Cuoio Antico
A pale, slightly retro floral that opens on violet leaf and iris — the leaf cool and watery-green, the iris cooler still, lending the first minutes a powdered, almost carrot-cool air.

By the editors · 2 min readA pale, slightly retro floral that opens on violet leaf and iris — the leaf cool and watery-green, the iris cooler still, lending the first minutes a powdered, almost carrot-cool air.
The heart adds a wet pear and mimosa, the pear keeping the iris bright and slightly fruity while mimosa lays down a soft yellow-floral fluff. There is a quiet, slightly aldehydic shimmer through the centre that pulls the composition toward something a touch vintage.
The base of ambrox, ylang-ylang and heliotrope smooths the floral into an almond-tinged warmth, ylang adding a creamy banana lift. Overall the impression is a soft, mimosa-yellow floral with iris bones — gentle, faintly powdered, more atmospheric daydream than statement.
