Falcon Leather

A leather fragrance inspired by a falconers’ gloves. In Falcon Leather, Guichard utilises Birch Tar sourced from Finland to explore the powerfully smoky qualities of leather. The opening of Falcon Leather is characterised by a diffusive cloud of smoke accented by glimmers of sharp piquancy. Raw earthy smokiness is pushed forward by saffron in the opening that is counterbalanced by the rounded sweetness of cistus labdanum and benzoin in the dry-down. In wearing Falcon Leather, I am reminded of the idiom ‘less is more’. For me, the beauty of the fragrance really lies in its simplicity. By keeping the composition rather streamlined, Guichard not only allows the quality of the raw materials to speak for themselves, but equally serves to keep the focus solely on leather throughout the life of the fragrance. The result is a fragrance that is the perfect exemplar of leather. Expert craftsmanship and an unpretentious approach to perfumery are the foundational bedrock of Matière Premiere. This is what I have grown to love about the brand. Guichard doesn’t attempt to hind behind an unnecessarily complex note breakdown, or flamboyant packaging. Rather the collection is a showcase and celebration of his pure talent, and I am keeping a keen eye on the brand. From an unrestrained animalic leather, that evolves to a plush suede like finish, Falcon Leather is a beautiful exploration of leather that could be loved by anyone and could easily be layered with any simple fruit-forward or floral fragrance if you so wanted to. In terms of performance, Falcon Leather lasts 6-8 hours on my skin, with a moderate-heavy sillage that drops closer to skin around the 3 hour mark. The fragrance is unisex leaning masculine, and incredibly versatile too. I really could see myself reaching for this year round, and for any occasion.

Falcon Leather is one of the most interesting Matière Première scents, and truly grabs my attention from the beginning. Dark, dry and quite beguiling, FL is an unusual take on the leather note. It has a very different vibe to say, Grès Cabochard, another leather scent I enjoy - Cabochard is a worn, brown leather couch, comforting and familiar in contrast to the smoky danger of FL. Smoky, ambery and earthy, FL is unisex, more conceptual and artistic than wearable. FL reminds me of a biker bar - dimmed lighting, worn black leather, a haze of cigarette smoke and spilled whiskey. FL opens with a realistic, dry, smoky leather accord. The leathery opening is bolstered by a slightly sweet ambery accord thanks to the saffron and labdanum, and the birch tar makes its presence felt very quickly. There is a hint of spice too. Overall, it is earthy and bittersweet, smooth despite the smokiness. It becomes slightly peppery as it develops, with birch tar as the dominant note. This makes for a nose-tickling combination. The amber lasts, giving a balsamically sweet undertone as it dries down, thanks in part to the benzoin. The use of oud here is inspired - I don't always love oud, but here it is dry and woody rather skankily animalic, contributing to the leather accord in the drydown. FL is fairly linear - smoky, resinous leather until it fades. Sillage is good, and longevity is excellent. Interesting and creative, there is much to appreciate here. One of my favourites from Matière Première. A must try for leather lovers, this could be a successor of sorts to the ingenious Bvlgari Black. 4.5/5.

Tuscan Leather, Godolphin, Ombre Leather, all but more delightful with a twist and a hideous opening, but the dry down is one of the best leathers ever. I don't get Terroni, but I do get his Cuoium (Orto Parisi) a bit. This is one of the best leathers out there, but it drives me mad that I have to cross reference it to their Crystal Saffron, which I actually like more. I have both; Crystal Saffron and Falcon Leather FBs, so I can't see them as being redundant, although this has a really hideous opening that does make me think of an old used Falcon Leather Glove, but it does go away within 20 minutes or so, and can only be smelled close-up where it nearly singes your nostrils and attempts to force you to projectile vomit. But wait....it really gets better enough to wait for it... Masculine leaning, I would not want to smell this on my other half, which is rare for me to say, as I don’t like putting a gender to fragrances, however this can be layered with something softer, which a woman could pull off. Needless to say, unless you love the fragrances this is likened to, it's not a safe blind buy, and is not office safe, the only times of year I'd not wear it is in high heat. The only fragrance I'd say that beats this is B683 Extrait.

I like leather. I like that as an animalic note it is oddly considered one of the more pedestrian and normal notes. Possibly because it is so common in everyday. I really like leather as a note and this fragrance though no mention of the note of leather, does have the lovely note of birch tar; and yes! That note is manipulated brilliantly to represent that worn, weather beaten and rough leather. This is not a leather treated and cosseted to become a jacket or fine piece of clothing. This is a leather that was created for a functional item, built for strength and longevity. And the representation of the fragrance is just that. It is a scent built for longevity and strength. It harkens back to stronger more masculine scents of the 70s and early 80s. There's a hairy-chestedness to this, a macho man callous-handed working man of the old school. There's an odd nutty feature in this though, I can sense a creamy nut element. This is not enough to put me off it though as its only ever present when I smell this off a test strip, on skin that 'nutty' element is not so present, on skin this is a warm brusque leather. On skin there a lush smoke and leather, there's a sweetness and dry presence. But it remains very masculine and big.

Matiere Premiere - Falcon Leather The first Harrods Exclusive by the brand. This is a stunning birch tar and you can feel a hint of oud it’s either authentic or a quite believable accord. The fragrance to be honest pretty much skips the top notes and goes into the heart and dry down. Giving you a genuine impression of sniffing supple leather of the finest quality. As I’ve said in my review of the extrait they are similar slightly but wear totally differently the edp is the bad boy in a biker jacket and the extrait is all suited up. So think of it as this Batman and the extrait is the Bruce Wayne. Years after sampling Falcon Leather it remained in my mind and luckily I hadn’t bought a bottle for a while and waited for the hype to pass. Still loved it even after getting Oud Seven I enjoyed this still! So when the extraits came out and I sniffed the extrait I realized the edp is where my heart belongs. Snapped a bottle up quickly. Tonight is a summer night but I’m staying and enjoying this one a little early this year. Total stunner! Scent 10/10 It’s considered by many to be a modern leather masterpiece. Sillage 8.5/10 Value 10/10 if at discounters! Can be had for around $140 for 100ml

The old feminine floral leathers like Jolie Madame and Cabochard were never really my thing. I think I was a gourmand girl in waiting 🙃...then assuming I'd love the fabled Chanel’s Cuir de Russie from the Exclusives I found it was a poopy 😫 on me. But...I realised I love the birch tar chord, plain, somewhat thinned by lots of air under its wings, basically unadorned, woody and outdoorsy. It was sampling the beautiful Aventus when I had my epiphany a couple of years ago, but like Tuscan Leather and Ombré Leather, it belongs with the guys. I thought, that beautiful birch note is just treated too mannish for me personally. I know it became associated with ‘leather’ because of tanning, yet to me it comes from the forest. I’ve had the sample set from Matiere Premiere for a year, giving Falcon a distracted sniff or two, still thinking it’s still too masculine. This winter has rolled around and I finally gave it a proper wear. I’ve now got the teensy bottle, probably won’t size up, but I will ALWAYS want to be able smell this. It is stunning. I see the falcon’s wings, and Winters smoke, but not a glove.

Oh Man, it's simply beautiful. Falcon Leather is a marvel of harmonically co-existing dualities. Furthermore, Aurelien Guichard expertly transformed his star, plant-derived ingredient into a fully satisfying, well-rounded leather note that is not devoid of animalic undertones. The fragrance opens with a robust, virile leather accord that is bound to turn heads: the birch tar shines in all its phenolic, smoky/woody glory, its wildness paradoxically both tamed and accentuated by the warmth of saffron and the leathery beauty of labdanum; meanwhile, its charred woodiness is boosted by mystical oud and earthy patchouli, with some clove-like spicy touches. The composition significantly mellows as soon as the balsamic sweetness of the amber accord emerges: lactonic benzoin and creamy vanilla interact with the ever-present labdanum, transforming the initially raw leather into buttery, sophisticated suede. The fragrance evolves from primordially carnal to deliciously sensual, making its long journey on the skin thoroughly exciting. Sillage is strong and with good longevity.

I wouldn’t call this having the Tuscan leather note, it’s not as harsh. The leather is front and centre and the smokiness lingering in the background with a slight sweetness from the saffron and benzoin. In the late dry down I get reminded of Davidoff leather blend, this is very similar, if leather blend actually has a steering leather note in it. Great stand alone leather scent but I’ve also been using it as a base to other frags for layering as it works well in adding some leather and smokiness. Performance is above average. It’s a great fragrance but if you have tons of leather centric fragrances you really won’t be missing too much if you pass on this one. 7/10 Update: Okay shouldn’t write reviews so early into getting a fragrance. Wearing this a week straight now and yeah really loving it. Doesn’t remind me much of leather blend anymore. In short, bubble gum, birch tar, leather. Beauty blend. 9/10

Very similar to Tuscan Leather, minus the raspberry note. I don't find this animalic, and the saffron is not prevalent. It's super leathery, smoky, with incense in the background. Very linear, which I don't mind in this case. Longevity is pretty great. I can still smell it at the end of the day, and I might be nose blind to it, but other people have told me it's strong many, many hours after applying, and I'm pretty light with application (2-3 sprays). I think if you're familiar with either Ombre Leather or Tuscan Leather you could safely blind buy this. I wanted a super leather dominant fragrance to round out my collection, and having recently tried Encens Suave, I was curious about this one, and not disappointed. Totally worth a shot. Scent 9/10 Longevity: 10/10 Projection: 8/10 Full bottle? Yes. If you're looking for a staple, go-to leather scent in your lineup, this is a solid bet.

I really love how saffron-forward this perfume smells on me! Yes, it's primarily a leather fragrance, but there's a gentle elegance and complexity here that makes Falcon Leather stand out from the pack. I find that it has nuclear longevity on skin and especially on clothing. In spite of being so potent, this is a leather perfume that avoids treading into the unfortunately all-too-common pitfalls of smelling obnoxious and/or overly busy. The innate luxury of saffron as a spice just elevates the experience of wearing Falcon Leather into a real treat for the senses. The particular leather accord utilized here is soft, supple, creamy, and smooth. I think a person of any gender presentation could wear this perfume with comfort and confidence. It's well suited to cold weather. While it does smell niche, I feel that it remains palatable to the masses and wears nicely in mixed company.

When I want to smell like a Kazakh falconer hunting horseback on a Mongolian steppe, I reach for Falcon Leather. The way that each of the notes work to make a heady and dank leather accord is so rewarding, both in terms of meeting appellative expectations and as an example of perfume artistry. The primal birch tar is perfectly complemented by the saffron and oud so as not to be too overpowering. The labdanum and benzoin add just a tease of sweetness, and once the tar has eased off a touch this becomes so comforting. Like other MP fragrances, it smells fresh, organic, and crafted with high-quality ingredients that make it sophisticated and elegantly animalic but not dirty. Essential for the collection of any leather enthusiast; for anyone wanting to smell smoky but not campfire smoky; or for escapism when your stupid government won't let you keep an actual falcon.

My first exposure to the house of Matiere Premiere and... it was love at first smell. One of the most authentic, realistic, smoothest leathers I’ve ever smelled. You really feel like you’re walking into a fine leather store, a boot or saddle store. The best part is that it doesn’t have the headache inducing sweetness of the Tom Ford leathers. For me, the saffron/labdanum note (masquerading as leather) opens so nicely and is just so pleasing. As others have mentioned and the house is known for, the leather is linear and just lasts. I get 8-10 hours minimum. To date, the feedback I’ve received is not asking if I’m wearing a frag, but where the leather is that smells so good. That’s a winner for me. This one is an all day/all season for me. Not to dark or heavy to wear in summer and not to heavy to wear during the day at the office.

Just tried this one so this is a first impression, but this is a nice rugged smoky leather with a semi creamy background. In the same family as gucci guilty absolute but not the same profile. If you aren't a leather lover (I am) this is not for you, but if you like leather forward scents this would be a nice edition. It is also very smoky especially in the dry down, in a ashy sense, not in a tobacco leaf sense, which I again dig but not everyone will. It smells of quality, and is full masculine. One thing I like about the profile is it doesn't seem to be a massive projector, so you wont be bombing the room, but I am detecting a nice consistent scent bubble. I think the name suits this fragrance. Can't comment on longevity yet as it's a first impression but I will update. Edit: longevity is good, I get around 8 hours.

I consider this fragrance a masterpiece, it is definitely not suitable for mass appeal or blind buying. It represents a man overflowing with testosterone, powerful, dark, and intensely masculine. It has a character that is both complex and straightforward at the same time. It evokes a man who drives a Range Rover, usually wears black suits, is deeply devoted to his work and family, yet remains tough, charismatic, and sharp-edged. To me, it also recalls the scent of the leather seats in an expensive luxury car. It may not appeal to everyone, but I believe women who are drawn to strongly masculine attitudes will absolutely love this fragrance. It is luxurious, smoky, dark, and smells like a man who means what he says, someone who dominates the room the moment he enters, commanding respect without a word.

Being a fanboy of Aurélien Guichard, discovering that he created Matière Première was pure joy, his own perfume house! At the time, I was on the hunt for a leather fragrance, as my partner was very much into that scent profile. When I first smelled Falcon Leather, I was overwhelmed, it is one of the strongest perfumes I have ever smelled. And it is beautiful. The closest scent to gorgeous, luxurious leather I have ever experienced, leather perfection. The way it smells is smooth, dark, soft, and polished, with added smokiness and just a hint of sweetness. The way he blended the notes is close to witchcraft, so much talent. Sexy, seductive, and powerful. That’s how it makes me feel, and this perfume gives me confidence. Thank you for such a beautiful creation.

Oh, my! Dark, brutal, intense, yet exquisitely refined, Falcon Leather needs the right wearer. Not everyone has the gravitas personality to pull it off. Fortunately for me, my husband wears it fabulously well. (And if he didn't, I would.) The birch tar note is vivid, which can be a bit polarizing for people unfamiliar with or not a fan of its industrial traits. Falcon Leather is the most aggressive during the first hour or two. Once the birch tar settles, the labdanum, benzoin, and oud emerge, creating something more alluring and sensual. At this stage, it’s the olfactory equivalent of a strong, silent type of person whose intense gaze can captivate the object of their interest with only a look – no posturing, peacocking, or conversation required.

I normally agree with most people descriptions of fragrances, but want to clarify a few things that are solely of my opinion. This is not a heavy leather fragrance. The leather here is airy and is supporting the birch, which is the much louder note. This has no relation to Tuscan Leather at all. Leather can be used in many different ways, but this is certainly not TL-like. It’s a unique fragrance that has some smokiness, buts it’s a soft and delicate smokiness, not a loud and screeching smokiness like say Interlude Man. Performance is outstanding. This house is doing great things when it comes to the ingredients of their fragrances, which is why people are flocking to them in the community.

Part of me wants to give a bad review just to gatekeep this fragrance. Falcon Leather is absolutely stunning, to qoute my barber "you smell like a million dollars". It is one of the very very few perfumes I have that consistently gets compliments. I have been stopped walking down the road, I cannot leave the house with this on without asking someone asking me what I am wearing. For me, I get this sexy, woodsy slightly slightly sweet leather fragrance. Silllage is enormous without being overbearing - its very much a "money talks, wealth whispers" vibe, people can smell you and they love it - but you're not giving anyone a headache. 10/10 my signature scent forever.

This stuff is good!!! Falcon Leather just made me feel like I don't have to desperately search for a leather-resembling scent anymore. I have tried many leather scents, among which: - Maison Crivelli, Cuir Infrarouge; - Naomi Goodsir, Cuir Vélours; - Jo Malone, Bronze Wood & Leather; - Cuir Beluga; - Chanel, Le Lion. I find "Falcon Leather" the most realistic out of the leather fragrances. Maison Crivelli did a good job at creating another leather and saffron fragrance, but Materière Prèmiere simply projects better on me. If you prefer Maison Crivelli, any recent MC will do, as Cuir Infrarouge, Oud Maracuja and Safran Secret all smell extremely similar.

This is the fragrance equivalent of Jack Nicholson's speech in A Few Good Men. You’re telling the world you go your own way, and that you don’t give a damn about their herd-hugging opinions, and they respect you more for it! Did Jimmy Hendrix ask permission before he launched into Voodoo Child? Did Mike Tyson apologize before he entered the ring? You already know the answer! How can you be remembered if you never left a mark? A scar? A heartbreak? This is a legendary scent! So dripping with masculinity you’ll send those Creed Aventus boys into anaphylactic shock!!! Give it time to seduce you. An absolute Sigma Male masterpiece of a fragrance!!!

This is a beautiful leathery smoked wood. And yes, I’d put the accords in that order. The main note to my nose and off my skin is the burnt tar and woodiness. Like leather gloves you wore near a fire. The main smell is gonna be the fire. And it’s tempered with a wonderful sweet amber from the resinous labdanum and olibanum. Maybe my favorite “leather” as it doesn’t smell like the oiled leather in others. Even better, Fragrance world has clone this as “Mystic Leather”. It’s a bit rougher which makes it more “leathery” or saffron forward but overall stunningly close at a fraction of the price. Still dominated by smokey wood and resins.

Even though everyone is claiming this as "birch" fragrance, it really is closer to Russian leather type of scent (birch tar, styrax, nutmeg type of accord). PDM Carlisle is very close cousin to Falcom Leather, where PDM has a few more naturals and more twists and turns but MP is easier to wear (easier but not easy as this is a leather scent in the traditional sense), Well blended and has great performance. If you are on the market for a modern leather scent, look no further. I personally settled for PDM Carlisle as I find it more complex and interesting but Falcon Leather was very close second.

This is a very elegant leather fragrance with a Russian leather accord (birch tar). It gives you both sides of leather: the full-grain textured leather is given by the Ciste Labdanum Andalusia from Spain 🇪🇸 and the smooth velvety side is given by the Benzoin Absolute from Laos 🇱🇦 The benzoin is very high quality and gives it that ambery vanilla-like warmth ♨️ which adds to the elegance of the formulation. The birch tar from Finland 🇫🇮 is the star of the show and it gives you that smokey aspect of a high quality leather accord. 🪵💼🌫️ A video review is also available on my YT ▶️

Three months update: I have reviewed the scent profile previously (down below), and I still absolutely love the scent profile, however after using it for a few months I have concluded that the overall performance is very weak! Projection, sillage and longevity are all very weak for an eau de parfum!👎🏻📉 However the scent profile is simply amazing (it's in my top 5 of 100+ leather fragrances) and the only way to solve the poor overall performance is to simply over spray, which is why I recently bought a second 100ml bottle. 💸 A video review is also available on my YT ▶️

Oh yeah. I'm gettin a bottle of this asap. This is smooooth, slightly smoky leather (derived from the oud and benzoin). The birch tar here I think is what really adds finesse to the leather. Its not overly heavy birch tar as you usually find that just makes a smoky mess of things. This is perfectly executed with the suede leather smell to create a solid and very linear manly scent, unlike any leather scent I've smelled. ADP Leather is a super realistic leather, but this with the oud base is just so wearable anytime anywhere. It's a yes from me. Well done Mr. Guichard!

Guess what? I am a woman and definitely girly and i have fallen in love with Falcon Leather 🫣🤭🤭🤭 To me, this is sultry, sexy and naughty and intensely seductive...what’s wrong with me? This is a fine quality leather but also warm and soft and the leather itself has absorbed the scent of a woman who wears quality perfume. It’s embedded in there...oh my gosh, it is sooooooo good!!! And the longevity is eternallllllllllllllll!!!!!! Definitely sample first, not a safe blind buy! Yeah, it has a masculine edge but but but... i love it so i don’t care...

This is a gorgeous fragrance. My husband is on the Leather & Hyde Council of America, works in the leather & hyde business, and was skeptical, to say the least. M. Guichard has triumphed with his Falcon Leather and even won over my husband. My husband avoids leather fragrances because they never “ring true” or sometimes “feel cheap.” Not so with this vegetal-leather, birch tar scent. It manages to feel true to the world and elegant. I agree with Nathan_jamesj review below, so I won’t add more. Definitely a unique house & one to experience.

*This my honest opinion* I hesitated multiple times before writing a review cuz I wanna gate-keep this masterpiece at all cost, but cmon I realized it’s silly xO Smokey leather done in the most perfect way. There is that note that keeps it (cold / fresh / metallic, not a regular warm one) Simply, when I smell it I keep saying one little mistake could ruin the whole thing, however this is leather perfection. Good performance, mind-blowing in the cold weather. My first Matiere Premiere fragrance, definitely going to explore more!

This is hands down one of the best-smelling leather fragrances I've put my nose on. It exudes quality and sophistication. There's a sense of TF Ombre Leather, but with toned-down floral notes. The smokiness and oud have been dialed up, while a subtle sweetness from the saffron balances things out. If you’re into leather fragrances with a smoky leather accord, this is a must try, easily one of the best on the market. Use cases would be limited for me personally, however, as a leather fragrance I have to rate it a solid 9/10.

this is crazy strong. i bought a bottle but ended up giving it to my partner. one can smell it lingering in the room after she applied it with a strong trail wherever she goes. on the way to the lift, in the lift and if i leave the house 30 minutes after her, still in the lift. on clothes for days, even after washing. it is nuts. it is beast mode beast mode beast mode! in terms of smell, there is a lot of birch tar and a lot of saffron. it almost vibrates in the nostrils. semi-sweet oudy-saffron drydown. i love it.

When I smelled it for the first time, I was like it reminds me of something I have. One hour later, I realised it reminded me of Gucci Intense Oud, it has similar structure (saffron, Labdanum, Agarwood, Leather). Then, much later during the day I found out that both were created by same perfumer Aurélien Guichard. Although they are not identical (approx 85% similar). If you don't own one, then I would go for Falcon Leather, However if you have Gucci Intense Oud, then I don't think you are missing out a lot.

It opens subtle sweet, resinous, smokey and creamy. Followed by soft leather suede with a hint of spice that feels sophisticated. Yes, it smells like real leather without any leather notes in it. If that’s not genius, I don’t what is. It’s warm, intense, a little moody and very bold. Just like Encens Suave and Parisian Musc, I get more than 10 hours from Falcon Leather and the sillage and projection is great as usual. Perfect for a cloudy day or an chill evening sipping wine. (I might just do this tonight)

Yippee ki yay. Think saddle leather warmed by the beating September Sonoran sun. The Saguaros extending upwards, arms outstretched towards the blue sky. You catch a slight scent from the mesquite gum you failed to wipe off your saddle. Late season Jasmine down yonder by the watershed as the monsoons roll in from the southwest. Tom of Finland back at the Double D Ranch. Tiny Tim's Tip Toe Thru' the Tulips hauntingly rotating from the Decca phonograph. Oh brother this stuff is sexy.

This is the best leather fragrance EVER in my opinion. It puts fragrances like Ombré Leather, Tuscan Leather, and Cuir Intense in bodybags. And the amount of compliments I receive when I wear this is crazy. At least one person asking me the name of what I’m wearing every time I wear this. The saffron and birch tar combo make this so sexy and irresistible. Most certainly a masculine scent and not for anyone under 30 years old. An easy 10/10 for me...

Harika bir deri parfümü. Deri güzelleşmiş. Bazi parfumlerde oldugu gibi tek başına sahnede degil. Son derece sık. Safran uzun süre hissediliyor. Ud ise düşük bir sesle eşlik ediyor. Oldukça güçlü bir kalıcılık var. Bunun extrakt olanı biraz daha güçlü ama asıl farklilik ud amber gibi alt notaların biraz daha baskın olmasi. Ikisi her ne kadar ayni parfum olduklarını iddia etselerde ekstrakt biraz daha sert. Konforlu olan ise bu parfum.

Elegant ambery leather fragrance that is built around a Russian leather accord (birch tar). It is warm, elegant, and very very ambery (as the labdanum with the benzoin give you an amber accord). I'd say the Extrait version is more of a leather fragrance and this one is more of an amber fragrance. I have both but I prefer the Extrait, but they're both rather linear. A video review and comparison is available on my YT ▶️

Modern "leather-ish" scent where incomplete leather accords are used to make it more wearable and approachable. Do not expect a pungent rough and tumbled cloying leather here: instead a sweetened soft leather emerges (with labdanum and birch being the back bone with maybe some olibanum and sweetness coming form combo of saffron and vanillic benzoin). Lasts forever and dry down is the best part!!!

Despite the given name, don’t take this fragrance as a leather forward scent. Though it has a nuanced leather accord to it, its mainly heavy in birch which gives it a rugged and heavy scent profile. Also, to my nose, Falcon Leather smells boozy as well, similar to a whirlwind clubbing experience; its weirdly intoxicating. Smells very refined and appealing, but definitely not a safe blind buy!

Dark, rich, sticky, smoky, leather perfume. Quite linear: the leather note permeates through the life of the perfume with little change, except perhaps that it gets slightly less spicier and slightly more balsamic as it dries. Incredible longevity and projection - this literally lasted for 8+ hours off about two sprays. Really good leather perfume but it does require you to like this style.

I thought I would hate it based on the notes but to my surprise I love it. I honestly don’t care that is masculine leaning cause it’s so warm and soft on my skin I just can’t resist. It’s dark, mysterious, raw and soft at the same time. I layered it with Radical Rose by accident and it’s heaven! If I smell this on a guy it’ll drive me crazy. So, guys this is your sign if you are wondering.

Falcon Leather is a masterpiece in leather, amber and oud. The quality of the ingredients are so very evident with every whiff. I adore this on my husband. I also wear this and layer it with Le Labo Neroli 36 along with more vanilla forward scents. This fragrance feels rich and luxurious while still being super sexy. I find this to be beast mode so I always go lightly on the trigger.

The most perfect gritty fragrance. Hubby tried it on yesterday. We did not leave the bedroom for 5 hours. Yes, it’s that good. Hot asf! Performance: phenomenal easily 7-8 hours. Silage is cloud like and beautiful. Price is up there but reasonable for the best leather scent I’ve ever smelled. Oh, and this is so much sexier than Tuscan Leather by Tom Ford. 🔥

Bold, dry, bitumen-type leather fragrance. Opening smells like roadworks with added steamroller smoke. Dry down is still bold but becomes slightly sweeter and warmer with the benzoin. It’s dark, moody, and totally worth two sprays (no more) if you’re going to a death metal concert, or planning a satanic ritual in the front room. 10/10.

As soon as I smelled this at ScentBar I knew I had to have it. Wow. Creamy dark leathery birch tar, saffron, resinous benzoin. This is simply incredible. To me it shares some similarities to Tuscan Leather and Nouveau Monde by Louis Vuitton. Extremely classy smelling. One of the best things I’ve smelled this year. 9.6/10

If testosterone had a smell it might be this... just straight up leather and smoke, but done in a way that it brings forward that saffron heart and doesn’t get acrid in any way. Not unpleasant to wear at all but might be a bit surprising to people upon first impressions. Really good if you’re looking for a “manly” scent

Awesome take on leather! Needed few days to get all about Falcon. First it was Ombre Leather DNA all over it but it's much much more than that! Like it came from Maybach factory with their new car. Nothing heavy or unwearable,sillage comes in waves,very gentlemanly scent. All their fragrances are 80 - 92% natural.

Such a great Smokey wood and leather frangrance. I have very mixed feelings on the oil paint smell of many leather fragrances but that’s not present here at all. This is up there with Oud for Greatness as best bold cold weather scents. Only issue is figuring out when to wear it as it’s too much for any workplace.

Reminds me of Ombrè leather but thicker and less floral. Don't understand who says this is 'unwearable' ; this is definitely not challenging and very smooth and well blended. It's a strong performer though, don't overspray in enclosed spaces. Very masculine scent profile that will fit a specific type of guy.

Very very good💯. Unlikey anything else I ever tried. Difficult to define but certainly a nice saffran and not as leathery but in a good way. Definitely worth the price given that it has a good longevity. Definitely masculine, in my view you can wear it all year around. Signature worthy.

After spraying it on, I was like, nothing special, just leather. But after a while all the other notes shows up, and it just becomes a pleasant and comfortable smell. It turns into such a pleasant smell that, I sprayed it on before I went to bed. I’m glad a bought a full bottle!
