Balmain Beauty Cuir Elysees is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2025. Cuir Elysees opens with Pink Pepper and Raspberry, settles into a heart of Petalia and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Leather and Sandalwood. Balmain Beauty's Cuir Elysees carries a Statement verdict, a fruity-led wear.

This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it affair. For some, it's a 'confident bad bitch edge' of rich raspberry and smooth leather. For others, it's a headache-inducing synthetic mess or even a 'dusty musty damp basement'. You'll definitely want to try before you buy.

About

Cuir Elysees opens with a bold, dark raspberry that's more velvety than sugary, quickly joined by a prominent, smooth leather accord that avoids being rugged or smoky. Delicate hints of pink pepper add a touch of spice, while jasmine and a touch of rose-like petalia weave through the heart. The dry-down settles into a soft, rounded warmth of creamy sandalwood, grounding the vibrant top notes and adding an elegant depth.
