About this deal

I feel that Rare Carbon does sit between TL and OL EDP, actually leaning a bit more toward TL at times, esp during drydown, and OL early and mid. If you catch whiffs in the air, they are a dead-ringer for Ombre Leather at a quick sniff of the untrained nose. I was sadly disappointed when I received this as although you can tell it's meant to smell like Ombre Leather, it just doesn't have the same smoothness nor the gentle blend between the leather and sweetness of the TF. the original isn't bad, in fact it's still one of my favorite scents, but I reach for this 9 times out of 10 over Ombre leather because.

While we strive to provide accurate and helpful information, we cannot guarantee the complete accuracy or reliability of the AI-generated pros and cons. After 30 minutes, Rare Carbon dries down into a herbaceous violet leaf and animalic-leaning leather, with some floral, and aquatic facets in the background creating this interesting dichotomy between heavy and airy aromachemicals. Over the years AFNAN PERFUMES has been an explorer, finding new collections, directions and experiences to share with the market. Rare Carbon stays like this for the rest of its half-life, with everything except the leather slowly taking a back seat as you reach hour 3. Succeeding in his goal to build a unique perfume house, Imran, with his 18 years of expertise, has established a one-of-a-kind scent organization through organic growth, driven by life knowledge and independent motivation.

Ombre Leather used to be my signature scent for around a year and half (before I truly got into fragrances). Rare Carbon has a mix of the original and the parfum - it’s bright like the parfum but not earthy or powdery, it has the leather of the EDP but not as dark or bold.

Since it’s matured, it has quite a strong, synthetic Oud undertone projection and trail is eternal three out of five. The leather is less pronounced than the round slightly sweet one in OL EDP and definitely not as pronounced as the much dryer leather in OL Parfum. Tom Ford has this very self serious sexy attitude that their fragrances command, but With rare carbon I smell more of the violet and it brings a smile to my face.They may also limit the number of times you see an advert as well as help measure the effectiveness of the advertising campaigns. If I spray it on my clothes, and expose it to direct sunlight or heat, it somehow starts to smell bad. The openings are different; Rare Carbon being SUPER leathery right away to an almost cloying degree, and Ombre Suede has a lighter fruitier (raspberry) opening. Haven't faced that problem in night times, and since I bought it like 2 months ago, I'm still waiting for my first winter with this thing. The next several hours settle into a luxurious berry/leather fragrance with excellent longevity and very good projection/sillage.
