Mandarine-mandarin

6.6

Serge Lutens · 2006

Citrus · Floral · Fruity

Serge Lutens Mandarine-mandarin is a unisex scent in which orange and mandarin are softened by spice and amber, setting citrus on a sweet, smoky base; it has been discontinued. It opens with nutmeg and orange, and the heart keeps the citrus going with orange zest, tea and mandarin orange. The base of labdanum, dog rose, tonka bean and amber sweetens and warms it, while the accords add floral, spicy, woody and smoky shades beside the citrus. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and it leans towards evenings and leisure time. It doesn't settle clearly as masculine or feminine, with votes tilting slightly feminine.

El Attarine

7.5

Serge Lutens · 2008

Fruity · Sweet · Gourmand

Serge Lutens El Attarine is a unisex scent that pairs the spicy warmth of saffron and cumin with the sweetness of dried fruits; it has been discontinued. The notes read as a single whole rather than a top, heart and base: saffron, spices, dried fruits, cumin and everlasting flower. Fruity and sweet accords pull it toward gourmand, the spicy and woody side balances that, and resinous, smoky and faintly animal tones give it an oriental weight. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall and winter, and it leans toward evenings and nights out. Masculine and feminine votes are almost level, so it sits squarely in unisex territory.

Point du jour

7.3

Serge Lutens · 2024

Fresh · Green · Spicy

Serge Lutens Point du jour is a fresh, green unisex scent that leans towards leisure and daytime wear from spring through autumn. Built from thyme, clary sage absolute and eucalyptus absolute, it has no top-heart-base split and reads as a single piece. The fresh, green side leads, framed by a spicy edge and a woody, earthy, lightly smoky background. Longevity is good and sillage moderate, so it stays close rather than filling a room. Most voters pick spring, autumn and summer, with winter the least chosen. Leisure and daily wear come first, with office use close behind. Voters lean slightly masculine, though a sizeable share call it feminine.

Gris clair... (2019)

7.3

Serge Lutens · 2019

Fresh · Floral · Green

Serge Lutens Gris clair... (2019) is a unisex scent that sets a fresh, green side against a sweet, spicy and woody base. Lavender and iris lead, while amber and tonka bean soften and sweeten the blend; frankincense and dry woods add a spicy, woody dryness. The notes read as one whole, with the fresh, floral side kept in balance by the sweetness. Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters recommend spring, fall and summer, and it leans towards daily wear, leisure and the office. It reads somewhat more masculine to voters, though it is unisex. Its profile is close to Serge Lutens Gris clair... (2006) and Penhaligon's Lavandula.

Sidi Bel-Abbès

Woody, resinous and powdery accords round out the spicy picture. Serge Lutens Chergui (Eau de Parfum) and Serge Lutens Fumerie turque have a close profile.

6.7

Serge Lutens · 2008

Fresh · Aquatic · Green

Serge Lutens Un bois sépia is a unisex scent where opoponax, sandalwood and patchouli meet in a woody, resinous line. The scent runs as one piece from start to finish. Opoponax and sandalwood bring a sweetish, spicy warmth; patchouli and vetiver add an earthy, smoky depth, while cypress leaves a green, fresh touch. The woody and oriental side dominates, and the aquatic and fresh accords stay in the background. Longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Most voters pick fall, followed by spring, and it leans towards nights out and evenings. It reads somewhat masculine, though a fair share of voters call it feminine. Profumum Roma Patchouly and Profumum Roma Vet_G16 have a close profile.

Bourreau des Fleurs

8.3

Serge Lutens · 2017

Floral · Sweet · Spicy

Serge Lutens Bourreau des Fleurs is a sweet, spicy and smoky unisex scent that most voters pick for evenings and nights out; it has been discontinued. Voters also find it suitable for leisure time and night outings. Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Character votes split almost evenly between masculine and feminine, so it sits close to both. Liquorice, charred wood and immortelle build a sweet floral backbone. Spicy, resinous and earthy tones sit on top, with a smoky, woody warmth coming forward. The notes have no top, heart and base split; it reads as one whole.

Serge Lutens · 2025

Serge Lutens Zurafa is a powdery, leathery unisex scent that suits fall and winter evenings. Most voters wear it in fall and winter, with evening, night out and business the favoured occasions. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Masculine and feminine votes run close, so it doesn't lean firmly either way. Zurafa pairs iris, leathery notes and white musk. The floral, powdery side comes from the iris, while the leathery, earthy feel comes from the leather notes; a spicy accord adds a soft warmth. White musk gathers it all onto a clean base. Hermès Eau de Gentiane Blanche and Evody Cuir Blanc have a close profile.

Sweet · Gourmand · Spicy

Serge Lutens La proie pour l'ombre is a unisex fragrance that pairs a sweet, gourmand character with a smoky, leathery shadow. It is built entirely from leather, Glycyrrhiza glabra and vanilla. Vanilla carries the sweetness and the gourmand side, while leather adds a smoky, earthy weight. Spicy, woody and resinous accords keep the sweetness on an oriental line. Its longevity and sillage are both rated strong. With its dense, warm build it suits cooler weather better and will be noticed in a crowd. Pierre Guillaume Myrrhiad and Zara Bohemian Oud have a close profile.

Bois Roi d'Agalloche

7.6

Serge Lutens · 2025

Spicy · Woody · Oriental

Serge Lutens Bois Roi d'Agalloche is a woody, smoky unisex scent that suits autumn and winter evenings. Patchouli, oud and amber notes sit together as a single body rather than separate layers. A spicy, resinous warmth leads, an earthy and animal edge roughens it, and a touch of oriental sweetness stays in the background to soften the whole. Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and leisure and evening wear come first, with night out close behind. The masculine reading leads slightly, though the feminine vote is sizeable too. Gucci The Voice of the Snake and Rituals The Ritual of Oudh have a close profile.

Bois et musc

7.8

Serge Lutens · 2005

Sweet · Spicy · Woody

Serge Lutens Bois et musc is a unisex scent built on saffron, coconut and musk, with cedarwood and beeswax adding a warm, woody depth. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays close rather than filling a room. Most voters pick fall and winter, with spring not far behind. It leans towards night out and evening wear, though daily use suits it too. Feminine and masculine votes run close, so it sits somewhere between the two. Sweet, spicy and woody accords read together. Saffron brings spiced warmth and coconut a soft sweetness, while cedarwood lays a dry, woody base. Beeswax and musk carry it towards a powdery, animal and oriental tone. The notes come across as one blend rather than separate layers.

La nuit tombée

7.8

Serge Lutens · 2026

Green · Spicy · Woody

Serge Lutens La nuit tombée is a woody, resinous and smoky unisex scent built on cedar, patchouli and frankincense. Green and spicy accents lighten the woody core a little; the frankincense brings resin and smoke to the front, patchouli adds an earthy depth, and cedar draws a dry line through it. Chypre and fougère accords give the scent a firm, dry frame. Voters rate its longevity and sillage as good, though the vote count is small, so this is an early impression. It reads as unisex. Arquinesia Scent of History and Serena Galini Émirs des Montagnes have a close profile.

Tarab

7.6

Serge Lutens · 2020

Floral · Sweet · Spicy

Serge Lutens Tarab is a floral, spicy unisex scent that sets Turkish damask rose and oud against the sweetness of candied fruits. Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters pick winter and fall, and evening and night-out wear lead, while daily and office use sit well behind. Votes split between feminine and masculine, so it reads as leaning neither way. The notes read as one whole rather than in layers: rose and cedar are softened by candied fruits, while oud and the chypre accord add depth. Floral and sweet accords come first, with spicy, woody, powdery, resinous, smoky and leathery tones building an oriental base. The result is both sweet and dry, with a heavy side.
