What does L'Eau Serge Lutens smell like?
Most voters pick spring and summer for it, and it leans towards daily wear, leisure and the office, with evening and night out well behind. Longevity and sillage are moderate, so it stays close to the skin and leaves a quiet trail. Votes split almost evenly between feminine and masculine, which makes it a scent that sits in the middle rather than pulling either way.
Citrus fruits and peppermint bring the coolness, while clary sage pushes it towards a lightly spicy, green tone. Magnolia and musk add a soft, powdery floral side, and the aldehydes and ozone give it a clean, slightly synthetic brightness.
