This fragrance is wild, erotic, and intoxicating. It straddles the line between boldness and softness. The vanilla is animalic, think: vanilla pods, not vanilla ice cream. The woody notes come from vetiver, and we don’t use a brazen bourbon vetiver but a softer, sweeter north Indian green vetiver. Hints of incense, tonka, and the sultry hum of narcotic white flowers. Above all, leather. Maybe our best leather yet.
Also, see that incredible model in that pic? That’s my sister in all her 80s denim-clad glory.

This smells like getting your best leather jacket back from your meemaw after she's made her state fair award winning vanilla cookies. Rich, full vanilla and dark leather. Fantastic.
Wow—this was love at first sniff. As someone who appreciates everything from sweet gourmands and bright florals to deep, sexy tobaccos and bold leathers, I have to say: Tomboy checks all the sexy tobacco and bold leather boxes. MDA makes some of the best tobacco and leather-based fragrances I’ve ever smelled, and Tomboy is no exception. The blend of vanilla, bourbon, and vetiver creates an addictive opening—warm, slightly boozy, and perfectly balanced. Then the leather rolls in, rich and unapologetic, softened just enough by tonka, labdanum, and that signature MDA depth. The olibanum adds a touch of smoke and mystery, giving this a cool edge without being too sharp. This is a true unisex scent, but on my skin, it leans warm and a little sweet in the drydown—which I absolutely adore. Tomboy is confident, cozy, and effortlessly cool. I’m obsessed.
So I’m working my way through some discovery sets, and I went to test a new one this morning but Tomboy is still lingering on my arms from the night before, so I’m testing it all over again from the beginning.
The opening note of leather in this is very strong, yet supple, and sweetened by the boozy vanilla. Vetiver and frankincense are lending some dry, smoky, and spicy nuances. Most of these notes burn off after many hours and I’m left with a smooth, but not too sweet vanilla drydown. Very impressed!
I bought this originally as a sample just ordered a full bottle! This is a stunning mix that is so sexy, is it moves through the notes and it lasts a very long time I couldn't stop smelling myself. I am not a vanilla person but I love a good leather this changed my mind the vanilla makes the leather so grown up sexy
Oh my gosh, this is IT! Slightly smells like your dad's classic aftershave at first, then dries down to the most lovely sweet vanilla, with the spicy, masculine undertones. I LOVE this scent! It's so unique and lasts forever on me!
