Centaures Cuir Ambre (1996)
by Pierre Cardin

Simple but fun fragrance... a lot more 'ambre' than 'cuir' unfortunately. Starts out with a distinct leathery note backed up with the sweetness of amber. Within about 30 minutes the leather note is gone and all that's left is a nice amber. Of course, there is no shortage of amber fragrances and there's nothing that makes this fragrance stands out besides its obscurity and neat stopper cap.

I found a bottle on eBay and both love leather fragrances and obscure items, so I bought one. I believe there are sites that sell samples of this.... I wouldn't spend much on seeking this out, but if you come across it, it's not terrible.
