BDK Parfums Creme de Cuir EDP (Tester)
Description
BDK Parfums Crème de Cuir Eau de Parfum is a 2018 release from the Paris niche house, created by perfumer Violaine Collas. Juicy pineapple and citrus — grapefruit, bergamot, mandarin — open into a soft white-suede heart brightened with pink pepper, before settling into a warm, musky base of cashmeran, vanilla, and birch. It's a leather fragrance built without harsh animalic notes: closer to skin-soft suede than a biker jacket.
