🌿 The Inspiration: The Italian Scrubland
Walking through the wild hills of Italy, crushing aromatic herbs under your leather boots. Thyme & Bergamot Leather focuses on the herbal, aromatic heart of the original 2019 recipe. It is fresh, savory, and incredibly restorative. It is the scent of nature, refined by the city.
🧪 The Olfactory Architecture: Herbal Freshness
A bright explosion of Calabrian Bergamot and Lime opens the scent. It is zesty and sharp. The heart is a massive dose of Wild Thyme and Rosemary, adding a dry, peppery herbal heat. The base is a clean, Vegetal Leather and Vetiver. It is dry, green, and lacks any heavy resins.
🌿 Raw Material Sourcing: The Mediterranean Herb
-
Wild Thyme Oil: Sourced for its spicy, camphoraceous aroma that clears the mind.
-
Calabrian Bergamot: The "Prince of Citrus," providing a complex floral-citrus top.
-
Vetiveryl Acetate: A refined vetiver molecule that adds a clean, woody finish.

"This is my favorite 'Fresh' leather. It's so aromatic. It reminds me of the maquis in Sardinia—green, dry, and salty. It's incredibly revitalizing on a hot Tuesday in London."
