The story behind the bottle.
Royal Leather by By Kilian was launched in 2015 as an Oriental Floral fragrance that marries the richness of leather and oud with floral and green notes, creating a complex yet harmonious scent. The composition opens with black tea and hawthorn, adding a fresh spicy twist before diving into the heart of heliotrope and agarwood (oud). The base is anchored by patchouli and powdery accords, giving it an earthy warmth that grounds the entire blend.
Apply Royal Leather with two sprays to the pulse points. The black tea and hawthorn top notes are fleeting but vibrant, so allow the fragrance to settle for about 15 minutes before heading out. This ensures that the leather and oud heart notes come through more prominently, providing a richer experience throughout the day.
