Oriza L. Legrand - Cuir de l’Aigle Russe
Originally created in 1892, Cuir de l'Aigle Russe is an elegant and majestic composition that conjures up the days of the Russian aristocracy's love affair with rich fragrances so refined they had no equals.
Cuir de l'Aigle Russe is a gleaming samovar at the centre of a smoking room hung with gold brocades shimmering with colour.
Its heady mixture of blond tobaccos and smoked teas will revive once-distant memories of the Russia of the Tsars…
Despite its long list of notes, Cuir de L’Aiglie Russe is remarkably compact, and modishly elegant. Earthy, bright and powdery, when this leather comes to rest it is unmistakably soft-spoken, in dulcet tones. A perfect match for those in possession (or in search) of a grounded gentility.
