Le Jardin Retrouve - Cuir de Russie

The opera hall is packed. Diaghilev is presenting his Ballets Russes. Flamboyant Parisians and you are seated in the front row. Wide-eyed, you watch Nijinsky and his soft leather boots. He leaps, he spins, he fills the stage with the bewitching scent of ylang-ylang, violet, and cinnamon enveloping a harmony of cade wood and styrax. You wish that this moment could last forever.

Inspiration: Ballets Russes, Paris, circa 1912
90% of natural origin, no coloring, stabilizers or UV filters

Our customers say
  • Unique and interesting blend of notes; ideal for those who enjoy a mix of floral, leather, and powdery tones. Some say it stands out and keeps you intrigued.
  • The scent has a nostalgic quality, often associated with 'grandma' fragrances or older, more traditional perfumes. Some find this charming, others less so.
  • The fragrance leans more towards a mature, clean, and powdery profile. Perfect for those who appreciate a vintage feel, although it may not be for everyone.
  • A versatile scent with layers that can suit both casual and formal occasions, but might be perceived as too strong for daily wear by some.
This fragrance is best suited for those who appreciate a complex, vintage-inspired scent with a mix of floral, leather, and clean powdery undertones. Ideal for those who enjoy a nostalgic touch in their perfumes.

    Way more on the perfume side
    Just wasn’t what I thought would be a manly scent. Way too potent and flowery. Almost overburdening.

    Very unique
    My personal experience wearing this made the leather and Yang lang notes extremely strong, which was very different than I had expected. Not something I would wear everyday, but unique and interesting. I find it leans more masculine, and is more suited to occasional evening wear!

    Really good!
    I'm giving it 4 stars cause I wouldn't buy the full bottle myself, but it is really an incredible smell, it's a bit more on the feminine side of gender neutral if that makes sense, which is likely why I wouldn't buy it... but yeah, great smell.
