Majestic combination of dried fruit, leather and incense

Fills the entire room with strong notes of dried fruit at the first spray. The way the leather accord and the incense develop bit by bit and the fruity note fades into the background is simply a poem.
Unique leather-incense fragrance. Absolute grenade!
I bought it at Harrods last year. Too bad it's only available there (if that's really true?).
For anyone on vacation in London, do yourself a favor and at least give the fragrance a sniff. It's not in the perfumery hall or upstairs on the 6th floor, but only at the Armani stand on the first floor.

When expectations are too high

Mystical, dark, mysterious came to mind when I first saw this bottle on Parfumo. With such a high rating, the fragrance could only be one of the best on the market.
Full of joy I rattled off every perfumery for this fragrance, in vain. In my city there were so some places where Armani Prive was to be found.
Where are you Cuir Majeste I asked myself. When I then noticed that Armani Prive now and then times limited fragrances rausbrachte and the Cuir Majeste was one of them.
1000 euros and upwards people put down for this kind of fragrances and they were usually sold out immediately. I didn't stand a chance.
After months of vain search I had then discovered the souk where people sold bottlings. Lightning came to me the Cuir Majeste in the sense and I had him finally found.

Thanks to @Kitho for the bottling who owns one of the most impressive collections I've ever seen.

The bottling arrived in the mail and I couldn't wait, the long search was finally over. I sprayed it on my arm, waited a few seconds and was ready for one of the top rated fragrances on Parfumo.
So nose to arm and? ................... hmm.
I detect a very oriental incense note .... but something is bothering me. Disillusionment is slowly spreading in my heart. All the anticipation and excitement were lost, the scent was just "good".
Did I have about too high expectations? Would I like the fragrance better if I had not gone on this long search?
The perfume is a decent oriental fragrance that many would like, but I find, for example, the Oud Royal by Armani prive much better. I think I set my expectations way too high when I saw this bottle, the reviews and the description.

In this case, the journey was the destination. It was fun to "hunt" the fragrance, but if the expectations are too high, one is then only disappointed in the end.

Addictive potential.......with hypnotic effect!

It is an honour for me to evaluate this wonderful fragrance from Armani
"Privé Cuir Majesté" - the name tells me that with this intense EdP I can expect an amazing experience with royal leather.

Sprayed intuitively, it has an intense berry-like appearance, almost like the smell of a skin filled with grapes. This dense fruitiness begins to shift a little, with the implicit sweetness fading and the fragrance then revealing other notes.

Osmanthus, sensual apricot-like feature is beautifully present and apparently reaches for the baton of the fading "dried fruit" note. Slowly an exotic, light incense penetrates, as does the luxuriously heavily hidden leather. Tobacco seems to have been defined by the previous notes already composed, but also appears in an almost liquid form. The scent of the dried fruits and osmanthus is still quite fruity even five minutes after the first spraying.

I begin to discover antiseptic traces of agarwood (oud), a little moss, and the cryptic "orcanox", better known as ambroxide ("ambroxane") - this is an essential ingredient of ambergris, tends to be sweet, earthy and waxy.

So many minutes after application I still get a very fruity, meticulous leather experience, warmed by Ambrox and lightly touched by Oud (which fades in and out depending on how things develop on my skin).

All in all, I would consider this a dark cherry-incense scent than a leather scent in itself. Perhaps I was not exposed enough to the abundance of different smells that make up the art and craft of leather processing. But with the little I know as a nominal fragrance lover, Privé Cuir Majesté feels more like a highly sparkling, fragrant, oil-conditioned suede than any "rougher" leather I could imagine.

Privé Cuir Majesté has a hypnotic, dark quality of its own and has a decent sillage and durability.

Rosenkavalier in noble leather jacket

This Armani Privé is one of several fragrances with leather-rose-ud combinations. But he immediately steps out of this row. It rightly bears the attribute Majesté. It is a majestic fragrance.
A gentleman, dressed in a noble soft leather jacket, stands with freshly blossomed roses in his arms, taking a few more touches of a noble cigarillo, before a romantic date.
Seldom are smoke, rose, leather and oud so finely tuned to each other. Nothing dominates, so that one is wrapped in this noble scent the whole evening, as if one had not taken off the leather jacket, as if the roses still exhaled their scent and as if a light smoky breath remains in the breath.
I see him more at romantics, more at men over 30, but he is also interesting for the ladies because of his soft harmonic style
