The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Fétiche Le Cuir by Christian Louboutin, launched in 2024 and crafted by perfumer Juliette Karagueuzoglou, is a bold exploration of leather accords. The fragrance opens with a bright fruity freshness that contrasts sharply with the deep, animalic undertones of its base. This tension between light and dark creates a compelling narrative: the top notes evoke a crisp morning, while the heart and base envelop you in warm, smoky musk and floral whispers. It's a composition that feels both modern and lasting.

How to wear it

Apply Fétiche Le Cuir close to your skin for a more personal experience; it reads better up close than from across a room. The fruity top notes dissipate quickly, so rely on the base notes to carry you through the day.
