    A chypre leather is exactly the description that springs to mind here . It is very well blended and very classy indeed. Have a bottle of the EDP. A very successful blind buy from ebay 🙂

    Cavale is a luxury Faberge from the 1970’s, when Faberge was seeking to get its perfumes back onto department store perfume counters, after decades of intentional popularization and mass marketing. (The other exclusive 1970’s Faberge was Partage.) Cavale is just right for me: a herbal, leathery chypre. I acquired a bottle a while ago and it reminds me of vintage Cabochard EDT (in the black and white twig patterned box). Cavale’s leather is softer, but it is still a leather of the tangy sharp isobutyl quinoline type, not the softer smoky vanilla-y kind. Cavale is very nice, but I prefer Cabochard, since it has much more depth. But the Cavale bottle is undeniably gorgeous.
    If you wear vintage Cabochard or Bandit or even modern Azuree, Cavale will not seem unusual, but it is surely unisex according to current tastes. A bemused Basenoter says he isn’t sure who was meant to wear Cavale, but he says it’s definitely masculine in his opinion so he will wear it himself, but Cavale was definitely marketed to women, as vintage ads prove.
    Given the obscurity into which both Cavale and Partage have fallen, I’d have to say that Faberge’s attempt to be both upscale and popular at the same time was not very successful. It’s a difficult game to play, as we can tell from the ceaseless efforts of contemporary luxury brands to keep us convinced us of their exclusivity. After Faberge became so well known as an accessible brand in the 60’s and 70’s, it may have been impossible for it to reclaim its status in the luxury perfume market.

    As with many other vintage Faberge releases, this fragrance utilizes high quality raw materials.
    I agree with the review from Dinkum, but I also get the citrus, bergamot and orange notes, (I have the eau de toilette).
    Worth having in your collection !

    I have this, in pure perfume, in a little rounded silver bottle. What stands our for me is the galbanum and leather (a prominent but soft leather note). Mint, just a hint of it too make it fresh. Also, I could swear that there is marigold there too?
    This is really a treasure! One of those perfumes that brings a broad grin to my face every time I put it on 🙂
