Reviews

I smell patchouli, vanilla-musk. Something foody, probably the nuts, and an edge of burnt. Not in a bad way but odd. Neither is it a pleasant smell on my skin. Again, not bad or foul, but too woody/burnt to be perfume. I like it anyway.

odeur de cèleri et de chou sur moi puis un peu aiguilles de pins mais je trouve très bof pour un LUTENS.

I am not sure why I like this - as someone else remarks, it is very much sweet cough syrup. It also smells herby like rosemary and thyme, but then the sweetness comes through again. I like it (I don't love it), but I almost don't *want* to like it, because it makes me think it is actually quite "cheap" (and Serge Lutens isn't cheap in an economic sense). It's definitely not a chypre, it is definitely not green, but apart from the syrup, I don't know why it would be 'red' either. An odd one, wearable, but not very interesting. Actually, as I write this, I have come down the other way again and decided that I don't even like it. Probably why I have had the bottle for 3 years and tend to forget about it most times.

Spicy stewed fruit, drizzled with honey and served in a wooden bowl. It's warm, rich and very Autumnal, but admittedly not something I'd wear.

I don’t understand SL sale technique. I would love to buy Muscs Koublaï Khan, Iris silver mist, Rahät loukoum to name just a few. But I won’t. And it’s not because of the price. But because of the bottles. I don’t like splash bottles. I may be in the minority but when i buy a fragrance i prefer to spray the scent directly from the original bottle, not using some plastic/glass atomizers so that i can actually use the fragrance. I am saying this because i’ve just seen that SL has moved one more fragrance to his so-called “Exclusive (splash) Bottles” collection: So no more Chypre Rouge in the efficient, comfortable and much better looking spray bottle. I guess i’m fortunate to have it in this mode. It really pisses me off but i’m not going to pay almost 200 euros for a splash bottle, even if it’s in an exclusive jar. Now onto Chypre Rouge - a syrupy, spicy and piney scent that feels warm, cosy and reflective. An intimate fragrance for those who consider perfumes a personal matter and value them as such. And don’t care if others like it or not. It is me who feast on it, not you. *****
