Description

Cuir Nappa by Première Note presents a sophisticated take on leather, opening with a bright, green floral jasmine intertwined with a sweet, tangy raspberry accord. As it settles, the renowned nappa leather note takes center stage, showcasing its complex character with both a refined softness and subtle animalic depth. The fragrance then gracefully transitions into a creamy, woody, and musky base, providing a smooth and assertive finish that lingers beautifully. This scent offers a modern interpretation of a classic material, feeling both elegant and approachable. Perfumer: Patrice Revillard
