud. This perfume smells like money, trust me! And literally for a song. It takes me on a slow walk across luxurious galleries, in a baroque palace. Thick velvet tents, mirrors and chandeliers... Maybe I'm still riminescent of Beauty and the Beast Disney movie I watched on tv during Xmas holidays! Not a powerhouse, after less then two hours I've sprayed it I still can get a subtle whiff which nobody would notice. For her and for him, to feel elegant and treat yourself with something special.

A treasure and a steal. Bittersweet and dimensional. Leather; bitter, aromatic peach pit; airy and luminous raspberry. If Byredo Black Saffron is a roar of lipstick and leather, this is Simone de Beauvoir in a tweed suit. Classic, measured, but not conservative. Evokes another time, but uses contemporary language. Smoking is bad for you! But also, this would go great with a cigarette.

To my nose this perfume resembles a lot to Davidoff Leather Blend, except this one is leaning towards feminine maybe because of the raspberry, while Leather Blend, also a unisex, goes a bit more masculine. It's beautiful, niche feeling and the price is incredible, 15 eur for such a beautiful perfume is a steal. I'm testing longevity on my skin now.

Nice. On its own its leaning more feminine because of fruity component, but for me this is missing layering ingredient, used on top of western oud in order to have clone of Tom Ford aTuscan Leather.
