What does Cuir-Curcuma smell like?

Cuir-Curcuma earns good ratings for both longevity and sillage. Most voters pick fall and winter, with spring not far behind. Evening, leisure and night-out wear lead the occasions. It reads more masculine to most voters, though a fair share see it as feminine.

Leather and turmeric set the main line of the scent. Sandalwood and patchouli lay a woody, earthy foundation, while myrrh adds a resinous depth. Latte macchiato brings a creamy sweetness that softens the spicy, leathery edge. The overall impression is warm, oriental and full.
