    What do reviewers say about Cuir Velours and Skin on Skin?

    The immortelle and rum sound like a folk remedy. The leather and frankincense sound like something ancient. Together, they make something that shouldn't work but absolutely does.Cuir Velours
    This is the fragrance for people who don't need the room to know. Restrained sillage, skin-close warmth, and a suede-iris drydown that rewards proximity over projection.Skin on Skin
