What do reviewers say about Cuir Mauresque and No3 Cuir Amber?
Civet is a signature element here, and the cumin and styrax smoke add a distinctive character that divides opinion. Either you're drawn to that raw, animalic skin scent into the drydown.Cuir Mauresque
This is leather that knows it's leather and doesn't care who notices. Russian leather, not the sanitized stuff, the real kind, animalic and warm, softened by powdery iris and vanilla absolute.No3 Cuir Amber
