Along with Ere and Red Leather, this is one of the favorite fragrances of master Paul Kiler, when it comes to personal use. And fleeing from the olfactory pyramid pattern, with its notes of head, body and base, I will repeat the composition the same way it is on the official website of the brand because I found very interesting the list separated by types of ingredients, namely:
Flowers: gardenia, tuberose, ylang-ylang, helichrysum (from the Everlasting family), honeysuckle, Lily, jasmine, cananga (from the ylang-ylang family) and Genet (mentioned in Ere’s composition, which is also known as Spanish Broom and called, in Portuguese, as Esparto, Giesta, among other names).
Fruits: Bergamot, Red Mandarin and Satsuma guava, whose aroma is changeable and begins with nuances of guava and citrus like lemon and orange, going for nuances of jasmine and ending with the lightness of musk. Its aroma lasts for a long time and is widely used for single or mixed fragrance compositions, like this one.
Woods: amberwood and Cotinus (smoke tree), whose essential oil (extracted from the leaves and flowers) has fruity nuances of mango.
Herbal part: patchouli, oakmoss, tobacco and Sage.
Extra notes: benzoin, tonka bean, fossilized amber along with other types of amber, leathers, styrax, musks, and civet.
Did you think it’s too much? What if I told you that the creations of the House usually have an average of 50 elements, some have 80 and even one or another has 150, would you believe?
Let’s talk about the result: oddly enough, this mix of miscellaneous notes hit on my skin with a peculiar aroma, which reminded me a lot of the smell of Amaretto liqueur, which boasts almond aroma. And so it has remained for a long time. I thought there was some alcoholic note in the composition. I believe that this scent is resulting from the smell of Everlasting (caramel + honey + toasted cereal), along with the fragrance of ylang-ylang (between the erotic floral of the Jasmine to the fruity banana). About 3 hours later, the scent becomes rich in various nuances of vanilla, never getting cloying, which I attribute to the presence of the moss and the guava Satsuma.
In the beginning, Gold Leather is more suited to women. But wait for its evolution as it turns into a great unisex perfume. I would say that Gold Leather was made for the day and Red Leather for the night.

What a surprising fragrance! All scents act differently on every person, but mostly for myself, Gold Leather skipped the floral part of the composition and went straight to a nearly gourmand Almond pastry and leather scent immediately. I can smell Jasmine, and rich ylang opening the fragrance up, and a sugared almond sweetness resting upon it, with a raw, golden tobacco as accompaniment. The leather here at this point is clearly discernible, a soft, polished, slightly dry leather, like that of the LV section at a department store. Honestly, I am finding it more & more attractive with each wearing. smelling rich almond pastries wafting in a fine leather goods shop is a very pleasurable experience! The drydown becomes less sweet, and more softly suede oriented. Gold Leather stays closer to the skin as it wears on, and for a holiday time scent, I would highly recommend it! A new experience with leather, to my nose, and might be FB worthy to me, I haven’t yet decided. I have decided it’s gorgeous, and that I’ll wear it all winter!

I somewhat agree. I get a nice fruity leather. Very casual smelling, but unexpected. The name made me expect a more regal leather, but it is much more fitting for every-day wear when you simply want to smell pleasant.

Remember thinking it smelled like a tropical air freshener in a new car 😛 The 3 scents by PK that I’ve tried all have a certain syrupy heaviness to them, very indie smelling, challenging but with good strong leather notes.
