Fragrance information:
Licorice & Leather — LVNEA fragrance
LVNEA Licorice & Leather is a solid perfume with a distinctive leather character, where a spicy licorice theme meets the bitterish atmosphere of absinthe and a dry tobacco accord.
This unisex fragrance is for those who appreciate unexpected combinations, profound depth and a noticeable presence on the skin.
The release was created by LVNEA, an independent perfume house founded in the United States in 2015.
Its aesthetic is connected with nature, forest imagery and the sensation of an alchemical experiment. As a result, Licorice & Leather comes across not as a simple, slightly sweet licorice fragrance, but as a dark, textured composition with a mystical mood.
Character and Scent Profile
The fragrance’s defining feature is the contrast between cool bitterness and warm spiciness.
Licorice and anise create a recognizable spicy-sweet nuance, absinthe adds an herbal sharpness, while the leather accord makes the scent denser, drier and more composed.
As the composition unfolds, it becomes deeper: saffron lends it a warm, slightly metallic nuance, while the tobacco facet adds a soft smokiness.
As a result, Licorice & Leather remains a rich, dark and slightly provocative fragrance that reveals its wearer’s character best in cool weather.
Who It Suits and When to Wear It
Licorice & Leather is positioned as a unisex perfume, but it may smell different on different skin types: spicier and drier, or softer, with a noticeable licorice sweetness.
It will appeal to women and men who enjoy oriental, leather, spicy and woody compositions without obvious lightness or airiness.
The fragrance is especially suitable for autumn, winter and cool spring days.
It can be chosen for an evening out, an intimate gathering, a concert or a city walk when you want to emphasize your individuality and leave behind a distinctive fragrance trail.
Sillage and Application
Licorice & Leather is rated as having very strong sillage, so the fragrance is noticeable even with moderate application.
Exact dosage recommendations for skin and clothing are not provided in the available data. With solid perfume, it is especially important to start with a small amount and assess how it develops after a few minutes.
The solid perfume format is convenient for targeted application and for getting to know the fragrance throughout the day.
Apply a small amount to warm areas of the skin — the wrists, neck or behind the ears — without rubbing in the composition, so as to preserve the natural development of the notes.
Similar Fragrances
Those interested in Licorice & Leather’s leather and spicy profile should consider Memo African Leather, as well as Ajmal Cuir Musc and Memo Jamal's Palace.
They do not reproduce the LVNEA composition literally, but they can help continue your exploration of rich leather and oriental fragrances.
Information about the perfumer, year of release, collection and other concentrations of Licorice & Leather is not available.
This does not prevent the fragrance from being perceived as a cohesive niche release with a strong character, intended for lovers of complex, spicy and memorable compositions.
