    I have Colonia Leather and i’ll be honest with you... i hated it the first time i wore this perfume. But the second and third time i sprayed this scent it grew on me. I was slowly lured into the beautiful layers this perfume is made of. I can’t get enough of this perfume now. It mixes perfectly with my cigerrette smoke and creates an aroma that i absolutely love.

    I love your videos. Especially the funny bits at the beginning. The only fragrance reviews that I actually laugh out loud watching. Cheers from the U.S.

    You put in to words something that I've never quite been able to articulate when you said, "I"m not sure I enjoyed it that much today." (8:05). I thought, yes, that's it. Sometimes I have a fragrance that I love one day, and the next day I wonder if I really do. It just clicked for me when you said that. Then I got to thinking about food. Some days you can eat a food you really do like, but it just doesn't quite satisfy on another day. Your comment got me thinking about all of my fragrances, and I realize that I have perhaps just three (out of about 12) that I always enjoy - Rive Gauche (I love old-school wet shaving), Polo Green, and Drakkar Noir (what can I say, I was a teen in the 80s!). As always, awesome video - thanks!

    This isn't bad.
    Not sure how I feel about leather fragrances yet (most of the ones I've tried are weird/harsh) but this one is really smooth.
    Definitely liking this one more than Tuscan Leather.

    Excellent review Dan. I'm a leather guy so, I love this one. I own three of the Ingredients line. Quercia, Leather, and Mirra. I love the way Ebano smells too but, it doesn't seem to last on me. I'm a HUGE Acqua di Parma fan. I love my leathers bold. I have a fairly long commute to work so, even if I wear something bold to work, it's usually 'settled' by the time I get to work. I think I'll make this one my SOTD for tomorrow. Thanks Dan. You've just saved me a half hour worth of time tomorrow morning. LOL!

      Hi James, I just bought the Quercia because I had a sample and loved the way it smelled, however i found it only lasts one to two hours on my skin before I can barely smell it, do u find this? Many thanks

    @mattstrom5348 5 років тому +1

    I sprayed a couple sprays of this Acqua di parma colonia leather on my lower arms before bed and then added some patchuoli oil from the heath-food store sparingly over-top of the colonia leather and in the morning after my shower, I was left with a pretty decent skin scent.

  • @jimr880
    @jimr880 6 років тому +2

    Surprisingly, I do not like those signature Mediterranean Acqua di Parma fragrances...but I love both Colonia Leather and Essenza Oud - two brilliant fragrances IMO. One thing I need to state is that Colonia Leather is miles-apart from Tuscan Leather with only a faint passing similarity. Sure, they're both leather frags...but that's it as they are very, very, very different. Enjoyed the review as I feel this one, along with Essenza Oud, rate more attention. Cheers.

    • @MrSmelly1977
      @MrSmelly1977  6 років тому

    I blind bought this one cause i love the house but im trying really hard to like it. I dont know, there is something missing and yes i do get a lot of that boot polish note. 7/10 for me. But Ebano is great. Sweet woody patchouli spice. A bit old fashioned scent in the best way. Great video Dan.

    Great review... I had to choose between Colonia Leather and the Essenza ...and I went with Essenza. But since I love leather this may be on my horizon. Bravo, well done.
    PS. Where ever did you find that photo of Audrey Hepburn, She never before looked so...so... round!

    • @MrSmelly1977
      @MrSmelly1977  6 років тому +1

      Thanks Lanier. I think Essenza is my favourite Acqu di Parma but I remember your first impression video helped me discover Leather! That lady is actually Maria Whittaker... a British glamour model who made an big impression on a 12 year old Mr Smelly back in the 80s!

    The usual excellent and thoughtful review. I've had this fragrance in my collection for several weeks and I very much like it. Love the leather with the rose in the background. I'd be very interested in your thoughts on Quercia and Ebano.

  • @M82RKY
    @M82RKY 6 років тому +3

    Hi mate, great review.
    I visited John Lewis today and tested it out along with a few creeds and ADP Oud.
    Leather has a Tuscan Leather vibe but no Rasberry, I get pure leather form it (noob fraghead) and seems to be performing well, I 100% agree with what you are saying here.
    I was about to drop £150 on some Tabacco Vanille but saw a MAC area so went for Velvet Teddy hahaha cutting corners mate!!!

  • @alexmetalhead15

    Oh cool! You know Dimitri too? Yeah, nice bloke. Very opinionated. lol As for Colonia Leather, I think you've got something when you mentioned that it's rather "drier" than Tuscan Leather. I get that too. I tried layering a sample with MB Individuel to see if I could add some raspberry to it....total disaster. Your elaborate description is very much appreciated Dan - especially for people on the fence about purchasing the pricey stuff. Keep it up my friend.

    @davidpeters2905 6 років тому

    hi Mr smelly, wow this is a very in depth fragrance review, i really paid attention to what you had to say, and I really admire the fact that you leave the final decision to us, i think that we have or need a challenging scent in our collection, otherwise it is just a bit boring, i don't like tuscon leather (harsh ) so I am going to be looking for a sample to put my nose to, just a random question have you ever noticed on the magnetic top to savauge edt look on the inside and there is a picture of a fly, i notice when I was reminding myself of the scent when you review it

  • @dylan45
    @dylan45 6 років тому +1

    Quercia and Ebano are beautiful but it's the bloody prices, I just don't get the ridiculous price point, and I have to say it's that what spoils the whole experience for me. Anyway, loved the Milo skit, surprising and funny.

      They are really different overall. I probably prefer this slightly. I do enjoy TL but find it hard to wear and perhaps not pleasing to others.

    Dont know if they smell the same i only smelled the “leather” not the colonia leather with the black bottle. Was the most disgusting fragrance i ever smelled in my life. Smelled like burnt rubber and ashtray. My wife and all my friends hated is as well. Projection is insane and even after a shower it continued to disturb my nose. I normally love leathers and knize ten is kind of my signature, but this one was horrifying. I dont get how anyone wants to smell like that.
