Launched in 2019 by MDCI Parfums, Cuir Cavalier is a Leather fragrance crafted by Nathalie Feisthauer. The composition opens with the sharp scent of blood mandarin and saffron, creating an immediate tension that's both unexpected and intriguing. As it settles, rose and iris add soft floral notes to balance the warmth of oud and cedar, while leather and animalic musk anchor the fragrance with a deep, earthy presence.
