A pun on Quir de Russie, a smoky leather dating back to the times of Chanel and her legendary affairs.
Queer de Russie is a smooth neon latex leather, cyberpunk and iridescent made with zesty ginger, modern molecules and naughty fruit.
‘Bright, exotic and full of life, the scent of ginger, scattering is green and gold sparks in the air, reminds me of festive fireworks. Ginger — a whole, amazing 10% of it in the formula — is the core of Queer de Russie, defining its luscious, radiant nature. Of course, we used the best raw material there is, the CO2-extract. Unlike the more commonly available steam distilled oil, it does smell just like the freshly harvested ginger root — in all its glorious complexity.
It is not possible to make a beautiful suede accord without using synthetics, but even those don’t guarantee you won’t end up with something way too powdery and old-fashioned. With Queer de Russie, we decided to challenge the “cuir” canon and created a suede note that smells very high-tech — like it’s been grown in a lab on the top floor of a skyscraper. It’s still a leather note, but a clean and futuristic one, with an exciting touch of latex that matches the idea of Queer de Russie so well.’
