   |  Bright and right leather lovers' frag. Not as teutonic or sophisticated as Knize, nor as heavy as Royal English Leather, and available in terms of money (REL), or in the US (Knize) - lacking a current distributor. But this a great leather fragrance, and barring the other two, my "third" leather scent, but clearly a distinct leather unto it's own. Great fragrance done right!20 June 2009 |
 | You know, the worst thing I can say about this scent is that Kolnisch Juchten is better. But then Kolnisch Juchten is better than anything, at least in the category of relatively unknown leather frags. 1776 is an interesting leather scent. I think Buzzlepuff nailed it. Yes, I agree with all the reviewers who have smelled it, thumbs up! I find more spice and booze in this one than I do root beer or black tea. Unusual and uplifting. The only downside is that you may be seized by an impulse to jump on the saddle, draw your saber, kick the horse into a gallop and charge the enemy! By-gone era indeed. 18 June 2009 |
  | A nice fragrance at a great price! If only those two went together more often... It's tenacious but light, a cinnamon and carnation vibe playing through the top notes until it settles down to warm, smooth ambery-leather base. Not like other "Russian" leathers on the market, in fact more of a distant cousin of Knize Ten, albeit much softer. The sillage is decent and the longevity is good, around ten hours. This is especially good in warmer weather, when heavier leathers can get a bit sickly. 10 May 2009 |
 | This is a decent, reasonably priced leather fragrance. The opening is a bit sweeter than I like for a leather centered fragrance, but the dry down is quite pleasant, with smooth leather and ambery overtones. 29 April 2009 |
  | Since I've yet to try the Knize Ten and Creed's Royal English Leather, I'd at the moment rate this one 5 stars. The opening is balsamic, smoky yet fresh. I can feel the citrus hidden amongst the smoky cloud, enlivening this fine leather scent to a high degree. The mysterious feel shows up during its middle stage, gathered by the spicy notes and leather, which appear warm, smoky and reminds me of anything high-end. The scent lingers for hours, its base is musky and leathery, and a bit dirty IMO. Wear it if you want to feel luxury surrounding you. 07 February 2009 |
