What does Mon Numéro 4 smell like?
The scent reads as a single piece: fresh, clean lavender meets a spicy, powdery base. Vanilla adds sweetness without taking over, while leather sits behind as a smoky, leathery shadow. A floral touch softens the edges and keeps the classic fougère character intact. Created by Bertrand Duchaufour in 2009, it has a close profile to Serge Lutens Encens et lavande and Caron Les Plus Belles Lavandes.
