Cuir Sauvage by edeniste

With edeniste, science and scents combine to elevate you mood which is something we dig at DC HQ.

Cuir Sauvage is the pick of the bunch. A woody, powdery oud crafted to enhance its sensual and animal facets, with an unexpected bouquet of spicy notes. Saffron, for its subtle suede-like tones. Spanish thyme essential oil, for its penetrating aromatic scent. And anise essence from China to spike the blend. Its green aromatic facets echo the deeper, liquorice and almond tonka bean absolute from Brazil.
