About Woodleather
Woodleather is a perfumery ingredient with a combination of deep woodiness and warm leather. Its character is associated with the rich, woody and leathery facets of oud, offering a way to explore those textures within a fragrance. Dense woods and supple leather remain closely connected in its olfactory image.
Scent Profile
A forest-like depth meets the smooth warmth of leather, with darker, smoky and resinous suggestions around the wood. Dryness and warmth sit together, giving the leathery aspect a woody setting. These overlapping textures help explain its use in compositions that explore the different facets of oud.
Use in Perfumery
Woodleather appears in both heart and base accords of woody leathery fragrances. It is combined with iris and gurjum balsam in one approach, or with myrrh, incense and papyrus wood in a darker, smoky setting. Those combinations place wood and leather beside either floral softness or the warmer depth of resins. Its role is to add a concentrated woody-leathery character that can connect these different groups of materials.
