Ateliers Des Ors - Black Collection - Cuir Sacré
Cuir Sacré, the sacred leather of Atelier Des Ors, shows us a summer's day in the old town of Córdoba, the Andalusian city filled with warmth and bustle. The sun shines down on the traditional, noble Cordovan leather, refined to a suede-like softness by way of a powerful vetiver and fascinating saffron. An exciting scent - like the crackle of electricity and longing in the air before a big party - Cuir Sacre is a life-enhancing statement, a strong intertwining of sensual leather and aromatic cypress wood. A vein of lightly spicy, green cardamom and smoky frankincense add a peppery lightness in the base that serves to counter the heavy richness of the burnished leather. Both sensual and fresh, Cuir Sacré is a marvel for those who thought the leather genre had nothing left to show.
