Cuir Musc
Leather dominates immediately, a dry birch-tar hide polished with tart raspberry rather than sweetened by it, so the berry reads as sour green facets against the tannic skin accord.
The scent fingerprint
Weighted by intensity across 12 accords.
Every perfume in Sillage is represented as a distribution across canonical accord slugs — a lingua franca for scent. Two fragrances with overlapping fingerprints are scent-twins, even if they share no literal note.

By the editors · 2 min readLeather dominates immediately, a dry birch-tar hide polished with tart raspberry rather than sweetened by it, so the berry reads as sour green facets against the tannic skin accord. Oakmoss creeps in within minutes, turning the leather matte, earthy and cool, while a clean white musk buoys the composition, lifting what could have been a heavy slab into something that hovers just off the skin. The fruit fades first, leaving a smoky, softly animalic leather that smells like a well-worn jacket stored in a damp cedar cupboard. Sillage stays moderate, projecting an arm’s-length radius for the first four hours before collapsing into a mossy musk skin-scent that persists through an office day. Cool fall evenings and early spring nights fit its temperate weight; wear it to casual dinners or weekend concerts where a quiet statement works better than loud compliments.
