Perfumer Reviews 'Ombré Leather' - Tom Ford

[@DanishRiaz-pq4jo]

It’s the best of all time for my god the beautiful LEATHER opening but the dry down OMG ITS HEAVEN

[@user-dg1wx6kv7b]

This is a leather fragrance if you smell it straight from the nozzle or on test strip. However, it doesn't smell like leather when worn and catching the scent through the air. This is the first fragrance experience where I realise how it can be transformed and be different between straight on smelling it and on skin.

[@Tonixxy]

Quality stuff

[@crowhurd]

One of my all time faves

[@808winds]

i will have to try it again, only smelled it from a test strip an hated it

[@Tonixxy]

@@808winds never judge only by test strip

[@kieranb7747]

no the initial scent is literally leather, then it settles and transforms into fruity jasmine type smell.

[@dahnyul]

This was a transformative fragrance for me like so many have said. It really struck me as one of the most magnificent things I had smelled, especially as somebody new to the game. It's wonderful to hear your impressions and the methods of construction. Love your work as always! My scent of the day today was your Maverick! Love that stuff!

[@DerDop]

I've smelled it last week and it blew my mind. It's exactly as you've said, transformative.

[@AM-kc7ud]

Exactly the same for me ! i started my fragances journey after Ombre leather

[@DoomiePookie]

I wear this in the hot heat of summer here in Australia and even to the gym, compliments all the time!

[@taintedlife2618]

When I first spray this on, it smells like a black leather jacket. Then the Jasmine just sinks in and soars on my skin. I love the floral aspect. It’s so rich. It performs beautifully. I own a large bottle and a small one and I went through a travel vial and somehow this makes me want to buy more. Can’t see how much is left and I love this size bottle 🖤

[@NC_ROUTERS]

Hey Aaron. A few videos again you said that someone having your fragrance as a signature is the highest compliment, and I wanted to tell you that Onyx has been my signature scent since I first tried it 2 years ago. I love your work🙏

[@jasonwrites9186]

Aaron, just wanted to say that of all the ways your videos have looked over time, this type of colour grading is my favourite. Great vid as always :)

[@savysav1253]

Aaron! You’re videos are like asmr to me. I can’t get enough. Love the descriptions and your vibe is amazing. Thank you for your work

[@Ace0555]

One of my all time favorites. Tom Ford Ombré Leather will always be in my collection. And I use a lot of it.

[@robertoescobarjr]

They only time I'll disagree with you Aaron. For me, this is a 10/10 fragrance. There is something about it that captivated me the first time I smelt it. Great video as aways!!!

This has become a staple in my fall lineup... works into the winter as well but it is PERFECT for the fall.

[@Roy_Godiksen]

I use it when i ride my motorcycle. I have a leather racing suit, and Umbre Leather is perfect. Got to go one spray in the high heat, but it has never been a problem.

[@Teamshmo]

Lol same. I only wear when I have a leather jacket and mostly riding the bike

[@boombipboogaloo9891]

This is the fragrance that actually got me into fragrances. I'd love to see you do something like this as I think you could do it better, do it in your own style and make it super fantastico

Wow…Same here 😊

[@Usy122]

I'm in love with the initial leather scent and when it opens up it's pure 🔥

[@cruztube23]

I tested it last year, liked it but I wasn't blown away. Fast forward this friday, I was at a wedding, my older cousin wore Ombre leather and I loved how it smelled. I'm definitelly gonna give it another try. What struck me most is how long it lasted on him. Hours and hours into the party and I couldn't detect no fragrance around anyone, even on myself, except on him. The radiance and longevity of Ombre leather is stunning.

[@l.p.8298]

Dude, i've been decanting your 9+ reviews -- gotta say, your nose is unmatched, a lot of the fragrances I've tried from you, they definitely take you on a journey (been stalking your channel for a while)

Last time I wore this was at gentleman’s club and I had a black biker jacket on. Was a wild night I’ll never forget. They all loved my scent…

[@jeremychandler8802]

Great review. I've grown weary of TF because most lack longevity, at least on my skin. Would you please consider creating a video with your top favorite fragrances that you'd consider year-round? Thanks again. 😊❤️

[@neslind1]

Ombre leather has good longevity

[@Tripokaridos22]

There are people that don't want big Longevity because they use different scent at work ,gym, and night . Also people that are clean and bath everyday also don't need 12 hours perfume, and again people that wash their clothes also don't want to have a shirt smelling perfume for 2 days.

Aaron rereviewed one of my top 3 fragrances in my collection, since I love leather fragrances. I was so surprised in your previous review when you said it doesn't project, since this is one of the few fragrances my gf says they project a lot and I only do two sprays. So, I am really, really happy that you scored it so high and that you rereviewed it. Thank you!

As always great review Aaron! Would be very interested in a review of Armani Privé - Bleu Turquoise, and hear what you have to say about it. Its by far my favourite fall/winter fragrance and very interesting since its a warm Vanilla/Seasalt combination wich the perfumer nailed perfectly.

[@degenerateautismo9987]

Thanks Aaron, for your fantastical reviews! Personally, I would've preferred the leather in this to have been a little more smoky. By the way, would you please consider reviewing Kalan by Parfums de Marly?

Thanks man, I love this one as well, and it is really versatile and not to much sillage, so its perfect for the Office imo.

[@NicoBearon]

I will say. This fragrance is very very sophisticated smelling. Professional, mature, yet could still be youthful. It’s sweet but not cloying. I’m not very good at describing the notes but it reminds me of a hotel, with a lot of leather furniture and incense in the air, with roses everywhere. That’s where it takes me . I do like it but it’s kind of not worth the price

[@L1qu1d_5h4d0w]

Not worth the price? You know by that performance you need 3 sprays an it lasts the entire work day… 100ml I'm convinced will last me 4 years no problem. Sure I own 30 fragrances but I wear one everyday…. 2-8 sprays depending on which one I wear. Same goes for Ombre Leather (fk the hype I love it on my skin/hair) and 2 sprays are enough for 10h and 4 sprays does it for 16h+ on my skin… You can’t say that’s not worth it, when we’re talking about a scent that doesn’t blind your nose after 1-2 hours and it’s gone for others after 5h or so… (I work 11h a day) You can smell it yourself constantly and it will last 4 years plus if it’s not you daily fragrance… I don’t say this because otherwise it would hurt, but most of my fragrances I love the most are 150€ plus fragrances.

[@ivankb4412]

Would you say the parfum is a better choice for a date?

It depends, in general I'd say it's not really a date perfume, but it depends on your age and the dates itself.

[@cowboycrunchies]

Great review Aaron. Would love to hear your take on Davidoff’s Leather Blend.

[@LokIArioch]

To me, the opening smells strongly of new car smell with leather interior that's been sitting out in the sun for a couple of days - not unpleasant, but very niche. Then on the drydown, it turns into more of a black licorice with a note of leather and a touch of sweetness. A hard fragrance to wear sometimes, but the weather definitely makes a difference in how it's perceived. I reserve it for cold night-time wear, preferably in winter. Definitely pick your battles with this one, don't wear it to the gym, but in the right circumstances, it's a monster compliment getter and a pleasure to wear.

[@edthejester]

I own both the edp and the perfume and I noticed there is a lingering scent of smoke or ash almost to the edp which I absolutely love. You can smell it close to your skin in particular. The perfume doesn't have that, which makes it more suitable for...business settings I guess? I have been wearing both to office though, in order to a/b how I experience them. By the way, would you ever consider doing a Tom Ford homage scent? I bet we would be all over that one haha 😅

[@garyhunt1973]

He does a tuscan leather one called K **T

[@Nickle314]

Its one of my favourites. It doesn't have that dryness of Tuscan Leather, which is very very leather with that raspberry touch. For Ombre Leather I would like the fruit upped, or perhaps a leather and jasmine, or the raspberry. But it is gorgeous.

TF OL is such a great scent, when we are inundated with freshies and super sweet this scent stands out. TBH I think it is more floral than leather.

Great review, Aaron. I love TF fragrances BUT................. They don't appear to love me. Despite trying dozens of them, from the heavy leather/tobacco/ouds through to the neroli portofinos, not one single TF fragrance stays on my skin for more than around 35-40 minutes. I can literally spray a few blasts onto my skin then get a cab into town and by the time I have been to the bar and bought my first drink - BOOM! It's gone. I have no idea why this is. I know that perfumes react differently on the skin of the individual but I feel cheated somehow that I've never found a TF fragrance that *works* on me. This is why I don't buy TF fragrances. I can't justify the cost for something that doesn't last on my skin, sadly.

[@taintedlife2618]

I agree. But this one performs so well on me. At least try a decant. Rose Prick also performs well on me and Lost Cherry is decent on my skin. And Noir de Noir!

[@hauntological]

@@taintedlife2618 I just wish I could find one that does last on me. The *fragrance house* that always works its magic on me is Etat Libre d'Orange.
