Pros & Cons
- ✅ Absolutely unhinged perfumery... If you like insane rip-your-nose-off leathers, this will be your best friend.
- ✅ The leather in this one truly takes center stage — unapologetically bold and unapologetically animalic... Performance is outstanding.
- ✅ I've actually received several compliments with this which is hard to believe. I honestly think this is one of the best from the house.
- ✅ This stuff is potent and addicting. Has an earthy, chocolaty patchouli and a hint of leather. Really addicted to this stuff.
- ✅ Roomfiller? No. GLOBEFILLER. ... Gets MANY compliments!
- ✅ People really aren't joking when they say Montales are great performers. Bloody hell, this, and my other Montale - Black Aoud - are monstrous. ... Leather Patchouli is definitely dark; quite an animalic mooey leather with a chocolatey patchouli riding atop. Not for the faint of heart.
- ✅ This smells like dirty leather and cocaine! I love it!
- ✅ Top notes are leather and patchouli but the leather quickly fades and the wet green patchouli dominates the scent. ... Great performance. Great scent. Can smell with almost every inhale.
- ✅ You guessed it… Leather, patchouli… and woods. ... A punch to the senses of unapologetic, almost pungent leather; and a dark, rich patchouli similar to straight patchouli essential oils. Very powerful. Very confident.
- ❌ Respectfully, this fragrance is disgusting to me... it starts smelling like potatoes that have gone moldy because you left them in swamp water for a couple weeks.
- ❌ This is possibly the most offensive fragrance on the market. My friend sprayed this once on his arm and I left the room gagging.
- ❌ It starts off with a gasoline smell which may remind cocaine. Not for the faint of heart.
- ❌ The opening is a bit too rough almost animalic for me. It dies down quickly to a warm leather and patchouli.
- ❌ Absolutely unhinged perfumery here. ... Almost every 'normal' person hates this.
- ❌ This is possibly the most offensive fragrance on the market. My friend sprayed this once on his arm and I left the room gagging. A horrible blend of unappealing notes.
- ❌ Respectfully, this fragrance is disgusting to me. ... it starts smelling like potatoes, ... moldy potatoes.
