Natural perfumes in a 0,5 ml samples.
6 samples of LEATHER natural perfumes collection.
Perfume and curried leather are connected historically, and leather-themed fragrances have a long history. This collection of natural perfumes is all about the smell of leather without any actual leather as an ingredient. It is about suede and leather, gloves and saddles… all kinds of leather and leathergoods.

1) Cuir de Russie - “Russian Leather” is a very traditional for leather theme in perfumery. Real russian leather is distinguished from any other by strictly required usage of Birch Tar in the process of oiling. Here in Cuir de Russie you'll find this magnificent, powerful smoky tar. This is leather in the raw. Tarry, with tobacco, wormwood an castoreum. A universal leather.
It is a chypre with bright galbanum and bergamote start, a floral heart and a marvelous retailer base composed of oakmoss, sweet labdanum absolute, patchouli and castoreum. Surrounded by tarry smoke, the flowers bloom – jasmine and roses, ylang-ylang and orange flower. And smell of leather reminds of horses, harness and autumn hunting.
The perfume is really good in any weather, but the warmer it is, the more tarry it will be.
Galbanum, lemon, bergamot, yuzu, absinthe, tar, orange blossom, rose de may, jasmine, ylang ylang, carnation, tobacco, oakmoss, patchouli, labdanum, vetiver, Vanuatu sandalwood, ambrette, castoreum, ambergris

2) The Second skin - soft leather-gourmand chypre. Theme of leather here is played softly: no tar, no smoke, but the thick aromas of flowers, tobacco and dried fruits are waving dense ornament instead. Quiet power, confidence, sudden touches, whispers, velvet skin- the perfume is extremely kinesthetic. It forms a cozy protective cocoon around it's wearer in nasty weather, that let him forget about the winter at all.
If sprayed it shows more gourmand and flowery notes, and a greater sillage.
Bergamot, immortelle, carnation, tuberose, jasmine, ylang ylang, orange blossom, rose, cassia, black tea, cognac, tobacco, vanilla, castoreum, white cedar, sandalwood, labdanum, oakmoss, patchouli, ambrette

3) Revenge- a modern urban leather perfume. Leather, asphalt of city streets, and exotic lilies in hot summer air. Sharp like destroying jealousy and bitter like unanswered passion.
It shows, more or less obediently, leather; some wormwood with flowers; and gasoline exhaust of a landaulet in summer city… But unpredictable happens and it can draw you a sudden something, for example, a bouquet of lilies. Predatory tiger lilies wrapped in leather.
A perfume with many faces, it likes both heat and cold, seashore and desert sands, aire libre and scalding concrete jungle of a city.
Galbanum, wormwood, bergamot, estragon, neroli, jasmine, ylang ylang, roses, white cedar, choya loban, tobacco, vanilla, labdanum, orris, oakmoss, patchouli, vetiver.

4) Young Cossak - a leather aromatic chypre. Clopping of horse hooves, dust, smoke, steppe covered with thyme and absinthe. Heat haze, leather gloves, saddles and harness, tobacco and honey, flowering hawthorn hedge grow, - and the road again, with a reward - a long evening by the hearth - ahead.
A perfume-landscape, it has heroes – men and horses, as well as vastness of flatlands, and a day-long passing of the sun in the sky. Surprisingly, but whole the story started off with an image of sheaf of dry aromatic wormwood forgotten with a leather glove…
Wormwood, thyme, oregano, immortelle, vetiver, oakmoss - all the shades of brown and green.
Galbanum, absinthe, davana, tarragon, thyme, lavender, cumin, frankincense, immortelle, tobacco, vetiver, oakmoss, costus, agarwood.

5) Secret dreams - leather perfume that opens the door of you inner private chamber. What desires or fears are kept hidden in the depth of a heart? What dreams slips away faster then could be clothed in words? A key on a leather string can open the room, perfume can catch elusive dreams into it's nets. Leather, cognac, spices, dark woods.
Juniper, clove, black pepper, cumin, davana, cognac, tobacco, rose, osmanthus, cardamom, immortelle, castoreum, saffron, patchouli, oakmoss, myrrh, labdanum, cedarwood.

6) Tobacco Tuberose - a leather floral perfume. Green bitterness, milky-white flowers in a half-light of a library, soft clouds of tobacco smoke, cozy leather chairs, silence and comfort.
It is tobacco which surely leads in this duet. Warm and rich, the fragrance opens with bitter, slightly metallic green notes of violet leaves, they unfurl into dim old library cabinet. The cabinet is full of curling aromatic flows of pipe tobacco smoke. Then leather appears, warm and tactile, and then a sudden gust of wind brings heady, almost narcotic smell from a tall elegant bouquet of tuberoses. Try it on, find out who will lead for you – white flowers or tobacco-leather?
I advise to choose chilly dull weather to wear this perfume – it warms and comforts in a most subtle and pleasant way.
Top notes: wormwood, cistus, violet leaf, frankincense
Heart notes: tuberose, tobacco, rose de may,
Base notes: sandalwood, angelica root, orris, agarwood

REVIEWS FROM OUR CUSTOMERS AND PERFUME CRITICS:

Luca Turin is one of the most respected fragrance critics in the entire world: «I find Anna Zworykina‘ fragrances very impressive indeed, and largely immune from the mushiness of most natural perfumery. Wisely, she seems to stick to classical forms and puts her skill into making them work optimally. Verdigris, for example, is a resplendent, stonking chypre. You can clearly smell the superb bergamot, cistus and oakmoss singing in harmony. Young Cossack (in Russia Cossacks have a more positive reputation than abroad) is a lovely animalic hay-tonka accord that would make a wonderful masculine, with or without sabre and horse. Her Cuir de Russie is the most eccentric of that name I remember smelling, very floral and less smoky than the usual fare, with a strange and beautiful sweet-green drydown. In the end, empirical evidence prevails: these are perfumes that even a fan of synthetics like me would love to wear.»

Ayala Moriel, Perfumeur: "Anna Zworykina Perfumes' My Vanilla is a juicy bundle of cured vanilla beans whose sweetness is cut by green lentsicus leaves and smouldering incense. Through the thick smoke you can feel an exotic sweetness that is surprisingly floral - not at all gourmand as one would expect from anything containing "vanilla" in its title. It is spicy, exotic, narcotic. While I can see how vanilla migh`t have been a starting point for this fragrance - the result is not vanilla-dominated. Rather, it is a voluptuous oriental, influenced by the bombastic nature of Shalimar: burnt sugar and sweet spices are balanced with intensely smoky and slightly animalic choya nakh (destructive distillation of seashells) smoky-woody cedar to counterpoint the sweetness and pastry association, and perfumed with indolic jasmine and buttery orris and tonka beans. A very interesting addition to my gradually growing list of favourite all-natural perfumes. At first, My Vanilla has a strong, almost heavy presence - yet is utterly enjoyable to wear. The kind of scent that requires a special occasion. But of course like a good oriental, it fades into the softest, sweet whisper of vanilla. "

Erica Golding‎, «Australian Perfume Junkies» сontributor: "They're really fascinating and unusual and they get locked into your head. I need to try more!"

"All the perfumes of hers that I've smelled were of a similar style and character: sophisticated, intriguing, purely natural, with depth and complexity that is usually achieved by incorporating house-made botanical tinctures."

"These samples are truly excellent. They are complex, sophisticated, and evocative--fine achievements in perfumery! "

«Anna's perfume making skills are amazing. In my pack I chose Fallen Leaves, Wind from mount Kailash, My Vanilla, Second Skin and Green Madness. Every single one of them is a master piece, a journey, a story, a dream. I would like to write about all of them individually, but the review space doesn't allow me to. They are all very curious in their own way, like only handmade perfumes can, but also very strong, so spraying it in the air in front of you and then walking through it is a better choice than spraying them directly on you. Definitely worth the money, and I am yearning to order more. My favourite was Wind from mount Kailash, so herby and thyme-y, but still cold and deep. Like magic in a bottle.»

«Anna Zworykina is not only a perfumer, she is an artist. Her perfumes are liquid art. She is especially good when she works with themes such as sadness, sorrow, things lost, decay and melancholia in her perfumes. The scents are so evocative, unique, creative and beautiful, and of such good quality. Sillage is fabulous, and so is the longevity of her creations.»

«An absolutely precious little collection of stories in a bottle. I have only tried two out of 6 (thank you for the extra sample!), but I am already in love, and I want to make the introductions last a little longer. The fragrances are marvellosuly intricate, interesting, unexpected, made to fuel the imagination. I love the smokiness, the absence of sugar-sweetness. These perfumes are very grown-up, mature, perfectly sophisticated.»
