Ginger and melon turn animalic against suede and warm labdanum.
Fresh ginger and ripe melon open sparkling and a little sharp, with ylang ylang and bruised peach softening it into something musky and fruit forward. Labdanum, patchouli and a faux suede and latex accord pull the drydown warm, animalic and slightly synthetic.
Perfumed by: Valery Mikhalitcyn
KSI Take: It takes the Cuir de Russie idea somewhere stranger with a latex and faux suede accord instead of straight birch tar leather, and that plastic edge will put off anyone looking for a classic smoky leather. Wear it in cooler weather, close to the skin, for something intimate and a little unusual rather than a loud leather statement.
