Carner Barcelona Cuirs is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2011, created by Sonia Constant. Cuirs opens with Saffron, and settles into a heart of Caraway, Cedar, Sandalwood, and Patchouli. Carner Barcelona's Cuirs carries an Acquired verdict, a woody-led wear.

This one's a divisive affair. If you're a Black Afgano fan looking for a softer, more refined sibling, or just after a sophisticated leathery oud, 'Cuirs' might hit the spot. But be warned, some find it a bit ‘meh’ or even unpleasant, so definitely try before you buy.

Office Casual

Its moderate sillage and sophisticated woody-leather profile make it suitable for office wear, though perhaps a bit bold for some workplaces. The sensual leather and oud notes, coupled with decent longevity, make it ideal for dates and formal events. It's a bit too heavy and refined for casual daytime wear or sport.

About

Cuirs opens with a warm, spicy kick of saffron and caraway, quickly transitioning into a rich, woody heart. Sandalwood, guaiac wood, and cedar create a creamy, luxurious backdrop, while a subtle violet note adds a touch of powdery elegance. The base settles into a smooth, dark leather intertwined with a clean, well-blended oud, softened by amber, for a sophisticated and seductive finish.
