Indisch Leder

Translating to indian leather, it doesn't really convey any typical indian facets nor an interesting leather accord. It does that saffrony leather vibe with a really sharp boozy vibe in the opening but soon degenerates into generic oriental territory. Poorly thought out orientals tend to have a sweaty musty pungent character that really bothers me against the heaps of sweet ambery facets in them, that's pretty much what I get from this one. Lots of amberwoods compounds, synthetic oud, blended with vanillic sweet facets. Definitely sample first and probably only if you enjoy that really hefty generic synthetic oud vibe

This smells like a new-bought leather sofa or something similar. None of the Wiener Blut scents were interesting for me. Maybe it's because they are all unisex and lack femininity.

I never gave them more time than a few minutes to develop, so I thought maybe I owe the bunch of "wiener blut" a chance. but also with some hours wearing it, Indisch Leder actually IS a generic masculine, I found. the opening promises a spicy leather, which completely fades and leaves you alone with no more than a base. smells like they forgot to make the perfume a perfume? it shares some similarities with "straight to heaven". also not totally bad, but not worth spending much money&thoughts on it. the other releases seem aswell a bit undecided between something they apparently imagined would sell and something that would be interesting stuff (florentiner f.e. is a stronger take on a classical cologne- nice, but unedgy- there are so many out there, that smell even better and are not that expensive, over € 150 is a lot for a mediocre juice I find) . a pity! how much would I have liked to write that I found a glorious viennese drunken elephant exhaling the spices he ate. come on, viennese blood is not that boring!

Partially disappointing stuff. Inidisch Leder smells of saffrony birch-tar and booze to slowly turn into a moderately potent woodyamber drydown that while not being as suffocating as this aromachemicals often tend to be, it's still not enough to preserve the fragrance from a disappointing evolution. The core accord is pretty nice but the whole composition feels overall weak and a bit predictable. Smells like a tamed down Tuscan Leather (with plum instead of raspberry) mixed up with a Byredo. Not completely unsuccessful but neither exciting. Barely nice. Rating: 6-6.5/10

it is very dark and very alcoholic when it dries down, it gives the essence of agar wood and allot of cognac. very masculine & very interesting but im afraid to buy it and wear it cause honestly i feel that i'll smell like a drunk man! dunno how they smell exactly as i just feel that. it smells allot of cognac.

Comes quite floral in the opening and is very rich in the lavender note. Then there is a hint of the Orient hidden behind the florals. If you principally like the scents from the Amouage line but feel they are too cloying, you should give this one a try.
