Byredo Cuir Sellier Sample
Cuir Sellier, tried on skin before you decide
Byredo makes Cuir Sellier, a perfume you can get to know here in a small vial. There is no recorded pyramid on this page, because we only print notes we can trace. A sample is the sensible first step: a perfume on paper and a perfume on skin are rarely the same thing. Write down what you notice after a few minutes and again after lunch, and you will see how it moves.

On the skin
How it unfolds
-
What is not on this page
We have the name and the house of Cuir Sellier, not its notes. Instead of copying a list from somewhere, we leave that part empty. A paper strip shows the outline, skin shows the detail. Your own nose gets used to a scent quickly, so ask someone near you what they notice.
-
On request
The status of Cuir Sellier is on request. That is an honest way of saying it is on our list but not yet in a vial. The form on this page is where you raise your hand. What reads as sweet on one person can read as dry on another. Notes on a list are a map, and what you notice on your own skin is the territory.
-
Small size, same perfume
The decant holds the same liquid as the full bottle of Byredo Cuir Sellier, moved into a small glass spray vial by FragranceGems and labelled by us. A spray vial lets you apply it the way you would from the bottle, which a dab-on tube does not.
Testing it
How to test it, for whom and why
How to test it
No season or occasion is on record for Cuir Sellier, so let your own days decide. Ask someone you trust what they notice, because your own nose adapts quickly. Leave other perfumes off that day, so nothing interferes.
Who it is for
Whether Byredo Cuir Sellier is marketed to men, women or everyone is not in our record; wear it if you enjoy it. It suits people who like to put a few scents side by side over a week. If you are choosing a gift, testing it yourself first tells you what you are giving.
Why try Byredo Cuir Sellier as a sample first
You learn more from three wearings of Byredo Cuir Sellier than from thirty opinions about it. It is our own decant from the original bottle, labelled by us. This is not an official brand sample and the house is not involved.

Frequently asked
Is this a sample made by Byredo?
No. It is not an official brand sample. FragranceGems decants Cuir Sellier from the original bottle into a glass spray vial and labels it; the house is not involved.
Why does this page list no notes?
No note list is on record with us for Byredo Cuir Sellier, and we only print notes we can trace to a source. The sample lets you judge the perfume without a list.
How should I keep the vial?
Closed, upright if possible, and away from heat and direct sunlight, the same way you would keep a full bottle. That keeps Cuir Sellier as it was when we filled it.
The brand
About Byredo
Byredo was founded in Stockholm in 2006 by Ben Gorham and turns memories and emotions into scent: a dance in Africa, a desert flower, a library, a nomadic life. The Eau de Parfums are built on a small library of raw materials, ambrette, sandalwood, violet, vetiver, and most of them stay transparent and close to the skin. That restraint is exactly why a sample helps: on paper they can seem simple, on skin they settle into something personal.
- Founded in Stockholm in 2006 by Ben Gorham
- The Eau de Parfum collection is presented as a library built on ambrette, sandalwood, violet and vetiver
- Minimalist bottles with a magnetic cap; core sizes 50 and 100 ml

I really appreciate that I found a shop that has a wide range of authentic perfumes,fast delivery,great communication and very good prices. Thanks for everything!
Timely info when item was back in stock. Some confusion with info about shipment updates on gls app but what is important: perfume came in perfect condition!
incredible fast delivery l. the fragrance itself its magnificent, the dry down woody base, is intoxicating. it last on me 10 hours plus. great service great fragrance
Good experience overall. Fast shipping without any incidents. Prices are good as well.
Really happy of my purchase. Serious seller, quality products, fast shipping, large catalog. I will order a lot of more !
Shipping was 5 days to Finland. Customer service was very good. Happy with the product also. Will shop again. Only thing I hope is that you guys would negotiate better price for GLS shipping to Finland. But I know that is not always possible. And I noticed the prices were lower than the competitors so the steep shipping price was not that big of a deal. Good job all in all.
Great shop with a fantastic selection and fast shipping. I was very happy with my order. It would have been a nice touch to receive a little sample, especially as I ordered two full-size products. ;)
Placing the order was very easy. Shipping was very fast. I am completely satisfied.
Plenty of perfumes and very good perfumes. Fast shipping. One negative. Expensive shipping from Netherlands to Greece
A selection of recent reviews in proportion to their star ratings.
