Description
Cuir Infrarouge is one of the most boldly original releases from the French house — a fragrance that takes the contrast between vibrant raspberry and deep, grained leather and turns it into something genuinely thrilling. It shouldn't work on paper, but in practice it is captivating from the first spray to the final dry-down hours later.
The opening is vivid and immediately striking — raspberry and bergamot arrive with a brightness that feels almost electric, underpinned by a warm cinnamon spice. As the composition develops, a cedar and orris heart adds powdery, woody depth that begins to bridge the fruit and the leather. The base is where Cuir Infrarouge truly reveals itself: a rich, grained leather accord deepened by oud and patchouli, with vanilla softening the edges into something luxurious and long-lasting. The extrait concentration amplifies every dimension — projection is bold, longevity is exceptional. This is a fragrance for those who want to be noticed.
