Indult Reve En Cuir is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2008, created by Francis Kurkdjian. Indult's Reve En Cuir carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

This is a polarising scent - some find it a masterful, unique take on leather with incredible depth, others a meek, overpriced disappointment that vanishes too quickly. Expect a sophisticated, spicy-woody character with noticeable clove.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

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

Best For:
Fall
Also Works:
Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal
Also Works:
Office Casual

Its intimate sillage and moderate longevity make it suitable for close encounters like dates, but its complex, refined character also fits well in formal settings. While not overpowering for the office, it's a bit too luxurious for everyday casual wear or active sports.

About

Reve En Cuir opens with a vibrant, candied citrus zest of bergamot and lemon, quickly joined by an aromatic kick of oregano and a significant dose of warm, piquant clove and cardamom. As it settles, a sophisticated cedarwood and earthy vetiver emerge, softened by a subtle vanilla. The promised leather note is abstract, weaving through the composition rather than dominating, leaving a refined, spicy-woody trail that sits intimately on the skin.
