Phoenician Leather by James Heeley is a Leather fragrance for women and men. This is a new fragrance. Phoenician Leather was launched in 2025. The nose behind this fragrance is James Heeley.

Phoenician Leather is a 2025 reformulation of the original Phoenicia (2014), a woody-smoky leather fragrance by independent perfumer James Heeley. The composition opens with smoky frankincense and earthy birch, evoking the scent of distant Mediterranean trade routes. The heart develops around labdanum—a warm, resinous note—complemented by the honeyed sweetness of sun-dried dates and subtle leather accords. The base unfolds with earthy vetiver, creamy sandalwood, and amber, creating a composition that blends sensual warmth with refined restraint. The fragrance emphasizes subtle blending and sophisticated minimalism rather than bold projection, appealing to those who prefer understated elegance and complex woody-aromatic structures over prominent individual notes.
