Guerlain Cuir Intense

Unique scent profile, and very loud. This perfume projects and lasts for a long time. If sprayed on clothes, it'll take a few washes to get the smell out. If sprayed on skin, it'll last up to 24hours! It is a fairly linear scent, however after a harsh opening, the dry down offers some tobacco and wood notes, and even some slight floral notes. Its definitely a fragrance more suitable for the colder seasons. Although presented as a unisex fragrance, in my opinion, it leans a bit masculine. Thats not to say a female can't rock it! The price is fair, especially for a perfume that is so potent and longlasting. It smells similar to one of the Boadicea the Victorious scents (name escapes me) which is hundreds of more £'s. This is definitely not a blind buy safe fragrance and online reviews can be misleading, as some reviews swear by it, and ratings online being very high. This perfume can definitely be offensive, especially on a warm day, in enclosed spaces. In my opinion, this scent is just okay. The price is good, the brand is great and the longevity and strength of the perfume is excellent. If you enjoy scents like Tom Ford's Hombre Leather, or Orto Parisi Cuoium, this may well be for you. If you dislike overpowering leathers, get your nose on this at the shops before buying!
