What does Crème de Cuir (Eau de Parfum) smell like?
Voters find both its longevity and its sillage good. Most lean towards fall and spring, with winter not far behind, and leisure, daily wear and the office come up most often. Opinion on whether it reads feminine or masculine is split, with a slight edge to feminine.
The top is bergamot, pineapple and mandarin orange: citrusy, lightly sweet and bright. In the heart, pink pepper adds spice, sandalwood a woody warmth and suede a soft, leathery touch. The base of musk, vanilla absolute and birch keeps it creamy, sweet and leathery.
