About this fragrance
Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.
Cuir Beluga (2005) is a unisex leather from Guerlain that opens with a bright, aldehydic tangerine—a sparkling top that quickly gives way to a heart of immortelle and patchouli. The immortelle brings a hay-like, subtly maple sweetness, while patchouli adds an earthy depth. The base is where the fragrance settles into its signature: a soft, powdery suede wrapped in vanilla, heliotrope, and amber. The vanilla is dominant (100% accord), but it's not a gourmand vanilla—it's dry, enveloping, and slightly musky. The leather is more suede than animalic, making it approachable for those who find traditional leathers harsh. Powdery and sweet facets round it out, with a herbal touch from the immortelle. This is a skin-scent leather, intimate rather than projecting. It suits collectors who appreciate Guerlain's modern classics and those seeking a unisex leather that balances warmth and elegance. Ideal for cooler weather, evening wear, or when you want a comforting, sophisticated presence.
中文簡介
Cuir Beluga 係 Guerlain 2005 年推出嘅中性皮革香水。前調係明亮嘅醛香橘子,跟住係蠟菊同廣藿香嘅中調,蠟菊帶嚟乾草般嘅微甜,廣藿香增添泥土感。基調係柔軟嘅麂皮,混合雲呢拿、天芥菜同琥珀,雲呢拿佔主導但唔甜膩,反而乾爽包裹,帶少少麝香。皮革偏向麂皮,唔係動物感強烈嘅類型,易穿。粉感同甜感平衡,仲有蠟菊嘅草本氣息。呢支係親密嘅皮膚香水,唔會太張揚。適合鍾意 Guerlain 現代經典嘅收藏家,或者想搵中性皮革香水嘅人。秋冬夜晚用最啱,畀人一種舒適又優雅嘅感覺。
