The original Discover Collection by the fragrance house Banana Republic was expanded in 2009 with the addition of the men's scent Cordovan. The elegant wooden case and solid glass bottle are rendered in a rich, dark burgundy hue, symbolizing the renowned Cordovan leather. This material is famed for its unique quality - it combines astonishing softness and pliability with incredible durability. Thus, the Cordovan scent reflects the masculinity and firmness of character of its wearer, accentuating his impeccable taste and refined style, while hinting at a tender heart.
The fragrance composition of Banana Republic's Cordovan opens with the fresh sound of green fig leaves, the tartness of bergamot, and the spicy shade of nutmeg. At the heart of the perfume, cool notes of lavender and the tart sweetness of white juniper berries are added to the bouquet. A noble base is formed by the scent of vintage leather combined with the soft powdery accords of violet root and the woody aroma of vetiver.
Interesting scent, long-lasting. I bought it based on reviews and I wasn't disappointed. I like it. However, there is a small correction needed in the description - the case/box is not made of wood...
