About the Product
Dana introduced English Leather in 1949, and the cologne has remained a classic. It is warm, bold, nostalgic and decidedly masculine.
Fragrance Family:
Aromatic
Scent Type:
Woody, citrus, intense
Notes:
Tangy citrus notes create English Leather's first impression, introducing the cologne with sharp freshness. As the scent matures, the signature leather heart note softens the opening accords, mingling with vetiver and oakmoss. Finally, the woody base notes take over and create a warm foundation for this timeless product.
Suggested Use
For long-lasting fragrance that you can carry throughout the day and to minimize the need for reapplying, focus on your pulse points behind your ears, at the base of your neck and on your wrists as well as warmer areas of the body, such as behind the knees and inside the elbow. These are the best places to apply your fragrance since the scent intensifies by the warmth of your body.

Love the fragrance of the after shave
My husband wore this after shave ever since I met him in 1988. Unfortunately he died and I don't have any of it left so I'm buying this for the memories. Too bad it's double the price since I bought it the last time. And I can't find it in the usual stores. Hope it smells similar to the original.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

This product is nothing like the original English Leather that I have been using for over 50 years. Doesn't smell anything like the original and very weak, does not last very long. I hate to say it, but I guess I will have to look for another cologne. I used to use the All Purpose Lotion, it was great, but Dana quit making itl.

Wear English Leather or Wear Nothing at all
This is the fragrance worn by Norman in the Stephen King novel "Rose Madder". In this novel, the writer actually perpetuated the advertising slogan "Wear English Leather or Wear Nothing at all!" "Anna paused with one hand on the study doorknob, looking into the dark room which had been a pantry when she was a little girl. Her nostrils flared slightly and the frown on her face deepened. There was a smell, all right, but it wasn't quite perfume. It was something that reminded her of the Mad Marxist. It was ... All my men wear English Leather or they wear nothing at all. Jesus! Jesus Christ!" Just for that alone should become the owner of this masterpiece.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

Gentle fragrance
My grandpa wore this as an aftershave. He gave a bottle to my son when he was five years old. Im happy i could still get this. I ordered one for my two older sons. This is a gentle smell. Its meant to be splashed on a bit and it dries to very light smell. Grandpa was a WW2 vet and my sons thought the world of him when they were little. They knew exactly the sentiment of this cologne. Blast from the past when men were men.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

English Leather cologne
I've always lover English Leather. Originally I was exposed to the scent in high school but only the kids that well off were able to afford it. My dad used a different scent and would only buy and use it. My first job enabled me to afford purchasing English Leather. Some say the scent has changed over the years. Personally, I think the scent changes as it reacts to you body changes, that's why some believe the formula has changed and not longer smell as when they first used it. Great scent.

Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

This is NOT English Leather!!!
English Leather was my favorite cologne back in college. I even saved an empty bottle just to occasionally take a whiff and relive old memories. What I got in the mail is NOT English Leather, and is not even close. If you're looking for the original scent, don't buy this. It's a total waste of money.
Bottom Line
No, I would not recommend to a friend.

Long Time User
I've been using English Leather for over 50 years. As a young man I had very sensitive skin that was irritated by shaving. This product was the only after shave that cooled and "calmed" my skin and took the redness away. I've always liked the scent - not "fruity" like many other products.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.
