Bottega Veneta · Eau de Parfum (EDP) · 2011
≈ $110 · 75ml · approx. retail
A refined leathery chypre that opens with bright bergamot and peppery warmth before settling into a soft, suede-like leather laced with jasmine. The drydown of oakmoss, patchouli and warm amber gives it a quietly luxurious, intimate signature that feels like fine Italian leather worn close to the skin.
