The tactile sensuality of rich leather. Tom Ford



I purchased the large 3.4oz (100ml) bottle before Christmas 2019 and I still have not finished it. I often only spray my neck & wrist & the fragrance lasts all day. 

A longer lasting fragrance with less spray means a nice surprise return on my investment. I have received compliments from both men & women, straight and gay, it is a very inclusive fragrance that is not off putting like other high-end scents. 

I have tried other "name" brands & non have come close to receiving as many compliments as Tom Ford Ombre Leather. I am looking forward to trying out the other fragrances from Tom Ford's fragrance house.




Fragrance Family: Warm & Spicy

Scent Type: Woody Spices

Key Notes: Black Leather, Cardamom, Patchouli

Fragrance Description: The tactile sensuality of rich black leather, textured with addictive patchouli and vetiver envelops like a second skin. The perfume’s floral tones of jasmine sambac conjure wild desert beauty, while layers of amber and moss mimic the heat of rock and sand.

About the Bottle: Packaged in a matte-black flacon with a faux-leather plaque, the Ombré Leather flacon captures the bold, tactile sensuality of the spicy leather scent.

About the Fragrance: "Ombré Leather is a deeply textural scent that imprints you with a tactile sensuality. It makes one feel different, beautiful and desired."—Tom Ford





Fragrance is intensified by the warmth of your own body. Apply on the neck & creases of your elbows for a longer-lasting, stronger scent. 

After applying, avoid rubbing or dabbing skin. This breaks down the fragrance, causing it to wear off more quickly. 

If you prefer placing fragrance on your wrists, be sure to reapply after frequent handwashing, as this tends to rinse off the scent. 

Replace fragrance after 12 months. Expired perfumes more than a year old lose the integrity of the original scent.

Eau de Toilette or Eau de Parfum?

The difference lies in the volume of perfume oil. While EDT contains five to nine percent, EDP contains more, usually eight to 14 percent. EDPs, therefore, last longer and smell more intense.

After the rebuild came the OEM+ tune up.

Months of pampering had finally come to its climax, the break in period had been reached and the TT was finally ready for its tune up. However, this was not going to be your usual filter and plugs ordeal, not in the slightest.  I had spent weeks if not months researching the vulnerable weak points of the EA888.2 engine & had made it my mission to ensure they were rectified.  The first being the always at fault positive crankcase ventilation “PCV” plate that was integrated into the aluminum valve cover. This automotive emissions system is meant to direct the gases that enter the crankcase into the intake stream to be reburned in the combustion chamber.  However, it fails often and without warning allowing oil to make its way into the intake tract causing carbon to build up on the intake valves.   This issue was rectified by installing a CTS Turbo CNC aluminum PCV replacement plate with an oil condenser and catch can. The oil vapor would tr...

Oil catch can system UPGRADE.

Bigger catch can means less frequent drainage, race inspired baffled system with built in surge tank allows for spirited driving without filling up the can too quickly. Is the CTS catch can worthwhile?  Absolutely, for normal daily driving, and relatively stock to stage 1 cars I can honestly recommend it.  In my case, I am constantly working on improving my Audi TT Quattro in order to surpass tuned TTS power, therefore I post pictures and videos of my upgrades as they occur.

Racingline Oil catch can dump (1 winter month)

I went from dumping the contents of my CTS TURBO oil catch can biweekly to dumping the contents of the Racingline oilc catch can monthly.    Since it's winter in Canada the temperature has gone from +5 to -15 degrees in the same day. Because of the constant temperature changes its safe to say that not everything in the catch can is oil blowby. Because of this exact reason I needed a can that would have a larger containment capacity. The Racingline unit has all that and a high flow baffle system that still works even when 3/4 full. As you can see the car hasn't been upgraded since I've last blogged, but the OEM upgrades are very rewarding. An OEM+ brake upgrade is in the works and a new rim and tire setup too.  Stay tuned.
