To my nose it smells very similar to Sycodemore and Encre Nior with metalic touch.

Smells nothing like TF- TL. It’s pungent and off putting to the average nose. However, it does smell like the inside of a cheap, very cheap (p)leather purse if that helps.

@jazz.love,
Sorry, but Babbs is a joke. I don’t take anyone who says they can clone every single fragrance out there, using only a few ingredients, seriously.

I don’t detect the leather note at all to be frank and there is none listed for that matter. The dry down is completely a mix of amber and violet(floral). The comparison to TF TL is quite far fetched and i think the comparison to even Chrome legend is streaky at best as well.
On a separate note, the first blast is as expected a melange of scents. After 5 minutes the violet and amber settle down to take eminence. Longevity is fine going at 6 to 7 hours, silage is strong for the first two hours and then settles down after three hours. It is as the name suggests, decidedly “Italian” in its overall performance. I do not like pure amber scents, but the composition of this one makes it a tad different. I liked it and will continue to use for day and evening wear!

This is more of an odor. It’s really strong and smells heavily of something kind of off-putting. Maybe this goes into Kouros territory, not that it smells like it, but you know something pungent that could be from another country or culture that just doesn’t sit well to my nose. I can’t get any scent relation other than old paper or something. Sorry Armaf, I love many of your fragrances, but this one just isn’t there for me yet. Maybe it will grow on me.

As entertaining Babbs Collection is, he has a bad sense of smell! So many fragrances he called ‘clones’ don’t smell nearly similar. This is not a clone of Tuscan Leather and those blind buying this thinking it is, don’t! Don’t believe Babbs for any other reviews too if you’re blind buying, do your research. Not saying it’s a bad frag., just saying it isn’t a clone. It does smell ‘similar’ to Chrome Legend.

There is no leather in this!
It is a very very dry (violet and sage ) Italian-style cologne. It is like Chrome Legend, as has been stated. Why they would emulate that is beyond me. The real thing is the same price as this. It is a chemical, astringent smell and unpleasant to me. I do not get leather in this at all.
I gifted it. I almost gave it to my father, but I did not want it smell it again.
Smell 1/10 It is just not my style at all.
Projection 7/10 It is loud to my nose.
Longevity I do not know. I showered quickly.
Presentation 9/10 The bottle is beautiful. Great sprayer, like all Armafs. Very nice looking.

Not sure if I like this one.. Does anyone else feel it smells like grandma’s purse? Lipstick and leather? Is this what this is supposed to smell like? Blind bought it because many reviews here and elsewhere said it smells like Tuscan Leather. Not having tried Tuscan leather either, i was pretty unsure of what to expect.. To my nose this one’s really feminine. Does anyone else second that or am i wrong here?
Edit: Gave it a couple of wears and I am starting to really appreciate this juice. Has a Brut-ish dry down with spicy (Star Anise?) undertones. The opening is not something i am really a fan of but past the 30 min. mark this is really wonderful.

Ledlight I have 6 armaf fragrance and all last a log time and great smell
Andrei68 – :
can someone here tells me about longevity and sillage is it worth to spend $50 on ebay,because i know that perfumes from ARMAF are just a water because scent last less then 30 sec.

This smells more similar to azzarro chrome legend, but better and less metallic and synthetic. I brushed this fragrance off too fast, but wearing it , it does have a very appealing scent. I could see this being a compliment getter. Its a very generic safe scent for sure, but done well. Its fruity, a tad spicy, has sweetness and freshness.

Italiano Uomo is not a clone of TF TL and smells nothing like it. To get the correct scent that is very similar to TM TL, you need to purchase a bottle of Italiano Nero Uomo which is in a mat black bottle with a silver top and it is nearly double the price of Italiano Uomo. Don’t waste your money on this.
masahira – :
I Have to agree with @wizzdooom this is a fresh smell my bottle does not smell like TL at all

@Wizzdoom
no buddy TF TL smells sweet and leathery. very few noses can take it. The sweetness is due to the raspberry and the leather here which smells like cricket ball piched after a couple of overs. That is the reason why I find it similar to Italiano uomo.
whereas chrome is sharp synthetic tea note, some thing like classic black from Jaguar. This is my nose and my honest opinion.

I dont know how TF TL smells like, but to me this one surely smells very similar to chrome legend. Does TF TL smells like chrome legend?

This is Tuscan Leather by Armaf
I have a small decant of Tuscan leather which I use on special occassions and trust me on this this smells exactly like that to my nose.
Fellow fragranticans kindly give your feedbacks on this so to second it or let me know that the decant of TF TL is a fake..
