Guerlain 2019 EDP
Les Absolus d'Orient Cuir Intense
Guerlain Les Absolus d'Orient Cuir Intense is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2019, created by Thierry Wasser. Les Absolus d'Orient Cuir Intense opens with Ylang-Ylang and Osmanthus, settles into a heart of Musk and Leather, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Sandalwood, and Tobacco. Guerlain's Les Absolus d'Orient Cuir Intense carries an Acquired verdict, a musk-led wear.
This one's a proper wild beast, not for the faint of heart or an easy blind buy. It's a polarizing, opulent leather bomb with monstrous performance that inspires adoration in some and outright revulsion in others. Try before you commit.What our verdicts mean →

Profile
Composition
Timeline
Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear
Best Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Best Occasions
Its nuclear performance and intense, animalic leather accord make it utterly unsuitable for office or casual wear, as it will overpower any small space. This scent is best reserved for formal events or special occasions where its luxurious depth can shine without overwhelming others.

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this
