Cuir Venitien

First off, the confusion based around the note pyramid. It confuses me that people have voted rose to be the least distinguishable note. As I understand that smell is a highly personal thing, I'm totally letting this go because... it's a non-issue. Buyers know that this can be a very rose heavy scent, though. Along with personally finding this to be quite a rose laden scent, I will lend my favour to it being incredibly zesty and quite floral and woody. It's not the type of thing you smell everyday and this is what seems to set this apart from many different leather based fragrances. What is listed as passionfruit does seem to be that one thing you wouldn't find in a leather scent, along with aquaticism, but the Cuir collection is rather varied in this aspect. I've only tried two, but I have two more 5mL samples coming my way to properly explore. What I get from this is something that I can't quite describe. Having never been to the lands that this was based off of, I can't compare. What I can say is that it isn't too heavy on the leather like one would expect. The leather seems to circulate other, more central notes. It is, at heart, zesty and floral. It doesn't develop a whole lot on my skin, which I was initially disappointed by, but it really does seem that the personal one note affair is a good one. The sample will be enough for me, but that doesn't mean I haven't enjoyed it. I repeat, this is VERY zesty

This is Mysterious, seductive, femme fatale, villain princess. Maybe some geranium which gifts the perfume a powdery facet... love smelling a little bit of LEATHER which is responsible for deep mysterious side of this bouqeut. I love how every time of wear this perfume everyone notices my floral-powdery fragrance and when I return home at night my room smells like theres a window opening to a garden of flowers. I give a 10 outa 10

I absolutely love this fragrance. It's a must if you love fruit scents but Kirke is too much for you. This is a beautiful summer sweet fruity scent that is not too strong but has enough projection to enjoy it. It's not about rose or leather at all but it's still so beautiful that I regret nothing.

اولین بار که بوش کردم احساس کردم یه بوی شیرینی ای داره میاد و نمیفهمم از چیه، یه بویی شبیه انگور سیاه ، بعد یه بوی گرم و گلی میاد که شبیه شمعدونیه همراه با حس مخملی گل های سفید... بعد چندساعت بوی چرمیشو بیشتر تونستم تشخیص بدم که لابلای راهروهای تو در توی این عطر مخفی شده...

A lot of musk , fruit and a bit of leather. Can't find the rose in this scent. it reminds me of a box of washing powder. Don't like this one a all

Meh. A confused mish mash of notes. In the beginning it was fleetingly interesting and I was reminded of Selperniku of all things. A bit fruity and a bit buttery. I didn't get rose. Pretty quickly is settled into a fruity musk. Since others rate musk as the most prominent note and my skin has a tendency to flatten musk notes, I'm guessing this is the source of my indifference.
