Cuir de Russie

Cuir de Russie unfolds with spiced warmth—cardamom and pepper cut through honeyed styrax and bright citrus, a sharp-sweet opening that feels almost medicinal. The heart pivots toward leather, leather deepening as laurel and cinnamon wrap around patchouli and cedar, while neroli adds a ghost of green florality. As it settles, oakmoss and amber emerge from beneath, grounding everything in earthy, resinous depth—olibanum and sandalwood create a leathered skin-scent final act, warm musk and labdanum lingering like aged hide and incense smoke.
