Suederal LT 2010/2020 (I)

Refined Suede & Modern Leather Accord

Suederal LT 2010/2020 from IFF is a contemporary reinterpretation of the iconic Suederal leather accord, crafted to deliver a soft, elegant suede effect with enhanced diffusion and modern substantivity.

Designed for today’s fine fragrance and functional perfumery, this low-tar (LT) version offers exceptional smoothness while preserving the unmistakable sensuality of supple leather.

Opening with clean, airy leather facets, Suederal LT quickly reveals a velvety suede heart, subtly animalic yet polished, free from harsh smoky or phenolic edges.

The dry-down is warm, musky, and gently ambery, lending depth, roundness, and a tactile skin-like quality that blends seamlessly into both classic and avant-garde compositions.

Prized for its ability to elevate leather structures, reinforce floral cores, or add a refined sensual undertone to woods, ambers and musks; this updated 2010/2020 iteration offers improved stability, cleaner diffusion and longer-lasting performance, making it an indispensable tool for perfumers seeking modern leather elegance without aggression.

Suederal LT 2010/2020 represents the refined leather style favoured in contemporary niche and luxury perfumery, where a soft, enveloping suede effect is preferred over overt smoke or bitterness.

Its smooth, modern leather profile aligns with the aesthetic found in fragrances such as Tom Ford – Tuscan Leather, YSL Babycat, Hermès Osmanthe Yunnan, and Le Labo Santal 33—scents that showcase leather as polished, sensual, and seamlessly blended, rather than raw or abrasive.

While exact formulas remain proprietary, Suederal-type leather bases are widely used to achieve this clean, luxurious leather signature, making LT 2010/2020 ideal for recreating or modernising contemporary leather accords.

Compared to Classic Leather Materials
