What does Cuir Belga smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are rated good, though the small number of votes makes that a tentative read. There are no season or occasion votes, so no particular time of year stands out, but it sits comfortably on both men and women.

It starts bright and lightly fruity with aldehydes and tangerine. At the heart, patchouli and immortelle lay down a woody, spicy ground. The base of amber, heliotrope, vanilla and suede turns creamy, powdery and sweet around a leather core. Guerlain Cuir Béluga (Eau de Parfum) and Routine Paris Pouvoir Noir have a close profile.
