Niche line Régime des Fleurs has launched Leather Petals, a spicy floral leather fragrance intended as "an olfactive love letter" to New York City.
An unsettling concoction of bitters, woods, poisonous herbs and flowers on a base of exquisitely subtle leather.
[...] Leather Petals is an ode to New York. I first moved here at 16, desperate to be a part of the drama and decadence I grew up reading about. The perfume is mysterious and seductive: what if flowers were made from leather? That sort of energy is what drew me here, and Gotham did not disappoint. — Alia
The notes include artemisia bitters, davana, rum, orris, osmanthus, galbanum, patchouli, cedar, venenum flower, labdanum, styrax and leather.
Régime des Fleurs Leather Petals is $225 for 75 ml Eau de Parfum.

Oooh as a city slicker and a lover of floral leathers… eager to sniff this!
It looks very worth a shot. Wish they did travel sprays!
same! they do have 6 samples for $48 — I can’t tell if that is a reasonable price for samples anymore 🤔🤔
My personal rule is, although I don’t necessarily claim to follow it, $5 tops for dabber samples and up to $10 for spray samples, including shipping if you buy a minimum, let’s say $30 worth.
The bottle reminds me of the old English Leather bottles.
