SLM Cuir d'Orient is a spicy fragrance whose name means "oriental leather". Based on the original recipe of a love potion from the 19th century in France, perfumer Nathalie Feisthauer has refined it with bergamot oil, iris, heliotrope, suede, patchouli, ambrette, vanilla, benzoin resin, opoponax resin and musk. SLM's Love Potions is a series of five fine perfumes, including Cuir d'Orient, based on aphrodisiac recipes.

What is behind Cuir d'Orient?

"I hardly know her. The whole world is here tonight. She gives me a smile: "Let me introduce my husband. Honey!..." He turns around, surprised. Not as surprised as I am. I smile. So does he. A couple walks by. "I didn't know. I'm sorry." The smiles fade. I ditch them and go blend myself into the scents of the party."
