The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2007 by Dior and crafted by François Demachy, Eau Sauvage Fraicheur Cuir is a modern interpretation of the classic Eau Sauvage. This fragrance opens with the vibrant freshness of Amalfi lemon, which contrasts beautifully with the warmth and depth of Virginia cedar and leather in its heart. The base notes of leather and amber create a subtle smoky and powdery finish that lingers on the skin, making it feel both fresh and sophisticated.
Apply this fragrance to your pulse points for a steady release throughout the day. The Amalfi lemon top note fades quickly, so it's best to layer with the woody and leather base notes to maintain its full character. This scent reads better close to skin than from across a room, making it perfect for daytime wear.

François Demachy
Dior's guardian of dreamsFrançois Demachy is the in-house perfumer-creator at Christian Dior, a title that places him among the most influential noses in the world. Born in Cannes and raised in Grasse — the historic capital of perfumery — he carries the craft in his blood.
“Early on, I memorised a whole host of notes without even realising it. I could recognise moss and flowers. My nose educated itself.”
