Smell test: Genuine leather has a distinct natural scent that's warm and rich, while synthetic materials often have a chemical or plastic smell.
Texture and imperfections: Real leather has a slightly uneven texture with natural imperfections, while synthetic leather typically has a perfectly uniform pattern.
Absorption test: Place a small drop of water on the surface (in an inconspicuous area). Real leather will temporarily absorb the water, while synthetic leather will have water beads sit on top.
Edge examination: Look at the edges or unfinished areas. Genuine leather has a fibrous, natural appearance at cut edges, while synthetic materials have a smooth, uniform edge.
