I’m not going to spend too much time talking about this one. Cuir Grenat is almost a 1 on 1 copy of Tom Ford Tuscan Leather.

Very similar opening with the raspberry and the luscious, dense leather. Quite loud and sharp, with a semi-refreshing tinge to the leather. I always picture Tuscan Leather-esque scents as new, almost shiny non-grain leather couches.

Heavy on the wear, although maybe a tad lighter than Tuscan Leather itself, but the differences are negligible. If anything, I’d say the raspberry is a little bit more pronounced, just like it is in Rasasi Layuqawam. Smells good, but a totally unneeded release. Get Tuscan Leather for the real deal or get LaYuqawam for a more affordable great alternative.
