Les Exclusifs de Chanel Cuir de Russie 1924 is a Leather fragrance for women that channels the sophistication and elegance of its French heritage. Launched in 2007, it was crafted by Ernest Beaux, known for his innovative approach to composition. The scent opens with bright citrus notes like bergamot and lemon, which give way to a complex heart of floral essences such as jasmine and rose. The base is dominated by rich leather, birch, tobacco, and musk, creating a warm, smoky ambiance that feels both lasting and luxurious.

Application Tips
Apply this fragrance in light layers; the rich base notes require time to develop fully. It reads best close to the skin, so a few sprays directly on pulse points will allow it to bloom gradually throughout the day.
Ernest Beaux
Founding perfumer · 18 fragrances · b. 1881 · French
“I presented Mademoiselle Chanel with samples numbered one through five, and twenty through twenty-four. She chose number five.”
Ernest Beaux is the perfumer who changed everything. Born in Moscow to a Franco-Russian family, he served as an officer in World War I before entering the laboratories of A. Rallet & Co. in Grasse. In 1921, he presented Coco Chanel with a series of experimental samples — and sample number five became Chanel No. 5, arguably the most famous fragrance ever created. By boldly incorporating synthetic aldehydes into a floral bouquet, Beaux shattered the conventions of natural perfumery and ushered in the modern age. His legacy is not merely a fragrance but an entirely new way of thinking about scent.
