Plasticine and leather for layering
How I came across the fragrance was actually very unusual for me - I went into KDW and looked at the range. These endless fields and shelves of perfume, for which you need a lot of patience and a lot of neutralizing coffee. Even so, my nose ended up overflowing with stimuli.
I was looking for a fragrance that I couldn't quite describe, but I already realized that I could probably only achieve my goal by mixing two fragrances or layering them. That was the case in the end. I was looking for a scent of metal, cold, cyberpunk and futurism. Somehow I got closer to that when I saw Altered Leather on the shelf. Its bottle is so simple, so meaningless and yet so eye-catching.
I smelled it on the cardboard, in the bottle and on my skin and what I found surprised me; after so many sophisticated fragrances, Altered Leather captivated me with its simplicity. There was nothing that gave me room for speculation, mysticism or flights of fancy. It smelled of pure leather. Like the leather of a new car, like the leather of a vintage leather jacket, like leather. Somewhere there was also a hint of dough. As vacuumed, as silent as outer space.
I also quickly found a perfume partner to meet my requirements: Escentric Molecules Patchouli. Both complement each other in my nose to create a successful blend. I'm curious to see what else you can layer the AL with!
In my opinion, it's not such an unsuccessful perfume if you see it as a building block, as an ingredient, for achieving your own creations. As a solo performer, AL is too one-dimensional, as has already been mentioned here, and too characterless.
