About This Perfume
Cuir de Cerise by Bortnikoff is a Oriental Woody fragrance for women and men. This is a new fragrance. Cuir de Cerise was launched in 2026. The nose behind this fragrance is Dmitry Bortnikoff. Top notes are Sour Cherry and Saffron; middle notes are Leather, Osmanthus, Apricot and Olive; base notes are Nagarmotha and Agarwood. The fragrance opens with the vibrant contrast of tart sour cherry wrapped in the warm glow of precious saffron, creating an opening that is both luminous and seductive. At its heart, supple leather intertwines with the fruity nuances of osmanthus and ripe apricot, while a subtle olive accord adds an unexpected green, savory elegance. Together they create the impression of finely crafted leather infused with sun-ripened fruit. The composition settles into a deep, textured base where rich agarwood meets smoky nagarmotha, leaving a refined woody trail with a mysterious, slightly earthy character. Cuir de Cerise is a sophisticated interpretation of cherry and leather – where vibrant fruit, luxurious leather, and precious woods merge into an elegant and unforgettable fragrance.
