What does Cuir Blanc smell like?

The scent is built on white leather, white musk and white pepper. A fresh, floral base lets the leathery side come forward, the pepper keeps the spice light, and the musk gathers the sweet and powdery tones into a soft finish. Woody and oriental touches stay in the background.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick it for daytime and leisure, though some wear it to the office or for a night out. It has an easygoing, unisex character. Evody Cuir Blanc and Pills Parfums Supermusk have a close profile.
