Leatherwood
The brand's name for the woody base of Zeitgeist; its structure and origin are undisclosed.
Woody
A Brand-Given Name
Leatherwood is the name J.F. Schwarzlose Berlin gives to the base of Zeitgeist. The brand lists it alone, using a single word to mark the woody close of the composition.
Structure Not Disclosed
The brand does not say whether Leatherwood is a single material or an accord built from several components. Its relationship to any plant that shares the name is also unconfirmed, so it is best read as a descriptive label rather than an identified raw material.
Wood After Water and Musk
Zeitgeist opens with Amber Xtreme, Peru Balsam, Calone and Algae Absolute, then moves to a musk complex of Nebulone and Edenolide. Leatherwood is the only entry in the base, following an aquatic, balsamic opening and a paired musk heart. In the brand's description, it brings the composition from marine and musky impressions down to wood.
