I get dirt and fresh grass and caramel, with a little leather and a touch of beer.

Sweet and grassy/earthy

Is it in any way similar to Passiflora?

No not even close really lol

Passiflora to me is green in the way a succulent plant smells if you break off a stem, plus some unripened passion fruit.

No, it's nowhere close. Totally different scent profiles. Hard to describe really.

Only in so far as its shaving soap and made by B&M. Apart from that, no similarity at all.

Shaving soap: yes
B&M: yes
Same scent: no

Alright cool. So I'll expect them to be 66% similar.

BTW if you're craving an EdT of Leviathan, check out Dior Leather Oud from their fancy exclusive line. It's not a dead ring for Leviathan necessarily, but it's at least a BFF, I'd say, with that civet-and-leather (and cardamom?) effect.

Meantime, a fresh B&M order brought me Glissant Seville, upgrading a top-five favorite, and First Snow, which I really appreciate not only for really smelling like my dad's leather jacket in winter, but for not being overly strong, which is sometimes exactly what I want. Nice stuff!
David : DE shaving since Nov 2014. Nowadays giving in to the single-edge siren call.

Disagree. But noses are very different in what scents we perceive.

I get leather, dark roasted coffee and musk from my Leviathan soap.

I get a very pronounced fecal shitty manure note from Dior Leather Oud.
