It opens with saffron and the camphorated edge of incense, and then a smoky leather comes through, with an animalic touch, which brown sugar rounds out. Over the hours it settles into tonka bean, vanilla, and musk: the leather is still there, softer and wrapped in amber. Warm and spicy, not dry.
Arabian Leather is an amber leather fragrance from Marrakech Imperial, in extrait de parfum, created by Christian Carbonnel, the perfumer behind the entire The Moroccan Vibes collection (25% extraits, according to the house). This Moroccan house, founded by an Italian-Moroccan duo, dedicates it to the equestrian art of Morocco's purebred Arab horses.
It calls for cold weather: autumn, winter, and night. It will work for you if you're looking for a leather scent with presence but without harshness, sweeter than animalic; if you want something fresh for a hot day, this is not it. In layering, Les Nuits de Marrakech, by the same perfumer, repeats saffron and incense and takes them into the woods; Oud Tobacco by Montale shares leather and amber and pushes them toward tobacco.
What does Arabian Leather smell like?

Who created Arabian Leather by Marrakech Imperial?
Arabian Leather is created by Christian Carbonnel, the perfumer behind the entire The Moroccan Vibes collection by Marrakech Imperial. It is an extrait de parfum, and the house states a 25% concentration for this collection.
What pairs well with Arabian Leather?
Arabian Leather pairs well with Les Nuits de Marrakech, from the same house and with the same saffron and incense in the opening, and with Oud Tobacco by Montale, which shares the leather and amber and takes it toward tobacco.
When does Arabian Leather shine most?
Arabian Leather shines most in autumn, in winter and at night, because the leather and vanilla open up better in cold air. In strong heat it can become dense; for those days, Take Me Back to Marrakech, from the same house, is citrusy and floral.
