    After falling head over heels in love with Bois de Iles, I had to explore the Exclusifs line further. I found that Cuir de Russie has many of same qualities. They both make you feel enveloped in...

    A number of years ago, a friend sent me a decant of some very vintage Cuir de Russie. One drop instantaneously called to mind what the interior of a brand-new, Jazz Age Bugatti must have smelled...

    My first exposure to Chanel's Cuir de Russie occurred in 1958, or thereabouts, when a woman whose child I babysat for gave me a whiff from her tiny bottle of the parfum. Even then, as a teenager,...

    On my search for my favourite perfume, I have bought hundreds of bottles over the years. Many times I find something and fall for it, only to get bored, or find the quality lacking after prolonged...

    To be fair, I am not a fan of leather in fragrances. I'm not sure why I would want to smell like my favorite coat. But I love almost anything Chanel, so I wanted to try this. I will say that for...

    I never want to be without this. It is elegant and sophisticated; rich and complex. On my skin the scent goes through many phases and all of them are lovely. First it is an empty box that used...

    A good no nonsense leather centered scent. But then I bought a vintage mint bottle from the 1930's....another animal entirely. The vintage is dark and dusky leather with a hint of vanilla and...

    Chanel's Cuir de Russie, composed by the legendary Ernst Beaux, is an absolute masterpiece, and one of my absolute favourite fragrances. The leather of its name is given an air of luxury through...
