Prominent perfumer Mark Buxton is famous for his top-notch perfume compositions by the houses of: Givenchy, Paco Rabanne, Versace, Salvador Dali, Chopard, Cartier, Ferre, as well as for his long-term cooperation with niche house of Comme des Garcons. His motto is: ''Simplicity is the ultimate level of luxury.''
Besides his author work in perfumery, Mark Baxton's interests intertwine by connecting exploration of top quality and beauty. English painting, antique and gastronomy certainly make a part of mosaic of personality and world view of the famous perfumer. New, personal collection he has recently presented, was named Metamorphoses of Colours and Moods.
Colours are closely connected with mood. Mark Baxton demonstrated secrets clearly and simply by connecting colours and person's character and mood in his collection of seven fragrances, with the offered colour palette. Choose your colour and you will be offered a range of notes and aromas.
Collection Metamorphoses of colours and moods encompasses seven perfumes with the following names:
Wood & Absinth
Black Angel
Hot Leather
English Breakfast
Around Midnight
Sounds & Vision
Nameless.
Hot Leather is a provocative fragrance inspired by night life of Paris and good time in Moulin Rouge. The perfume opens with citruses, bergamot, coriander and mandarin, with iris root and jasmine in a heart, including base notes of patchouli, cedar and vanilla. Hot Leather was launched in 2008.

I'm still convinced that Mark Buxton delivers much better fragrances when he is committed by other brands than when he creates them for his own, and in this context "Hot Leather" makes no exception.
A floral leather (?) composition that instead of recallilng luxury shows an overall decadence that's quite far from being compelling. Mr. Buxton describe his composition as "an evening at the Moulin Rouge!", and that's perfect if you're obsessed with hookers dancing the can-can.
Rating: 5/10
Definitely male at first application. Then a bit of sweetness floated forward and the fragrance was in the citrus bergamot part. Never got any coriander. Then it was pretty much gone. Within 15 minutes there is a bit of patchouli left on my skin and that's only evident up close. No sillage or longevity to speak of. What a disapointment since I don't get any leather and with a name like "hot leather" I expected a fragrance to be racy, aggressive and/or at least last a decent amount of time on my skin.
Very classy leather scent, not over the top. I probably wouldnt buy a FB though as leather really isnt my thing, but I can appreciate that its a quality leather scent for a man or woman.
Creator of the GUCCI perfumes,i have 50 years non stop in the high end Perfumes business.
I would be very interrested to know more about your perfumes.
