Leather notes have been part of the history of perfumery since the origins of cuir de Russie. In today's niche perfumery, leather is reinterpreted with unexpected textures and contrasts: raspberry red, warm spices, noble woods or a whisper of oud. Today we present a highly anticipated novelty: Cuir InfraRouge by Maison Crivelli, a perfume extract that surprises with its luminosity and enveloping character.
Maison Crivelli · Cuir InfraRouge (Extrait de Parfum)
It is not "just another leather". Its opening is sparkling and luminous thanks to raspberry combined with bergamot. The inspiration comes from a real experience of its creator: an evening of electronic music with a raspberry cocktail. As it evolves, the fragrance becomes creamier with cinnamon, cedar, osmanthus flower and orris root. In the background, oud wood, vanilla and the long-awaited leather note emerge, exotic and addictive. The duration is excellent and the projection outstanding: we are facing a perfume extract.
What is a perfume extract?
The term refers to the concentration of aromatic essential oils dissolved in alcohol (and sometimes water). This proportion determines intensity, duration on the skin and, in general, the price. By approximate levels of concentration, the most common categories are: Eau de Cologne, Eau de Toilette, Eau de Parfum and Extrait de Parfum (extract), where the percentage of oils is higher and the olfactory experience is more opulent and persistent.
Conclusion: if you are attracted to leather notes with a modern and luminous twist, Cuir InfraRouge is a bold and highly addictive interpretation.
