FragDNA score · on paper
The review
Oriental Leather scores 6.5 out of 10 on paper — strong contender territory for anyone chasing Oud Ispahan.
Alexandria Fragrances sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Oud Ispahan's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $93 per 100ml it costs 73% less than Oud Ispahan — the 7th cheapest of 9 twins we can price.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Alexandria Fragrances publishes, the price per 100ml, and how firmly the match is claimed. How it really smells on skin is what the votes below are for.
What it's built to smell like
Dior Oud Ispahan is rose at first, agarwood, sandalwood and labdanum at its heart and patchouli, sandalwood and leather at the end. Alexandria Fragrances set out to put that same arc in a cheaper bottle.

Dense agarwood and Damascan rose with a leathery growl, opulent and serious.
