The Story

British Leather by Alfred Dunhill, launched in 2019, is a Woody Spicy fragrance that channels the brand's heritage of luxury and craftsmanship. The composition opens with Guatemalan cardamom, hazelnut, and juniper, blending aromatic freshness with warm spiciness. At its heart, lemon and bergamot introduce a bright citrus contrast to lavender and violet leaf, while orange blossom adds an unexpected floral touch. Leather and smoky accords dominate the base, anchored by patchouli, sandalwood, and vetiver for a rich, earthy depth that feels both classic and modern.

Application Tips

Apply British Leather to pulse points for warmth that builds over time. The smoky-leather base notes will develop fully after about an hour, so a lighter first pass allows you to experience its gradual transformation throughout the day.

Pierre Negrin portrait

The son of scent traders, Pierre Negrin learned his art in a laboratory rather than a school. His years spent in Mexico and New York influenced his work for Amouage, which tends to be cosmopolitan and pragmatic, capturing the complexity of the densest balsams and absolutes.

The story behind the bottle.

The quiet intensity of an office on a Friday afternoon — where polished leather chairs meet the crisp scent of freshly brewed coffee, and the day's work feels balanced by the promise of the weekend.
