Description: Royal English Leather is another traditional favourite. The warm scent of leather is given added freshness with a hint of tangerine in the top note. This fragrance was enjoyed by the Kings of England, George III and George V.
With its characteristic note of chypre, Aramis embodies male strength and virility. It is one of the few current fragrances for men with a strong, recognisable leathery note. Though very popular in the 70s, fresh, clean smells are more in vogue today.
