Cuir de Cerise by Bortnikoff was launched in 2026, crafted by Dmitry Bortnikoff to create an Oriental Woody fragrance that defies conventional expectations. This composition opens with a striking contrast of sour cherry and saffron, juxtaposing the tartness of fruit with the warmth of leather and smoky oud. The heart reveals osmanthus and apricot, adding a soft floral touch that complements the overall richness without overpowering it. The base notes of olive, nagarmotha, and agarwood create an enveloping animalic depth, making this fragrance both distinctive and deeply engaging.

Application Tips
Apply Cuir de Cerise to pulse points for a warm, close-to-skin presence that allows the rich base notes to unfold gradually. The sour cherry and saffron top notes are fleeting, so focus on letting the smoky and leathery heart and base take center stage.

The quiet intimacy of a dimly lit room where the scent of leather-bound books mingles with the subtle sweetness of ripe cherries.
