What does Cuir Cannage smell like?
Leather leads, with jasmine, iris, rose and orange blossom reading together as one. The flowers bring a sweet, powdery softness, while the leather pulls the scent towards something smoky, spicy and faintly animal. A woody, oriental warmth sits underneath.
Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and it leans towards evenings and nights out. Votes for feminine and masculine are almost level, so both read it as their own. Chanel Cuir de Russie and Maître Parfumeur et Gantier Cuir Fétiche have a close profile.
