Van Cleef & Arpels Orchid Leather is the dark velvet of the night, inspired by deep oriental motifs. It combines wildness and elegance, temptation and contemplation, and the composition itself appears as an exquisite perfume dress - thick, layered, sophisticated.

The fragrance begins with cardamom - spicy, intriguing, like the first touch of someone else's skin. It is accentuated by plum, ripe and dark, which adds fruity depth to the composition with a slight tartness, like a night flower in spice petals.

At the heart are incense and leather. They intertwine like the smoke from a candle and the breath of a velvet coat. The balsamic darkness of frankincense envelops the skin with tenderness, making the fragrance warm, languid and mysterious.

The finale sounds like frankincense and vanilla pods, which create a sweet resinous sillage - persistent, sensual and deep, like the memory of a forbidden desire.

Orchid Leather is a story of sensual tension and temptation, embodied in a fragrance for those who choose the magnetic rather than the obvious.
