Oriza L. Legrand
Cuir de l‘Aigle Russe
$260
Classical | Soft | Classy
OUR VERDICT
Elegant, imperial, and majestic, Cuir de l’Aigle Russe tells the Great Story of Russian aristocracy’s immoderate love for rich fragrances and their unequalled sophistication.
This is an old perfume from a tradition of old perfumery, of incredible dry expanse, a texture of strewn herbs and old lavender, of the most refined and sparkling of powders – all resting on a subtle lavender note. In this regard, Cuir has a discernible Fougère-like profile, and merely suggests an idea of leather through bitter, green, aromatic, and medicinal notes. A dark cologne with a woody base.
Cuir de l’Aigle Russe is like a samovar gleaming in the middle of a smoking lounge, its walls hung with shimmering gold brocades. Its dancing billows of blond tobacco and smoked tea revive the distant memories of the Czarist Russia, whose crest featured a double-headed eagle.
Top Notes: Coriander, Lavender, Davana, Bergamot, Cade
