{"product_id":"alvarez-gomez-cuero-homme-eau-de-parfum-150ml","title":"Cuero Homme Eau de Parfum 150ml","description":"\u003cp\u003eLeather fragrances are usually loud, and Alvarez Gómez Cuero Homme Eau de Parfum 150ml is not: it is built from five materials and holds them in a close, dry, quiet arrangement that sits near the skin rather than filling a room with itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCedarwood and nutmeg do the early work. Cedarwood is sharp and dry, nearer a sharpened pencil than a stand of trees, and nutmeg adds a dusty, slightly woollen warmth beside it. There is no citrus and no bright opening at all, so the fragrance starts where most finish and simply deepens from there.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLeather is the centre of it. Here it is the soft, worn sort rather than anything tarry or smoky, closer to a jacket that has been in the wardrobe for years than to a tannery, and that restraint is what makes the fragrance wearable every day. Amber warms it with a resinous sweetness and sandalwood smooths the edges, creamy and mild, so the leather never turns harsh. Five materials means no complicated evolution. What changes over the hours is the balance rather than the cast, with the spice fading and the leather and sandalwood taking over entirely. It is a short composition and it works because every material chosen is a warm one, so there is nothing sharp left behind when the spice goes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA 150ml eau de parfum is a serious amount of fragrance for the money, and at this strength a couple of sprays in the morning will see out the whole day. It is made for men, it belongs to the colder half of the year, and it is quiet enough to wear in an office. The house is Spanish and family owned, founded in 1899 in Madrid, where three young men from León in the aroma trade opened a shop at Calle Sevilla 2.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alvarez Gómez","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53292172640583,"sku":"BTS393827","price":24.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/5049\/1463\/files\/YjM3VVM2SnJza0xWNTg2anRpT0xsLy84bjNPek96bnplWXNuZlFkUmlaUTUzckViNHBBdUpBeEp0QjlETmR6ZQ2.jpg?v=1770428986","url":"https:\/\/thescentvault.ie\/products\/alvarez-gomez-cuero-homme-eau-de-parfum-150ml","provider":"The Scent Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
