Default New owner....Any way to tell the difference between leather and Nuluxe?

I recently bought a 2015 RC-F USB with black interior. The car only had 7600 miles and looked brand new except for some light swirling in the paint which is an easy fix. I was trying to search the forum but couldn't get a clear answer about how to tell nuluxe from leather.
From what I've found I think that only the Red and Grey interiors are leather and the black is Nuluxe..is that correct or is black available in leather as well?
Someone posted a comparison pic of nuluxe and leather citing that the leather had the contrast stitching...so I'm a little confused as to what I have in my car so I can clean it correctly.
thanks

I have real black leather in my RCF and it looks exactly as pictured with the stiching.
