  Cuir Cannage is an incredible find. In 2014 no one thought it was possible to create an elegant classic that was also so original. It stays outside of trends and those commercial scents that smell just as cheap as they do expensive. It takes me to another era but feels very current. It combines the old with the new as if there were a door between both worlds. It reminds me of Chanel Cuir de Russie and Knize Ten. For me it’s leather with flowers using first-class raw materials. The orange blossom smells real and open not narrow. It has that roundness of classics without being sharp or watery. It’s neither brutal nor synthetic; it’s subtle refined and grand. It lasts a long time on skin and several days on sweaters. Far from being annoying that scent that emerges and hides is rewarding transmitting elegance. For me it has everything. Perhaps it’s the best leather alongside Guerlain Derby and Knize Ten.

  I’ve been hunting for this for ages until my sister brought it back for me on a trip to Paris. I’d never tested it properly, but she decided to gift it to me. The truth is, it’s an ultra-high-quality perfume with longevity reaching 12 hours without issues; on clothes, it lasts for days. Its biggest advantage is that it’s nothing typical, with leather notes and a hint of incense and florals at the start. I recommend it for demanding people seeking excellence, because it truly is outstanding.

  I’ve been chasing it for a long time until my sister brought it back to me on a trip to Paris. I’d never tested it or knew exactly what it smelled like but she decided to gift it to me. The truth is it’s an extremely high-quality perfume and its longevity reaches 12 hours without issues; on clothes it lasts for days. Its biggest advantage is that it’s nothing typical with leather touches and an opening slightly incense and floral. I recommend it for demanding people seeking excellence because it really is excellent.

  Brutal review of @Alex1984: nails it down to the letter on how it smells. It’s a Dior gem that seems to have gone unnoticed and vanished from shelves. The violet, indolic jasmine, and that soapy touch… Demanchy’s leather is different from Chanel’s: less airy, not a bouquet where flowers and leather dance equally; here it’s a compact, deep scent playing with violet, iris, and a potent, addictive jasmine. Though it has body and is intense, it doesn’t feel heavy, lasts forever, and never gets tiring. Its evolution is magnificent—it doesn’t dry out or fade; you’re left with a floral leather that never disappoints. Chanel is elegant and feminine leather, but Cannage is LEATHER in all caps: it’s intimidating at first, but gradually reveals all its richness. It’s a new concept mixing intense floral notes with clean, deep touches of tobacco and petroleum. No artifice, like an ancient potion with exact ingredients, quality, and originality. A unique gem from Demanchy.

  Brutal review by @Alex1984 describing the scent to a T. It’s a Dior jewel that seems to have gone unnoticed and been discontinued. The violet indolic jasmine and that soapy touch… Demachy’s leather is less airy than Chanel C de Russie. Here there isn’t a bouquet where flowers and leather dance equally; instead it’s a compact deep scent playing with violet iris and a potent additive jasmine. Although it’s intense and full-bodied it doesn’t weigh you down and lasts a long time without tiring. The evolution is magnificent: at the end you have nothing dry or faded but a floral leather that doesn’t disappoint. Chanel is elegant and timeless leather while Cannage is LEATHER in capital letters which scares you at first but slowly reveals all its richness; a new concept dancing between intense clean floral notes and the depth of tobacco and petrol. Without artifice it’s like an ancient potion with exact ingredients quality and originality. A unique jewel from Demachy.

  For lovers of fine leather: it’s an iris bomb sweet powdery with caramelized violet and herbal notes mixed with a less animalic leather more suede-like. It denotes an olfactory education I don’t have and I don’t feel comfortable with it. It’s super potent even more than Oud Ispahan filling the room and turning heads. Serious mysterious enveloping sober mature and sharp. Very beautiful for those who can handle it but for me it was a mistake and a blind gift. Cuir Cannage has overwhelmed me. Tick-tock.

  I absolutely loved this Cuir Cannage. For me who has difficulties with leather it won me over. It smells of leather iris and violet but without being sharp very balanced. It has a very slight soapy and powdery touch. As it dries it leaves a delicious leather with tobacco leaves. In some points you can notice that typical petrol touch of leather but it doesn’t disgust me. It’s not something to buy blindly due to the dominance of leather. It has good projection and lasts 9-10 hours on my skin. I could wear it it seems unisex but I think it’s more elegant and irresistible on a man. I would have gifted it to the man of my dreams. I wanted to save part of my decant to use it on him but… guilty pleasure I finished it myself. So yes Monsieur Demachy. Scent 8/10 Longevity 9.5/10 Sillage 7.5/10 Value for money 6.5/10 Versatility 6.5/10 Packaging 7/10. Would I buy it again? I didn’t buy it.

  I absolutely loved this Cuir Cannage! For me who has issues with leather it won me over. It smells of leather iris and violet nothing sharp very balanced. Slightly soapy and powdery; as it dries it leaves a delicious leather and tobacco trail. It has great projection and lasts 9-10 hours. I think it’s unisex but more elegant on a man; I would have gifted it to my partner but I ended up using it myself out of guilty pleasure. Scent 8/10 longevity 9.5/10. I didn’t buy it but it’s perfect for anyone who can handle its potency.

  Classic and refined it brings to mind the elegance of Lady Dior but it didn’t work as expected on my skin. It opens with an intense petrol-like leather that I loved but soon a sweet fleshy violet emerges giving it an unexpected fruity twist reminiscent of Elizabeth Taylor’s White Diamonds. It closes with sweet tobacco. If the leather lasted longer I’d buy it but the drydown didn’t convince me. I’ll give it another try cold. Moderate sillage lasting 6-8 hours.

  Leather white flowers and iris only for the brave! The leather note in this Dior composition makes me imagine the vegetable tanning process with natural tannins in barrels. I’m sure it smells like freshly tanned leather in its finest form. It’s a unique perfume with tremendous quality that I took a while to understand. Cuir Cannage smells like high-end leather radiant neither jacket nor shoe paste neither Tom Ford nor Aqua di Parma style. I imagine it’s like the skin of a luxurious wallet or handbag like the interiors of a Pagani Huayra by Hermès almost animalic accompanied by a bombshell of white flowers and iris. The first spray lasts a long time; the initial shock can be disconcerting a bright almost shrill leather hit with flowers turning everything upside down but there’s no other way to describe it. The drydown is practically eternal; on my skin it lasted 14 hours and even after showering the floral base was still there. My wife can’t stand it; it’s the only leather/iris/floral mix in my collection she couldn’t tolerate. They say animals have warning colors and with this perfume that’s captured by the color of the juice. In the end tobacco appears to temper that animal and euphoric display making it cozier and deeper. Cheers to everyone.

  It’s a classic and refined scent that reminds me of Lady Dior’s elegance, but on my skin it didn’t work as I hoped. It opens with an intense leather and petroleum note, which I loved, but soon a sweet, fleshy violet emerges, along with the florals, giving it an unexpected fruity structure. That fruity-powdery facet is what lasts the longest and reminds me a lot of Elizabeth Taylor’s White Diamonds (with better ingredients and a rounder profile). It closes with sweet tobacco. If the leather projection held up, even if linear, I’d buy it, but the dry-down didn’t convince me. I’ll try it again in colder weather. Moderate sillage, 6-8 hour longevity.

  Leather white flowers and iris only for the brave! I imagine a slow artisan process hides soaked in natural tannins. It smells like high-end freshly tanned leather like a luxury handbag not a jacket or shoe paste. It’s a floral bombshell that turns everything you know upside down with an eternal longevity (14 hours on my skin). My wife can’t stand it but the final tobacco note makes it cozy. An animalic yet radiant scent.

  Vegetable tanning isn’t done in barrels; that would make no sense at all.
