Cuir Cuba Intense by Nicolai Parfumeur Créateur was launched in 2014 and is the creation of Patricia de Nicolai. This fragrance is a complex interplay of spicy, aromatic, and tobacco notes, anchored by a rich leather base. The composition opens with licorice and star anise, which blend seamlessly into a heart of lavender and ylang-ylang, adding depth and warmth. The base notes of tobacco, hay, patchouli, cedar, civet, and liatris create a luxurious smokiness that lingers on the skin.

The story behind the bottle.
The quiet intensity of an after-hours study, where the scent of aged books and smoldering tobacco mingles with the faint aroma of spices.
