Guerlain Cuir Beluga

A Velvet Interpretation of Leather

Guerlain Cuir Béluga Eau de Parfum is part of the prestigious L’Art & La Matière collection, where exceptional raw materials are transformed into timeless works of olfactory art. Created by Olivier Polge, Cuir Béluga reimagines leather in an unexpectedly soft and comforting way, replacing rugged intensity with creamy vanilla, delicate powdery notes and velvety white suede.

Instead of a dark, smoky leather fragrance, Cuir Béluga wraps the skin in a luxurious cocoon of warmth and elegance. The result is an intimate, sophisticated composition that feels refined, comforting and unmistakably Guerlain.

Fragrance Experience

The fragrance opens with sparkling mandarin and luminous aldehydes, creating a clean, elegant freshness. As it evolves, earthy patchouli intertwines with everlasting flower (immortelle), adding subtle warmth and aromatic richness. The dry-down reveals the true beauty of the fragrance, where creamy vanilla, smooth white suede, warm amber and powdery heliotrope melt together into a silky, luxurious trail that lingers beautifully on the skin.
