AllSaints, the British fashion brand synonymous with leather jackets and industrial chic, expands its fragrance line with Shoreditch Leather EDP, launched in 2024. Named after the iconic East London neighborhood, this scent aims to bottle the creative, gritty energy of the area. Perfumer Gabriela Chelariu crafts a unisex leather fragrance that balances soft florals with smoky, woody depth. Shoreditch Leather opens with a surprising twist: rosewater and saffron over a crisp elemi note. The heart leans into a supple leather accord, jasmine, and sandalwood, while the base anchors with vetiver, patchouli, and amber. It’s a departure from the brand’s earlier Incense City, offering a more approachable yet still edgy profile. This EDP is positioned as a versatile signature scent for those who want a leather fragrance that doesn’t shout. With moderate sillage and a price range of $65 to $177, it’s accessible for a niche-leaning scent. Below, we break down every aspect of Shoreditch Leather, from its notes to performance and value.
