Serge Lutens Fragrances stories

No matter what the famous song says, with her, Paris will never just be Paris! In one fell swoop, she overturns the outdated image of the sweet, corseted Parisian belle, with her Eiffel Tower and other such clichés!

Deep within Aztec Mexico, Serge Lutens leads us in the footsteps of the conquistador Hernán Cortés and his discovery of the most heavenly nectar, vanilla. A delicious, wood-scented journey to the heart of a forgotten civilization.

The spirit of Parisian haute couture, its ethereal and dreamlike world, is incarnated in this glimpse through a translucent cellophane veil, in a night suffused with the cooling fragrance of mandarin and osmanthus.

The mystique of frankincense; in L’orpheline, the many shades of grey symbolise her break with the past and the stripping away of the layers of the fine dust which veil her memories.

Infused with the sweet and sensual scent of tobacco, this is a poetic ode to those who burn life at both ends.To those for whom excess is a way of life, who love celebrating the pleasures of living in the most opulent luxury. To those who know that time flies so fast that life must be lived intensely and celebrated to the hilt.Living dangerously has its limits, and disenchantment is inevitable. When the party ends and the smokescreen falls, lost illusions resurface. A tragic and fascinating reality check.

A manifesto in black and white, an uncompromising blueprint, Poivre noir makes concessions to no one. Dry, noble, and spicy, it is the embodiment of sheer elegance.
