Cuir Amethyste is a powerful leather fragrance, which joined the Privé Haute Couture Fragrance Collection in 2005 as its fifth fragrance. It is a mesmerizing composition that leads us to a unique experience: a voyage for the senses, between the reassuring smell of leather and the far-away origins of the other materials, between known and unknown. The warm, rich, and powerful composition includes the noble notes of birch (which gives a smoky leather nuance), patchouli, and the powdery note of violet in the heart. The opening blends bergamot, coriander, and rose. The base includes benzoin, incense, and Bourbon vanilla.
