  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 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, nothing tight. 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 very long time on the skin and several days on jumpers. Far from being annoying, that scent that comes out 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 chasing it for a long time until my sister brought it 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 a perfume of extremely high quality and its longevity reaches 12 hours without any issues; on clothes it lasts for days. Its greatest 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.

  I’ve been hunting for this for a long time until my sister brought it back for me on a trip to Paris. I’d never tried it before, but she decided to gift it to me. The truth is, it’s a perfume of extremely high quality, lasting up to 12 hours without any issues; on clothes, it lasts for days. Its greatest advantage is that it’s nothing typical, with leather notes and an initial hint of incense and florals. I recommend it to demanding people seeking excellence, because it truly is outstanding.

  Brutal review by @Alex1984, he describes the scent spot on. 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 is no bouquet where flowers and leather dance equally, but rather a compact, deep scent playing with violet, iris, and a potent, additive jasmine. Although it’s intense and full-bodied, it doesn’t weigh down and lasts a very 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, Cannage is LEATHER in capital letters, which scares at first but gradually lets out all its richness; a new concept that dances between intense, clean floral notes with 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.

  Brutal review from @Alex1984: it hits the mark exactly 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 becomes tiring. Its evolution is magnificent; it doesn’t dry out or fade, leaving you with a floral leather that never disappoints. Chanel is elegant, feminine leather, but Cannage is LEATHER in capital letters: it’s daunting at first, but gradually reveals all its richness—a new concept mixing intense floral notes with clean, deep touches of tobacco and petrol. Without artifice, it’s like an ancient potion with exact ingredients, quality, and originality. A unique gem from Demanchy.

  For lovers of fine leather: it’s a bomb of sweet, powdery iris, caramelised 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, more so 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 has won me over. It smells of leather, iris, and violet, but without being piercing, very balanced. It has a very slight soapy and talc-like touch. When it dries, it leaves a delicious leather with tobacco leaves. In some points, that typical petrolic leather touch is noticeable, but it doesn’t disgust me. It’s not for blind buying due to the predominance 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 gift it to the man of my life. I wanted to save part of my decant to use it on him, but… guilty pleasure, I finished it. Yes indeed, Monsieur Demachy. Scent 8/10, Longevity 9.5/10, Trail 7.5/10, Value for money 6.5/10, Versatility 6.5/10, Packaging 7/10. Would I buy again? I didn’t buy it.

  I absolutely loved this Cuir Cannage! For me, who has issues with leather, it has won me over. It smells of leather, iris, and violet, nothing piercing, very balanced. Slightly soapy and talc-like, drying down to delicious leather and tobacco. 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 for guilty pleasure. Scent 8/10, longevity 9.5/10. I didn’t buy it, but it’s perfect for those who can handle its potency.

  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 of freshly tanned leather like that, the finest possible. It’s a unique perfume with tremendous quality that I took time to understand. Cuir Cannage smells of high-end leather, radiant, neither jacket nor shoe paste, nor Tom Ford nor Aqua di Parma style. I imagine it’s like the skin of a luxury wallet or handbag, like the interiors of a Pagani Huayra by Hermès, almost animalic, accompanied by a bomb of white flowers and iris. The first spray lasts a long time; the initial shock can be bewildering, a hit of bright, almost shrill leather with flowers turning everything upside down, but there’s no other way to describe it. The dry-down 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 colours, and with this perfume it’s captured by the colour of the juice. In the end, tobacco appears to attenuate that animal and euphoric display, making it cozier and deeper. Greetings to all.

  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 expected. It opens with an intense, petrol-like leather, which I adored, 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 hugely of Elizabeth Taylor’s White Diamonds (with better ingredients and a rounder profile). It closes with sweet tobacco. If the leather projection were better, even if linear, I’d buy it, but its dry-down didn’t convince me. I’ll try it again in colder weather. Moderate sillage, lasting 6-8 hours.

  Leather, white flowers, and iris only for the brave! I imagine a slow, artisanal process, hides submerged in natural tannins. It smells of 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 cosy. An animalic and radiant scent.

  Classic and refined, it brings to mind the elegance of Lady Dior, but on my skin it didn’t work as I expected. It opens with an intense, petrolic leather that I loved, but soon a sweet, fleshy violet emerges, giving it an unexpected fruity touch reminiscent of Elizabeth Taylor’s White Diamonds. It closes with sweet tobacco. If the leather lasted longer, I would buy it, but the dry-down didn’t convince me. I’ll try it blind. Moderate trail, lasts 6-8 hours.

  Vegetable tanning for leather doesn’t involve barrels; that would be completely nonsensical.
