About this fragrance

Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.

Royal Leather by Kilian (2015) is an Oriental Floral that opens with black tea and hawthorn, a dry, slightly bitter green veil before the heart. The heart is a true leather accord, smooth and animalic, softened by heliotrope’s powdery almond facet. The base grounds the composition with agarwood (oud) and patchouli, adding depth and a smoky-woody resonance. The main accords—leather (100%), floral (82%), oud (78%), animalic (73%), green (72%), patchouli (67%)—show a leather-dominant scent with significant floral and oud support, and a notable animalic undercurrent.

This is a collector’s leather: not a raw, tannery-style hide but a polished, almost floral leather with a green top and a woody-animalic base. It suits wearers who appreciate vintage-style leathers with a modern Oriental twist and who are comfortable with animalic and oud notes. Unisex in character, it leans formal or evening, though confident wearers may find it works in cooler daytime settings. For those building a leather wardrobe, Royal Leather offers a distinct bridge between floral and animalic leather genres.

中文簡介

Royal Leather 係 Kilian 2015 年推出嘅東方花香調,以紅茶同山楂開場,帶出微苦而乾爽嘅綠色氣息。核心係皮革同天芥菜,皮革柔滑而帶動物感,天芥菜嘅粉質杏仁香氣令佢無咁硬朗。基調用沉香(烏木)同廣藿香,加深木質煙燻感。主調比例顯示皮革主導(100%),花香(82%)同沉香(78%)緊隨,動物感(73%)同綠色(72%)點綴,廣藿香(67%)收尾。

呢支係收藏級皮革:唔係raw皮廠味,而係打磨過、近乎花香嘅皮革,頂部綠色,底部木質動物感。適合鍾意復古皮革但接受現代東方 twist、唔怕動物感同沉香嘅人。中性偏向,正式或晚間場合最啱,有信心嘅人涼爽日間都用得。
