The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2024 by Viktor&Rolf and crafted by perfumers Carlos Benaïm and Jean-Christophe Hérault, Spicebomb Dark Leather is a bold interpretation of the classic leather fragrance. The composition begins with a fresh spicy burst from black pepper and nutmeg before transitioning into a warm, enveloping heart of cinnamon and frankincense. At its core lies an intricate blend of tobacco and black leather, creating a rich, smoky depth that lingers on the skin.
Apply one to two sprays to your pulse points; the top notes are intense but dissipate quickly. The tobacco and leather base will gradually emerge over time, making this fragrance best suited for evenings or cooler weather when its warmth can truly shine.
