Smell like yourself: 5 trending second skin scents

Nero Speziale Ultimo Atto is a niche Italian fragrance released in 2023 by Nero Speziale.
The composition is presented in an extrait de parfum concentration and is intended for those who appreciate rich, distinctive and multilayered fragrances.
The fragrance is unisex, so it may unfold differently on women’s and men’s skin.
At the heart of Ultimo Atto, gourmand, leathery and woody facets come together.
This is not a light everyday perfume that stays close to the skin: its sillage is described as very strong, while the composition itself is designed to unfold dramatically and make a confident impression.
The fragrance opens with a contrasting combination of citrus freshness, juicy fruitiness and a dark tea nuance.
It then becomes richer and denser: the leather accord is softened by milk, while sandalwood adds a creamy, smooth woody quality.
In the drydown, Ultimo Atto settles into a warm, ambery-musky depth.
Leather blends with grey amber, vanilla and tonka bean, creating a dense, slightly sweet and sensual trail, while liatris adds a dry floral nuance to the base.
Thanks to this progression, the fragrance feels far from linear, gradually changing its mood from a bright opening to a rich, almost theatrical finish.
This perfume will appeal to women and men who love expressive leather fragrances with gourmand warmth.
It is especially suitable for cool weather, evenings, formal occasions or moments when you want to emphasize your individuality and leave a noticeable impression.
Because of its very strong sillage, it is best to start with a cautious amount: the exact number of sprays for skin and clothing is not specified in the available data.
A practical approach is to test the fragrance with a small amount and see how it behaves on your own skin, as an extrait can unfold intensely and last a long time.
The composition was created by Arturetto Landi.
In his work for Nero Speziale, there is a clear intention to unite rich leather, noble woods and soft gourmand accents without reducing the fragrance to simple sweetness or straightforward brutality.
Ultimo Atto continues the Italian perfumery tradition, in which what matters is not only the individual notes but also the impression of the composition as a whole: its texture, richness and expressive trail.
At the same time, the fragrance remains gender-neutral and may be an intriguing choice for fans of unconventional leather and woody releases.
If you enjoy rich compositions with leather, ambery depth and an oriental mood, consider The Spirit of Dubai Majalis.
For comparison, you could also explore Mugler A*Men Pure Leather and The Spirit of Dubai Turath — they offer a sense of the different facets of dense leather and woody accords.
No other concentrations of Ultimo Atto are listed in the available data.
Therefore, the main focus remains on the extrait de parfum version — the richest form of the composition, with a distinctive character and very strong sillage.
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
The most concentrated form of perfume with a deep, multifaceted composition, exceptional durability, and an expressive 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 top notes open with bergamot, black tea and pineapple.
Bergamot adds a bright citrus freshness, pineapple brings a juicy fruity nuance, while black tea makes the opening deeper and more defined.
The heart features a leather accord, milk and sandalwood. This part of the pyramid is built on the contrast between rich leather and soft, creamy nuances.
The base combines grey amber, a leather accord, liatris, tonka beans, vanilla and musk. The final impression is warm, sweetish-woody, ambery and long-lasting.
