Sterling Extrait de Parfum

Tobacco and leather are the stars here, but that vanilla keeps it from feeling too rough around the edges. The 50 ml bottle is a solid size for an extrait, and one spray on my wrist lasted a full workday. I’ve already gotten two compliments from coworkers asking what I was wearing.

The dry-down is where this truly shines—that rich vanilla softens the leather beautifully without ever turning sweet, and a single spray lasts me all day at the office. The 50 ml bottle feels substantial in hand, and the fragrance stays close enough for daily wear but opens up nicely in the evening.

I’ve worn this on cool evenings and the leather note lingers for hours without ever turning sharp. It’s a 50ml bottle but a couple of sprays are plenty, which makes the price feel fair.
