Launched in 2013, Kuhuyan by Parfums de Marly is a complex leather fragrance created by Alexandra Kosinski. It opens with the freshness of violet leaf and jasmine, before transitioning into an animalic heart where leather and heliotrope create a warm embrace. The base notes of oud, ambergris, and tonka bean add depth and richness, grounding the composition in earthy warmth.

Apply Kuhuyan close to your pulse points for best effect, as it develops slowly on skin. The ozonic top notes are fleeting, but the warm base notes will linger through the day.
