Cuir Vegetal is a unisex fragrance by 100BON, released in 2023.
This eau de parfum is part of the L'Atelier 100BON collection and offers a contemporary interpretation of a leather composition, combining density, warmth and natural depth with a distinctive woody facet.
The fragrance belongs to the leather and woody families, so it comes across as composed, rich and noticeable.
Its character is built on contrast: the bitterness of coffee is softened by the aromatic nuances of rosemary, then cedar makes the composition drier and more austere, while moss, vetiver and a leather accord emerge in the final stage.
Cuir Vegetal opens with an expressive combination of coffee and rosemary.
Coffee adds a deep gourmand nuance without excessive sweetness, while rosemary brings a cool herbal freshness and makes the opening more energetic.
As the fragrance develops, cedar comes forward at the heart.
Its dry, clean and slightly resinous facet gives the fragrance a sense of verticality, reinforces an impression of confidence and connects the aromatic top with the rich base.
The leather accord is especially noticeable in the trail, surrounded by earthy, mossy and woody nuances.
Cuir Vegetal finishes dense, dry and textured.
Moss adds a natural coolness, vetiver contributes its characteristic bitter-woody line, and leather makes the scent warmer and more enveloping.
As a result, the fragrance leaves a very powerful trail and will appeal to those who enjoy noticeable compositions with an expressive lingering impression.
This is a unisex fragrance with no strict association with either a women's or men's wardrobe. On one person's skin, it may smell more coffee-like and soft; on another, it may emphasize dry woods, moss and vetiver.
Thanks to the rich concentration of eau de parfum, Cuir Vegetal is particularly suited to cool weather, evenings, meetings or any occasion when you want to leave behind a memorable aromatic trail.
The recommended amount to apply to skin and clothing for this release is not specified in the available data.
Given its very powerful trail, it is sensible to start with a small number of sprays when trying it for the first time and assess its development after a few minutes: compositions with leather, mossy and vetiver nuances can smell especially intense.
100BON is a French brand founded in 2017 by Nicolas and Raphaël Hervé.
The brand is known for its desire to reinterpret niche perfumery through the idea of purity and a more mindful approach to fragrances.
Cuir Vegetal reflects this aesthetic, but expresses it not through an airy floral scent, but through the rich themes of leather, wood and earth.
That is precisely why the fragrance may interest fans of expressive compositions who are looking not for universal freshness, but for character and dimension. For further exploration, you might consider Lacoste Eau de Lacoste L.12.12 Blanc Limited Edition, The Spirit of Dubai Turath and Vince Camuto Virtu, comparing their mood, density and the impression left by their trail.
The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
A rich and elegant fragrance that gently unfolds on the skin and lasts most of the day, leaving a delicate trail
Perfumes for the fall and winter seasons often contain notes of vanilla, spices, ambergris, wood, and other warm accords, creating a feeling of comfort and warmth during the cold months
The composition opens with coffee and rosemary. Coffee creates a deep gourmand facet with a refined bitterness, while rosemary adds herbal freshness and aromatic clarity.
Cedar emerges at the heart, forming a dry, woody and well-structured accord that provides the fragrance with its framework. It lends the development a more austere character and gradually leads into the rich base.
The base notes combine a leather accord, moss and vetiver.
Leather lends warmth and texture to the composition, moss adds earthy depth, and vetiver rounds it off with a dry, slightly bitter woody nuance.
The complete Cuir Vegetal pyramid is built around the contrast between a coffee-and-aromatic opening, a cedar heart and a dense leathery-mossy trail.
The overall impression is rich, woody and expressive.
