Scents of eras: how perfume reflects the spirit of the times
Every era has its own scent. Not literally, but in how it felt: what it wanted, what it feared, what...
B.ATES launched Leather Oud in 2022 — and it was a brilliant move. A unisex fragrance rooted in the leather, east, wood, and floral families. Perfumers Mark Buxton and Bünyamin Ateş joined forces to create something truly special. Concentration — eau de parfum: exactly what it needs to be.
Turkey is where this fragrance comes from — and it shows. Leather Oud B.ATES unfolds gradually, effortlessly, and with great refinement — a perfect choice for day or evening.
The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
A rich and elegant fragrance that gently unfolds on the skin and lasts most of the day, leaving a delicate trail
Perfumes for the fall and winter seasons often contain notes of vanilla, spices, ambergris, wood, and other warm accords, creating a feeling of comfort and warmth during the cold months
The composition of Leather Oud is built as a living composition, where notes flow smoothly and sequentially. The style of B.ATES is evident in details that define the fragrance identity. No excess details, only what works, and the fragrance holds its character from opening to trail. Eau de parfum sets the depth and body this composition needs.
At the opening of the pyramid you meet suede-spicy opening notes: Leather accord, Raspberry, Rhubarb and Rose. Exactly these 4 notes form the effect of expensive suede that gives the fragrance a clear opening statement.
In the middle phase you sense Nagarmotha, Oud, Vanilla and Violet holding a velvety sandalwood direction.
The accord profile is built around these accords: Gourmet, Floral, Fruit and Musc with each one in a clear role. Additional accords such as Wood, Leather and Spicy enrich the profile without taking over.
At olfactory-group level the composition is built around Leather, Fruit, Green and Floral. The framework further includes Wood, Gourmet, Spicy and Musk.
Taken together Leather Oud sounds complete from start to finish — the start forms character, the middle layer carries the identity, and the base secures the trail. These are the scent structures best understood in wear.
