I didn’t even know that leather smells different in different countries! But have only been on the fragrance journey for 2-3 years.

Thanks for the kind words & for watching & commenting 😊
That’s why I love these classic perfumes like Cuir de Russie. They come with a history lesson and a story. This was very enjoyable!
Thanks for watching & commenting 😊
You should try the extrait of Cuir de Russie! It’s so good!!!
I would love to... haven't smelled many of the Chanel Extraits tbh
They are all on the never ending to sniff list 🐽
tar, leather, elegance. In that order. Definitely a must.
The edp is mostly powder and flowers, with maybe a hint of tar… not really my cup of tea.
The Parfum/extrait is where it’s at.
Great video! I had a hard time finding a reviewer of Great Britain that had actually bought the perfume themselves. Appreciate the in-depth description of how and why birch tar is used in leather perfumes. I am not that fond of leather, but I am slowly opening up to it. Trying more leather frags. Just reviewed ten leather fragrances. Someone challenged me. Lent me some bottles.
I love your name... the HONEST perfume Reviewer.. those are hard to find now a days 😊
Cheers and welcome to the channel 🍻
@@RamseytheRam this is why i love you, honesty is foremost!
Never tried an older version of Cuir de Russie but I know a guy who has at least an edt version. Need to get my nose on that! Want to be transported back to the 1920:s☺️
Thank you for your thorough review! I wish I could try the older Chanel Cuir de Russie edt from the 80s. I have and love the current parfum. The current edp is too floral and synthetic.
I intentionally have not tried Roja Dove perfumes because I don't want to fall in love with a $1k perfume 😅
I know what you mean lol
Thanks for watching & commenting 🍻
Here again to get a proper leather lecture.
Welcome to class Seun...hope you sat in the front row 👨🏫
@@RamseytheRam hell yea. Cuir d Ange is my favorite leather of all time followed closely by Chanel’s Cuir de russie.
Special channel.
Thanks for watching & commenting
the stories that come with every video are just superb.your collection is so impressive! I really like cuir de russie the pure parfum version,to my nose the pp is the closest to Great Britain and per ml they’re almost the same price ,yet they’re different I love Great Britain I think it’s a true masterpiece on its own,just like cuir d r is a masterpiece too.very enjoyable video and comparison
Love them both.. wish i had 2 grand burning a hole in pocket i would love a full bottle of great britain 😅
Great video explaining the classical leather style. I might visit the Chanel boutique to sniff the parfum version of Cuir de Russie.
Ohhhhhh do let me know what you think... i have never smelled the pure parfum 👀
Whenever I get a new fragrance I always cherish that first time wearing it. So much so that I plan my day around being able to sit down and watch videos for that particular fragrance to prepare me for what I've heard about forever and am about to experience for the very first time. I get a nice cup of coffee and I prefer to watch your videos due to the elaborate history and other interesting tidbits you add that I find truly fascinating and makes the experience so much better. Thank you for taking the time to make these videos and spreading your knowledge behind the fragrance!
What a beautiful comment to read! Honestly I am honored! Thanks so much for watching & commenting mate 🍻
I'm so jealous of that Cuir de Russie, my favorite fragrance. I don't see this bottle anywhere.
Great video
Its a true hidden Gem...1983 i believe it was re issued by Jacques Polge 😊 if you see it grab it
YOUR PASSION KAN B FELT MY G
Thanks for watching & commenting mate 👍😊
Isn't it Mona Di Orio Cuir a Russian leather?
Thanks for the video great comparisons
I havent given it enough wearings to know for sure .. but if I figure it out I will let you know👍
What Roja Dove fragrances are truly original and not just higher quality copies/inspirations? Asking for a friend. He has stated on many occasions that he wants to be remembered for Diaghilev, but that scent seems to be greatly inspired by another fragrance from his former house.
Couldnt agree more... creation e or enigma pour homme is the first "original" composition that came to mind... other than that there arent to many 1🤷♂️
Ive always compared cuir cannage and Great Britain. But I can see why cannage and Great Britain are compared to cuir de russie.
I think of the bunch cuir cannage is the most commercially wearable... although I enjoy CDR & GB more TBH 😊
@@RamseytheRam me too. I love the amped up animalics in Great Britain.
Ya this is really good stuff.. sucks its 2 Gs a bottle 😒
Great Idea and of course enjoyable. I often compare similar smelling samples in the evening. It's a good way of paring down the rotation to a 'Do I really need this if I already have that one?' So far it's not proving that successful. 🙄
Haha no not successfull at all? My collection continuously grows and never shrinks... just got a 100ml of cuir D'Ange at a good price just now.. will do a first impressions of that in the next month or so 😃
@@RamseytheRam Excellent, will look forward to it. That 'honeyed' hawthorn note is uplifting. Being Hermes the leather is second to none.
Cant wait ... i keep hearing good things about it from people I trust 👍
I’ve been on this journey for like 8 years now and I buy and sell and trade u know how this hobby goes but one thing I will never sell is my cuir de russie edt after finding ur channel I need to try bel ami Great Britain is amazing and if u can’t find and Chanel edt it’s ur best bet at the closest thing Chanel edp is just garbage compared to the edt just wanna take time to say thanks for making this authentic content only reviewer I turned the bell on for keep um coming 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thanks for the kind words and watching and subscribing... i still dont see myself as a youtuber ... but there you have it.. the black sheep of the youtube fragcomm community maybe 😄
This video actually makes me craving for leather note, which is not my cup of tea most of the time. Good job on explaining Russian leather!
Thanks for watching & commenting brother 👍
I think meleg birch tar is v good, if u like cuir de Russie you’ll like that, it’s less floral and more smoky birch. . It’s not ifra compliant though and rich Mitch thinks u shouldn’t spray it on skin.
Thanks for the rec.. meleg perfumes are on my Radar but I never pulled the trigger... he has another one that is a big baroque chypre like Diaghilev i want as well so many i will do a haul from him one day 👍
Thanks for watching and commenting Mr Pleasent 😊🍻
@@RamseytheRam that’s civet cat chypre I have that as well and it’s really good. Proper old skool perfume for people like us. He does 2ml sample packs containing everything on Etsy which are quite cheap - love it when companies do that, always fun to have an entire perfume line to sample and spend time quality with. I think when houses are difficult to sample they are hiding something and relying on u tube hype blind buying.
YES! Thats a great point ... thanks for sharing ..I have heard enough good things from people i trust i would probably just blind buy civet cat chypre & Birch Tar 👍
Hi Ramsey, thank you for your nice explanation! Have you ever smelled Cuir de Russie by Areej Le Doré? And if so, what are your findings with regard to Great Britain?
Never smelled cuir de russie by AlD but I know its a "fabric perfume" because of the fact that it has real birch tar in it
@@RamseytheRam okay, I saw the Wafts video but didn't think it was serious…thanks!
Bravo.... I love both of these..... I'd be hard pressed to pick..... I need to look into that Farina you spoke of. .... For your consideration there's a Russian Leather from Pryn that's excellent imho. Keep up the good work sir ✌️
Thanks Jonathan... i will put it on the to sniff list 👍😊
Correction it's called Turkish Leather. Forgive me. Still an excellent leather.
I only have one prin fragrance and its called Cigar Rum... but i will try to find a sample of this turkish leather and I will let u know if I can find it ... thanks for the rec 👍
Yea Pryn Lomros has a ton of great releases from Strangers... Parfum Prissana.... And Pryn Parfum which you'll find Turkish Leather and the one I have Taiga which is also really good ✌️
Was that 1786 shipwreck carrying the holly grail Creed batches heading for royalty?
It was creeds original cuir de russie 100s of years b4 guerlain and chanel.. unfortunately the ocean had other ideas 🤣🌊

Mother Russia here! Lol

Zdravstvuj Rudispućine.
Šta ima ?
I've never smelled any of the Chanel Exclusifs in the EDT. I'm happy to stay in a state of ignorance for the sake of my wallet. Have you smelled the Cuir de Russie extrait? I'm interested in trying that 🦎
No never but if you do please let me know 😇
EDT are phenomenal. Nothing like current crap they sell .
Please tell me that cuir de russie has a close or similar accord that can be smelled in chanel no 22 or 5 ....i am asking because i got one which doesn't smell like (les exclusive cuir which i also have).....the one i got is similar in tall shape of yours but the one with builtin sprayer on the top....(same like chanel no 5 EDT )....I am afraid i got scammed and the liquide is the same but with cuir de russie written....
I mean just in the way some chanels have some similarities but I wouldnt compare it to no. 22
To me number 22 is closer to a chanel no 5
Amazing video. Great details. 👍
Thank you Sanjay... appreciate you watching & commenting 😊
My thoughts on Great Britain are complicated… When I first spray it I love it.. but there’s this metallic chemical note that gets more pronounced the longer I wear it… and strangely an aroma like burnt popcorn and martini olives shows up… plus the ambergris in it smells quite fishy… and the juice % just feels really thin compared to say Diaghilev.
I think Diaghilev is still my favorite from the house of Roja Parfums but to be quite honest yesterday was my first experience with Great Britian and I loved it ... it instanly skyrocketed to 2nd place... wish I had 2 grand burning a hole in my pocket for a full 100ml bottle... but alas I will enjoy my 7.5 ml discovery atomizer in the meantime 😊
Thanks for watching & commenting ... cheers 🍻
@@RamseytheRam hopefully your love for it doesn’t wane like mine (or maybe hopefully it does… for the sake of your wallet 😂), still a rich opulent leather with Roja’s favorite (violets) if I can ignore a few things in it..
I dont get the metallic chemical note or burnt popcorn luckily 😅
I do get a big dose of modern castoreum in the late dry down ... probably whatever synthetic they are using in place of castoreum now a days... i love that note & mixing with the birch & leather & rojas patented florals just does it for me... roja is a hit or miss house but after a full wear yesterday & comparing it to CDR (which I think I love just as much if not more than GB) great britain is a home run for me. But unless all of a sudden Roja likes me and sends me a free bottle (I argued with him on youtube a few months back about him not being a perfumer 😅) i will never give him that kind of $ no matter how good the perfume is 🤠 cheers mate thanks for sharing
First comment! 😇
🤌🏼
@@jura_rose I needed to get that in there before you or duck. Now I’m enjoying my informative history lesson from the 🐏 . 👀
I wish I could get my hands on an EDT version of CdR
If you ever see this bottle buy it 😊
Thats Professor 🐑 to you little lady 🤣
Thanks for watching & commenting
so I already have 20ML of Diaghilev...which other Roja would you recommend my man?
Check out my Ranked Roja Family Portrait! 🙂
@@RamseytheRam will look for it! 🫡
@@cayetano6547 i have a playlist called RANKED Family Portraits
@RamseytheRam yeah i found it..going through it. I wonder why Oligarch is out of top 10...I had a decant of Creation E and sold it years ago...was too naive to appreciate many perfumes..I may rebuy it with Danger and Great Britan. Thankful for these series as usual!! 🙏🏾👍🏽👌🏽
Cuir Cannage and Great Britain couldnt be absolutepy further apart imo.
Cuir Cannage is very very close to Creeds Royal English Leather, if anything.
And that is not a Russian Leather, ( its a Spanish Leather )
I would have to say Great Britain (on Smell and Longevity alone ) is one of the greatest fragrances period.
I disagree.. but I respect your opinion
Thanks for watching
Tried Russi today, fantastic scent and I will buy when I have a spare £300 😂
Yes CDR is fantastic... one of the greatest leathers of all time 🤌🤌🤌
Hope you didn't try the current version of it. It is crap compared to vintage
@@SD._ was new one, i never tried the vintage one
@@RamseytheRamsince this post the price went up £50, however it getting delivered today haha i went for the 200ml bottle. I now have Le Lion and 1957 both in 200ml. Thinking of getting Boy in a couple month
Memo's Russian Leather is a joke in comparison.
Memos Russian Leather is a joke!
