The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Launched in 2016 by Byredo, Le Gant is a leather fragrance for women and men that embodies the brand's commitment to translating memories into tangible experiences. The composition opens with bergamot and saffron, bringing an unexpected brightness to the powdery and leathery heart notes of heliotrope, mimosa, and leather. Acai berry adds a fruity twist before musk and amber settle into a warm, animalic base that is both comforting and intriguing.

How to wear it

Apply Le Gant to pulse points for a subtle, all-day presence. The fruity top notes are fleeting, so layering with a touch of the musky base will ensure a long-lasting effect. This fragrance is best worn close to skin rather than diffused into the air.
