Cuir Pleine Fleur
Cuir Pleine Fleur by Heeley is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with violet leaf and bergamot, moves into mimosa, suede and rose and dries down to vetiver, castoreum, birch and atlas cedar. Expect around 7 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Violet Leaf Crisp, watery green with a metallic edge. Cool rather than fresh.
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
Heart
- Mimosa Soft, powdery, honeyed yellow flower. Gentle and comforting.
- Suede Soft, powdery leather. Much gentler than the real thing.
- Rose Can be jammy, green, peppery or soapy depending on the type. Not one smell.
Dry-down
- Vetiver Dry, earthy, smoky grass root. Smells like soil and citrus peel.
- Castoreum Leathery, smoky and warm. Adds depth and a bit of danger.
- Birch Clean pale wood. The leaves, not the tar.
- Atlas Cedar Smoother, resinous cedar. Warmer than the Virginia type.
