Leather and violets

Animalic, unwearable. You can't even mention Cuoium without hearing these adjectives. Admittedly, this isn't an entry-level leather perfume, and I can't deny its pungency either. However, it's complex and well-blended, with multiple facets complementing each other. And - believe it or not - there's some sweetness to it.

It opens with an oily, gasoline-like leather, softened by a gorgeous violet accord. It's a bit powdery and smells like a crossover between lychee, raspberry and rose. While it isn't as sweet as Ombré Leather or as fruity as London, Gualtieri surely acknowledged the giants. Tuscan Leather's ashy undertone can be detected too.

Let's focus on the main star: leather. The leathery feeling is created by combining cade oil and labdanum, which can be off-putting to some. It's earthy and smoky, but also resinous, medicinal and musky. There's a dry woodiness to it, creating a charming contrast between smouldering woods and balsamic amber in the drydown.

Performance is remarkable - it's Orto Parisi after all. It lasts throughout the day, with loud projection for several hours. Having experience in the animalic and leathery departments certainly helps. It might strike you as chemical warfare initially, but give it time. The subtle nuances will show after more wears - especially the violet.

Great smoky leather fragrance

Review based on a sample. Opening is sorta like a punch in the nose- quite brutal, leather, smoke, spicy and animalic. As it dried down, picked up a slight sour/urine scent, but that didn't last long. After about 15 minutes, it stabilized into an awesome leather scent backed up by a smoky note and subtle spiciness. The leather scent is what dominates and it's totally dry without even a hint of sweetness making it hyper masculine. If you are looking for a sweet leathery scent, you won't find it here.

This fragrance is easily wearable assuming you're good with leathery smoky scents. Being cautious, I first sprayed it on a test card and was impressed but not daunted. Gave myself 2 sprays on the chest and 2 on the neck (granted, with a sample vial spritzer). The leather scent was strong but certainly not overwhelming. Didn't have any issue with wearing it around people.

Performance is really great. After 10 hours, there was only slight projection remaining but the scent was still there and I could easily detect it without having to stick my nose under my t-shirt. I didn't spray my clothes; that would certainly have bumped it up a notch. The juice is brown, so it would probably stain clothing.

To sum up - a very masculine and awesome smoky leather fragrance. Congrats to Mr. Gualtieri - he's created a true masterpiece. Have since added a full bottle to my collection

Medieval Peasant Nostalgia

I wore this one today for the second time because I needed another go to really get a feel for what this scent is giving off. From the first whiff you can tell this one is going to be a strong one, and it's lasted close to 10 hours at a strength where I am still getting whiffs as I walked around. And if you like this fragrance that's probably going to be a bonus. For me, it's not my jam, I picture this smelling like what a medieval peasant would dream of smelling like. Sour funky barnyard, wood, ashes, and incense, all on top of leather. At the start the sour animalistic barnyard obnoxiously overpowers the rest, with everything else being discernable, but not really coming together into a cohesive fragrance. As it dries down it the hay smell dissipates a bit allowing the other notes stand out a bit more to me, although it keeps those sour funky notes the whole way through.

Leather Warrior

Orto Parisi’s Cuoium is a leather fragrance like no other. It doesn’t merely sit on the skin; it seeps into your soul, wrapping you in a story that is both personal and universal. It speaks of the past, yet it feels alive and present. If leather could dream, this is the scent it would wear—a rich, smoky, sensual dream, full of depth and beauty in every crack and crease.

It’s a fragrance for those who love the unknown, who find magic in the forgotten, and who seek not perfection, but authenticity.

Domesticated black afghan

Although leather is the flag in this perfume, it is not what I would highlight in its smell.
For me it is a Terroni with more weight of Black Afgano than normal always present in the Orto Parisi range (except Bergamask, Viride and Megamare) as a characteristic "base".
In this case, the "dry" point that Terroni's volcanic "earth" gives it may come out of the leather, although for me it is not a typical leather fragrance, but in smell it reminds me more of Bocanera or Black Afgano than of Terroni .
I find in this perfume one more nuance of the characteristic Orto Parisi range, which if it is given by leather, well ... it will be. Then some smoke added and this is it.
But whoever expects type M leathers from Puredistance, Dior or Chanel leathers or something like Tom Ford, I think that is not the case, here you will find other kind of smell.
The performance seems to me lower than that of Terroni, and even lower than that of Megamare. It is not a beastly bomb filling rooms or things like that, nor would the lasting stand out so much. Something standard in niche qualities.
