Amouage Attar Leather Sadah is a concentrated perfume oil crafted for women and men who appreciate the deep, mysterious allure of leather elevated by precious oud and sweet warmth. This scent draws inspiration from the legendary nomads of Al Saadah, renowned for crafting leather treasures fit only for royalty. Created under the creative direction of Renaud Salmon, Leather Sadah channels the distinctive artistry and cultural heritage that defines Amouage’s Attars Collection.
The Opening: Sweet Warmth Meets Royal Ambition
Leather Sadah opens with an unexpected sweetness through vanilla absolute, which provides a honeyed, golden introduction that immediately signals luxury and refinement. The first impression is rich and inviting, featuring the deep, creamy facets of high-quality vanilla that creates an opulent foundation. This sweet opening serves as a velvet cushion for the more intense elements to follow, preparing the senses for the powerful journey ahead.
Development: The Heart of Nomadic Craftsmanship
At its heart, the fragrance reveals the masterful leather accord that gives Leather Sadah its soul and identity. The leather emerges as a rich, supple note that speaks of fine craftsmanship and royal heritage, embodying the legendary nomads’ skill in creating treasures worthy of palaces. This isn’t harsh or synthetic leather, but something that feels lived-in yet luxurious, carrying the stories of ancient traditions and noble bloodlines.

As an attar, it develops beautifully with body heat, revealing the interplay between sweetness, leather, and precious wood throughout extended wear.

Leather Sadah is presented in Amouage’s signature attar vessel with contemporary packaging inspired by Omani village architecture.
