PRODUCT DETAILS

For a bit of background, Ombré Leather launched in 2018 as part of Tom Ford’s Signature Collection, following the success of his more exclusive Ombré Leather 16 from the Private Blend line. It quickly became a fan favorite for those who love the smoky leather scent of Tuscan Leather but wanted something smoother, more wearable, and with a subtle floral undertone.
Ombré Leather is rich black leather with earthy patchouli, fresh vetiver, and a tinge of jasmine to soften the edges. It’s deep, warm, and slightly smoky, with an amber-mossy dry-down that lingers for hours. If you’ve ever wanted to smell like a high-end leather jacket, this is it. But the price tag isn’t for the faint of heart.
That’s where Chez Pierre’s Existation comes in. It kicks off with a unique twist, giving it a fresher, slightly brighter opening compared to Ombré Leather’s immediate hit of leather. Existation holds up well. It captures the same rugged, refined leather-spice balance that makes Ombré Leather such a statement scent. And at a fraction of the price, it’s a solid dupe for Tom Ford Ombre Leather without the luxury markup.

A fragrance that whispers tales of stark landscapes and untamed freedom. Like a desert storm, with bold strokes of leather that blend into a dusty, floral heart.

Perfume concentration

EDT, EDP or EXDP - what you are actually buying

The difference between these labels is not quality but how much perfume oil sits in the bottle. That decides how long the scent stays on your skin and how far it travels.

EDT Eau de Toilette 5 to 15% perfume oil

The lightest of the three. It opens fresh and fast, but fades after three to five hours. Pleasant in heat and at the office, as long as you top it up during the day.

Our choiceEDP Eau de Parfum ~20% perfume oil

The middle ground that became the standard. It lasts six to eight hours, one spray in the morning is enough, and the scent stays recognisable into the evening without filling the room.

EXDP Extrait de Parfum 20 to 40% perfume oil

The densest form, worn in drops, and it can last over ten hours. In return it loses that easy opening, and the price per bottle climbs the most.

Why we chose EDP

Every Chez Pierre perfume is made in Eau de Parfum concentration, with 20% perfume oil. That is not by accident.

An eau de toilette would mean carrying the bottle with you and refreshing the scent after lunch. An extrait would push the price up, and only someone counting hours would notice the gain. EDP sits exactly in between: one spray in the morning carries the whole working day, and the scent opens and develops instead of settling on the skin at once.

So we don't make lighter and pricier versions of the same scent. We make one, in the concentration where that scent works best.

How a perfume is measured

Longevity, projection and sillage

Three things describe every perfume, whatever the price or the name on the bottle. Once you separate them, it is easier to say what you actually want from a scent.

01

Longevity

How many hours the scent stays on skin

Measured from the moment you spray to the moment you can no longer smell it up close. It depends on the concentration, but also on your skin: on dry skin every perfume lasts less, so a dab of unscented cream before spraying helps.

02

Projection

How far it travels around you

Strongest in the first hour, it tells you how much space the scent takes up. Big projection is great for evenings and colder days, while at the office or in a meeting it usually gets in the way more than it helps.

03

Sillage

The trail you leave behind

Pronounced „see-yazh“, it means the trail a scent leaves behind you. It is the reason someone turns around as you pass. A perfume can last a long time and still leave a small trail, and the other way round.

Strong is not the same as good. A perfume with huge projection quickly tires both you and the people around you, while one without any trail stays your own private thing.

That is why every one of our perfume descriptions says how it wears, not only how it smells.

Existation

Inspired by: Ombre Leather, Tom Ford

It opens sharp with that saffron and green apple combo, almost like a crisp, slightly medicinal bite. A fresh, grassy undertone keeps it from going too sweet; it's not your typical fruity start.
Then the mid-notes hit. Jasmine and lily of the valley bring a floral touch, but the leather and spices overshadow them. The cardamom and black pepper are spicy but smooth, warm, and not overpowering. The juniper berry adds this gin-like, slightly piney edge.
The musk, amber, and patchouli dry-down create a slightly dirty base, while the moss and raspberry smell earthy and tart. And the animal tones add a raw, almost primal touch. It’s not a clean, soapy musk; it’s got grit.
Overall, this is bold and unique. If you’re looking for a more budget-friendly way to get that bold, leather-heavy scent, Existation is worth a shot.
