Let us introduce you to Moreca Leather Goods, a high-end company based in Ukraine that makes everything from satchels to lunch bags. The Ukrainian brand designs and sells products that combine a sleek, high-end aesthetic and an old-world handcrafted sensibility.

Their products are simple and dominated by clean lines. The Bifold Noir, for instance, has a compartment for your cash, two credit card slots—that fit up to eight cards for all you high rollers—and two brass buttons to secure the wallet shut.

But Moreca’s goods riff on the tradition of clean and simple design by adding unexpected twists. The Noir is asymmetrical, creating a cliffside effect when closed and a mountain silhouette when open. The teeter-totter effect of the criss-crossing card slot lines makes the wallet feel playful, taking what could be a run-of-the-mill product and making it visually appealing. All of Moreca’s products, in fact, are like geometric poetry.

The premium black chrome tanned leather will only get better with age—developing a deep patina over time, making it the perfect gift for your future grandson. The high level of quality and craftsmanship spans their entire collection.

Moreca also offers laptop pouches to protect your tech, fly pouches (which are perfect for travel—you’ll never again have to worry about losing your passport) and an everyday-use pouch, which could be the answer to organizing your messy attaché.

The company, founded in 2009 and based in Kiev, is spearheaded by two brothers: Anton and Oleg Duma. Born to a family of aviators, no wonder the designs these brothers come up with seem like travel essentials.

Another product that caught our eye? The lunch bag. A simple fold-over bag made from rich black leather. Now you can brown bag it every day in style.

Whether it's a first date, a job interview, meeting your fiance's parents for the first time, or any other host of times when interacting with someone, mastering the art of first impressions is the most integral step in building rapport. Even though we are all taught from the beginning never to judge a book by its cover, human nature and the evolution of survival have instilled in us the instinct to decide on someone or something in the first few seconds. Long ago, on the plains, to avoid being eaten or conquered, to today, to avoid being scammed or having our hearts broken, the instinct lives on. And this goes so much deeper than your wardrobe.

But how do you develop the first impression? How do you master the art of attracting people to you, building a rapport from the ground up? The answer is to focus on the messages you send and how they translate to the person's impressions of you. They take you in using their five senses, and therefore you have to consider each one of them to avoid offending one and leaving that person thinking something negative about you. Here are the five ways to master first impressions by focusing on the five senses.
