English Leather Black is a new version of the famous English Leather created by the company MEM in 1949. In the years after the WWII pilots' leather jacket was one of the most romantic and desired things. Leather scents were also very much in, and one of them was the intensive and very masculine English Leather.
The company MEM was bought by Renaissance Cosmetics Inc., which is today named Dana Classics. Dana Classics owns several perfume brands among which Dana.

English Leather Black is 'the 21st century recreation of the famous fragrance' and even comes in the same bottle shape, only in black color. The main notes of this fragrance are bergamot, coriander, sandalwood and musk. The fragrance was created in 2007.

Like the original English Leather,Black is a very masculine and powerful cologne at an extremely low price.Lasts almost all day just like the original,a good modern interpretation of an American classic.

The notes listed here have GOT to be wrong. English Leather opens with a very strong citrus blast. It's something I generally stay away from, and it actually turned me off the first time I tried it. But the second time, I actually thought it was done quite well. Not to lemony . . . just citrusy. And then the citrus fade to uncover a strong musky leathery spicy concoction. This fragrance is extremely masculine and adventurous. Smells like something Indiana Jones would wear.

This opens like a freight train. Strong spice and citrus combine to make it sharp, while the middle/base musky and woody notes give it great depth. The leather in this is very much overwhelmed by the sharp top-notes.

After about 30 minutes it is really at its best and I detect something similar to a pungent tobacco-like note coming through, probably the "leather".

Like a freight train, it is also soon gone and after an hour it is really close to the skin.

This is a very good fragrance considering the cheap price for which it can be bought and I love the bottle. If only it lasted longer...

Unfortunately discontinued at my local retailer for the past year... but without a doubt my favorite scent. 1st a sweet, floral and citrus note, followed by a deeper musky tone, and ending with a somewhat grassy or piney flavor; all combined, a dark- sensual symphony that is neither overtly sweet as most feminine perfums, nor as intensely chemical as colognes for men.
I really wish there were more fragrances like this. I rate it higher than Burberry. 10/10

I have owned a wide variet of frags from mass market to niche, but i have a soft spot in my heart for drug store frags...i bought this one with the deo stick, aerosol spray and edt for like 20 bucks.

This one is plain and simple...to me, there is a a candied licorice note overlayed on rich suede. It stays fairly linear and does not progress in my opinion beyond those notes. It really smells nothing like the original english leather which is butch and astringent...only towards the very end does a little of that peak through. If you want an idea about how this one smells without purchasing it, smell the deo stick.

Overall i would rate it a 6 out of 10
