Arena delves into the origins of perfume and connects Arabic culture with the Spanish Peninsula. While we certainly detect oud, what we notice foremost is smooth black leather. Iris enhances the leather with an extremely subtle powder that gives the leather a realistic supple texture that feels as though you are running your hand over an exquisitely crafted saddle.
