Cuir Velouté
suede · saffron · myrrh
Suede and saffron open on a soft warmth, then leather settles at the heart, among white flowers and vetiver. The base of caramel, amber and labdanum lingers on your skin long after. Wear it in autumn or winter, when the evenings grow long and your trail needs a little softness.
