Character & development on the skin

Fragrance profile

Cuir Elite follows in the great tradition of cognac-leather fragrances, yet translates it into a contemporary, softer language. The opening crackles with cognac, saffron, cardamom, coriander and thyme – a warm, spicy start that instantly brings to mind dark wood and well-aged spirits. At the heart, a surprisingly floral element rises: iris, rose and violet, threaded with davana and a sweet plum note, balance the severity of the top notes. The base then delivers the main attraction – supple leather, carried by cypriol, sandalwood and vetiver, embedded in a warm foundation of amber, vanilla and musk that stays on the skin for hours.

Who is this fragrance for?

WHEN & HOW TO WEAR IT

A glass of cognac by the fireside, an elegant leather armchair, the scent of a well-kept salon – Cuir Elite brings this world straight to your skin. It suits a discerning evening just as well as relaxed everyday wear or an office day with a dress code. It is at its best in spring, autumn and winter – cooler air carries its spicy, leathery aura particularly beautifully.

- ideal for date nights, the club, everyday and the office
- perfect for spring, autumn and winter
- very high intensity, excellent longevity and powerful sillage

The owner was wonderfully warm and really took her time with me, even though I turned up at the last minute. Honestly, the advice was some of the best I’ve ever had – I immediately felt welcome and in good hands. What I especially loved: there was zero sales pressure. I could take my time smelling, just go with the flow, and even left with a few small samples of my favourites.

“

Super-fast delivery, first-class quality and free samples with a personal note from the owners on top. It really doesn’t get any better. From now on, this is the only place I’ll order my perfumes!

Friendly and reliable contact, lovingly packed with a handwritten note, samples of my choice and a little extra on top. Absolutely unbeatable!

I’m usually a regular at the other well-known perfumery in Mannheim, but today I tried Essence Garden for the first time, looking for a new coconut fragrance. The advice I received was excellent: the lady was very knowledgeable and friendly and left a wonderful impression. A truly fantastic shop – 10 out of 10!

“

Packed with incredible effort and attention to detail, plus little extras. Unpacking the parcel felt like unwrapping a present. A wonderful experience! Shipping was also really quick. I’m very happy and can only give it my wholehearted recommendation! 10/10!

Really wonderful perfumery with super friendly owners. The advice was great – they took their time without ever being pushy. The selection of fragrances is excellent. To top it all off, I was given a free sample of my choice. Service like that can’t be taken for granted. I’ll definitely be back.

I’d ordered a few samples online. Everything arrived very quickly, was packed really nicely, and there was an extra sample and a handwritten greeting card too. All done with so much care. Absolutely top – it doesn’t get better than this.
