Byredo’s Cuir Sellier Night Veils offers an unbridled concentration of leather that transports you to a vintage smoking room where aged leather, tobacco leaves, and antique books converge. This perfume extract delivers a bold, sombre, and smoky expression of leather that feels both refined and raw.
Development, From Smoked Warmth to Earthy Sophistication
Cuir Sellier opens with a rich blend of cashmeran and black tea that sets a smoky, resinous stage. The heart unveils a potent leather accord intertwined with dried tobacco leaves, evoking the scent of well-worn club chairs. In the dry down, birch tree and oakmoss lend forest floor earthiness that grounds the composition in natural depth.
