Which Should You Buy?
L'Eau Serge Lutens is a divisive 'anti-perfume' that aims for pure, minimalist freshness. While some find it an addictive, zen-inducing clean scent, others are put off by its perceived synthetic nature and lack of originality, likening it to damp laundry or worse. Love it or hate it, it certainly sparks conversation.
This mint-forward fragrance is a divisive beast, heralded by some as a photo-realistic, refreshing triumph, and dismissed by others as reminiscent of cleaning products or even cat pee. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, but for mint lovers, it's a must-try.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.
Occasions
Its subtle projection and clean, fresh profile make it ideal for office wear and casual settings, as it won't offend those in close quarters. While some find it elegant enough for understated formal events, its 'laundry' vibe makes it less suitable for romantic dates or high-impact occasions.

Occasions
Its fresh, clean, and green profile makes it ideal for casual wear and invigorating sport. While some find it light enough for the office, its distinct, sometimes polarising, character and moderate projection might be too much for formal settings.
