The review
Strong contender. That is where Shehab lands when you weigh what it costs, what it is made of and how firmly it is matched to Russian Leather.
Khalis sells it on the name alone — no note list of its own — so the brief is Russian Leather's pyramid, and the closeness votes below are the real test.
At $25 it costs 91% less than Russian Leather.
Some wearers dispute how close it gets — the match is the seller's claim, so read the votes before you buy.
Reviewed on paper: from the notes and strength Khalis 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
What it is chasing: birch, juniper and cade up top, leather, oud and tobacco in the middle, cedarwood, musk and amber underneath — the shape of Memo Paris Russian Leather.
Top
- birch
- juniper
- cade
Heart
- leather
- oud
- tobacco
Base
- cedarwood
- musk

Birch tar and cade over dense hide, the smell of a bookbinder's workshop in winter.
Some fans dispute how close this one gets — it is listed against the original by its seller.
