Les Liquides Imaginaires Lunatique is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2024, created by Vincent Ricord. Lunatique opens with Marigold, Pink Pepper, Sichuan Pepper, and Juniper, settles into a heart of Cyclamen, Carrot Seeds, Neroli, and Iris, and dries down to a base of Musk, Leather, Sandalwood, and Vetiver. Les Liquides Imaginaires's Lunatique carries a Statement verdict, a green-led wear.

Lunatique is a truly divisive scent; a cold, metallic leather with an otherworldly vibe that you'll either adore for its uniqueness or absolutely despise for its harsh, industrial edge. Not for the faint-hearted.

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Fall Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its potent, unique profile and strong sillage mean Lunatique is too assertive for the office. It thrives in formal and date settings where its mysterious, bold character can make a lasting impression. Less suitable for casual wear due to its intensity and distinctiveness.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

In standard patch-test panels

Other declarable allergens

  • Bitter orange peel Citrus Aurantium Amara Peel Oil from Neroli
  • Neroli Citrus Aurantium Amara Flower Oil from Neroli
  • Sandalwood Santalol from Sandalwood
  • Synthetic musk Hexamethylindanopyran from Musk

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Lunatique opens with a sharp, almost metallic blast of juniper and pink pepper, underpinned by a subtle, unexpected sweetness from pear. This quickly gives way to a cool, earthy heart of iris and carrot, deepened by mystical frankincense and a hint of fruity blackcurrant. The dry down is a powerful, long-lasting blend of cold leather, dark oud, and earthy vetiver, softened by creamy sandalwood and a touch of musky ambergris, leaving an intriguing, alien trail.
