the better blended Black Afgano...

Lovely Composition. I dont know if there is oud inside but I get bitter woods/sandalwood. A little balsamic labdanum...sweet Tonka bean and leather on the other side.
It is a lighter/more soft Version of Black Afgano from Nasomatto. Sillage and longevity are moderate. Nasomatto is stronger in both fields.
This is for men and woman, a classic one which everyone should fall in love with. A so called " SOFT OUD/BALSAMIC COLOGNE"

If you dont like woody scents you should avoid this one. For example Wonderwood by CtG or Tam Dao by Diptyque are same direction as CUIRS but more musty and darker.

The Great CUIRS!!

The better version of Black Afgano and Gucci Intense Oud, it's more wearable. the composition is well done, I loved it because it's not Oud in you face or rubbery leather that makes you sick.

The composition is great: Sandalwood, Leather, Oud, Saffron & Tonka Bean. A sweet woody, leathery, lightly spiced oud. It's a smooth, animalic, creamy. Absolutely beautiful. It makes you feel like a rich man, that's how I feel.

Performance is excellent, 14hr+ of longevity, with at least 5-6 hours of very solid projection. This works great for me on cold nights out and about.

Unisex Leather for Potheads

Cuirs lives up to its name. It's a leather fragrance that is a bit smoky, woody, spicy, & resinous. The spiciness on top mellows fairly quickly. The smokiness and resins combine to leave a dope-like quality that is easy to pick out. It's a beautiful fragrance, even if it smells like a hash pipe.

Cuirs is solidly unisex & high quality, although I don't think it's very unique. Although I like-like Cuirs, I don't yearn to smell like a pothead, whether at home or at work.

Not leather

For someone with a name that means Son of the Smith, I have a strange dislike of metallic things, especially odours.
And there's a metal odour to this; like 'metallic urinal cake' or ivory soap wrapped in medicated toilet tissue and soaking in a metal dish.
It's a woody amber - 'ood', a hint of clean urinal, a strong metallic note; no leather anywhere.

Another brick in the wall

Cuirs, like many other “inspired-by” fragrances of Black Afgano, falls short in that it does not mention its main inspiration. Instead, it only offers a lighter and more transparent take on the composition. While it is not a bad release, the question remains – do we need more inspired fragrances or do we want truly artistic creations in the niche realm? Personally, I opt for the latter. As mentioned in before, Nasomatto’s Black Afgano DNA is evident in this composition, almost like a new fresh version of the original, and there is no denying this fact.

TOP NOTES
The fragrance opens with a spicy and dry scent. Saffron and a hint of cumin introduce the user to the fragrance, with cumin providing a wearable aroma rather than a body odor scent. Those with a more experienced nose will detect the oud right away, which is a more western take on the note that is often divisive among fragrance lovers.

HEART NOTES
In the heart notes, the fragrance starts to calm down. By this time, cumin is no longer present and the fragrance prepares the user for its woody base, where sandalwood, cedarwood, and patchouli take center stage along with saffron and oud. As a fan of woody fragrances, I found it to be more wearable than expected.

BASE NOTES
It may not be the perfect scent for me, considering the high standards I have and the numerous perfumes I have tried over the years as a fragrance enthusiast. But that doesn’t mean it won’t be a great option for you. Keep your expectations moderate, disregarding the official note listing, and you might find that this smoky, woody, and musky base with dry amber is right up your alley. Note that lovers of deep and rich leather fragrances should look elsewhere, as Indian Nagarmotha in this composition is essentially a cypriol molecule that has a sweet, incense, and woody aroma.

OVERALL
You might have come across the term “unfulfilled promises” before, where a product, movie, or fragrance, for instance, is hyped up but fails to deliver on its promises. However, I am pleased to say that despite some issues I have mentioned earlier, Cuirs actually performs well in the dry down. While I strive to maintain an unbiased approach in all my reviews, I think most people will find this fragrance suitable for wear during the colder months.
