Reviews of Hermes Bel Ami from noses that may or may not sniff like your nose does.

from basenotes - "The leather note in Bel Ami is irresistable. The wood and the gasoline notes set the tone for the fragrance and the leather is dry and crackly-stiff. It has the quality of an imagined leather object like a leather blanket. I've never heard of one, but I'd love to have one."

from that-smell - "Sweet upon application with a nice bergamot and lemon opening. The spiciness is only a hint in this fragrance. What I’m getting the most out of it is a deep, rich leather scent with a hint of animal and a big dose of earthiness from the orris."

Timeless, pure class.

This leather is very different than Tuscan Leather by Tom Ford. This is a clean, dry and luxurious leather with an herbal twist. As opposed to TL which is a dirty, damp, smokey leather with a sweet raspberry twist. This has the backbone of the classic masculine scent of years past but Jean Claude Ellena did a masterful job of modernizing it. Classic, yes but definitely not dated either. A modern tribute to an old masterpiece, Bravo Mr. Ellena! I probably wouldn't feel comfortable wearing this casually, this is definitely a dressed up evening event wear.

A More Sensuous Old Spice

I won't pretend to break down the various scents that go into making Hermes' Bel Ami, I'll leave that to the experts, but as someone who enjoys classic fragrances - and does not enjoy the recent turn towards "fresh" scents - I really enjoy wearing this. It reminds me of a more refined, more sensuous, version of Old Spice. For the younger crowd, this may be the "kiss of death", but for those who think "classic" isn't a synonym for "old", you might like this one.

Luxury and pure leather

I'm a great fan of leathery, sophisticated and classy frags. This beautiful scent from Hermes blow me away first time I sniffed it. Really gorgeous, upscale, masculine. This one and Tuscan leather must be one of those best leather frags as far as scents go, probably! You can't go wrong with it. Fall/ winter frag. Longevity and projection is great on my skin. I'm happy to sampled it and bought a bottle:)
