That's what leather smells like to me.

Rania J. currently has 8 perfumes in her portfolio. Her style is inspiring, because it reminds me of some indie houses. All the fragrances in the collection have a theme and are mostly oriental, even 'Lavande 44' has an oud note, which is rather rare.

With Rania's leather scent it is a little different. I find it less oriental, and whether it now smells typically Andalusian, I can't say. The first time I sniffed it I immediately thought of a very expensive leather jacket, one made of soft nappa. Better still, the jacket is inside a brand new luxury car.

On my skin, the fragrance starts directly with a leather accord of violet, saffron and this light rubbery note. Don't worry, it's exactly this note that makes the beginning so luxurious. After a few minutes the fragrance takes on a wonderful buttery, powdery note. The iris butter is there and is kept in perfect harmony by the bending axe.

Very slowly, Cuir Andalou gets darker and smokier. The oud, which is never too animalistic, gives the fragrance a great spicy aura.

With a shelf life of more than 12 hours, it doesn't run out of puff so quickly, and the Sillage is also impressive.

Of the 8 fragrances in my collection that have the word 'Cuir' or 'Leather' in their name, Rania's perfume is my favorite because it really smells like leather to me
