What does Cuir de Russie (2017) smell like?

Its longevity is rated good while the sillage stays moderate, so it sits close to the skin and keeps you company for a long while. It is classed as feminine.

It opens with cumin, sandalwood and clove, giving a dry, spiced start. In the heart, vetiver, patchouli and cedarwood build the woody core. The base is softened by resinous benzoin, while nagarmotha and oud deepen the animal, smoky, oriental side. Dior Leather Oud and Boadicea the Victorious Victory have a close profile.
