Heeley Cuir Pleine Fleur is a unisex scent that sets a floral heart on a leathery, smoky and animalic base, and sits most comfortably in fall and spring.

What does Cuir Pleine Fleur smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall, followed by spring and winter, with summer last. Business, leisure and evening wear are voted almost evenly. More voters call it masculine than feminine, though the feminine vote is sizeable, so it reads as unisex. It has been discontinued.

It opens with cinnamon, Italian bergamot and violet leaf, spicy and green. In the heart, rose, mimosa, honey and suede sweeten the florals and soften the leather. The base of Atlas cedar, birch, vetiver and castoreum leaves a woody, smoky, animalic trail.
