Matiere Premiere Falcon Leather Extrait

Description

Falcon Leather Extrait is the concentrated, after-dark edition of Matière Première's leather. Aurélien Guichard layers a rare Oud Assafi oil from Bangladesh onto the same birch-tar leather base, deepening it into something darker and more rounded. Reviewers frequently note the Extrait improves on the EDP's rougher edges without losing the original's rugged character.

How It Differs From the EDP

• Falcon Leather Extrait (this bottle), enriched with a rare Oud Assafi oil from Bangladesh as a guest ingredient layered onto the EDP's base formula. Darker, smoother, and more rounded, with stronger longevity and projection than the EDP.
• Falcon Leather EDP: the original 2019 release: a rougher-edged, vegetal leather built on birch tar and saffron.
• Choose the Extrait for a richer, more polished evening leather; the EDP for a rawer, everyday version.

Scent Character

• Oud: 26%
• Sweet: 26%
• Spicy: 24%
• Woody: 24%

Translation: a denser, more balanced leather-amber blend than the EDP, oud and balsamic sweetness running just ahead of spice and wood.
