Crème de Cuir by bdk Parfums GIVEAWAY
Parfumo gives these featured accords:
Top: Mandarin, Bergamot, Pineapple
Heart: Pink pepper, Sun note, Suede, Sandalwood
Base: Vanilla absolute, Birch, Musk
Fizzy, fruity opening that feels like it’s got a bunch of aldehydes perking it up. I don’t really get a pineapple note, more like a tropical fruit juice.
The hearts ozonics are warm and balmy, with a light creamy yang/sandalwood sweetness. Skirting suntan lotion but held back by the woodsiness.
The leather is very worn and comfortable. The cleanest leather ever. Vanilla and sandalwood help make it smell expensive and lavish. A leather gourmand but not but kinda but not.
This bottle was bought from Libertine Parfumerie. They are the distributors for bdk Parfums in Australia. Special thanks go to Paige for getting it to me.
Leave a comment below. Four lucky people from anywhere in the world will get a decant.
Have you tried this beauty?

I never heard of this house. It sounds like vintage aldehydic frags but more fruity than floral. I might like it. I always look for a fruity frag I like since that isn’t my gig. I do love leather!

I love leather type fragrances in general but i don’t think that i’ve ever tried one with this particular combo suede/tropical vibe, gourmand leather. It sounds very good 👌🏻. Thank you for the last Pacific rock moss giveaway win and congrats to the others winners 🤗

I have tried this, and it was too much skank for me – but that’s because my s’in turns pineapple notes into BO. So please DNEM. 🙂
