Al Contrario (2155 Limited Edition)
EDPUnisex
The Story
Al Contrario is a bold, smoky leather fragrance that flips the script on traditional leather scents. The 2155 Limited Edition pays homage to the year of the first recorded use of tobacco in Europe, and the juice is a rich blend of tobacco, leather, and dark fruits. It opens with a burst of plum and saffron, then settles into a warm, resinous heart of labdanum and birch. The base is a deep, smoky leather with hints of vanilla and oud. This is a fragrance for those who want to stand out.
