What Is Ombre Leather Parfum?

Tom Ford Ombre Leather Parfum is one of the most recognisable designer fragrances on the market — a Parfum that occupies the rare space where commercial reach and genuine quality intersect.

The Scent: Notes, Structure & Dry-Down

Ombre Leather Parfum opens with violet leaf and cedar — an assertive first impression that carries across a room. Give it twenty or thirty minutes and the middle act arrives: jasmine sambac and orris. Hours in, what remains is the foundation: leather, woody notes and tobacco.

Strip it back to the bones and the profile reads leather, woody — easy to place and easy to wear.
