Black leather is a leather note that perfumers construct from several materials rather than take from leather itself. The scent of leather has traditionally been either strong and sweet-smoky, or more refined, leathery and woody with floral overtones.

Bundles of 200-year-old leather hides were raised from a wreck, and the inner hides, protected by a thick coating of mud, proved to be supple, aromatic reindeer hides. Under Henry III, gloves were even worn to sleep.

Birch bark tar is made by dry distillation of birch tree bark. The distilled oil is dephenolized and washed in an alkaline medium before perfumery use. Castoreum is extracted with alcohol from the dried and crushed castor sacs.

U parfemima
Castoreum is largely used for its note suggesting leather, and is typically compounded with other ingredients. Around the turn of the twentieth century, birch bark tar became a specialty fragrance material in perfumery, used as a base note to give a leathery, smoky note. It is used especially in the leather and tobacco genre, and to a lesser extent in chypres, typically together with castoreum and isobutyl quinoline.
