Serge Lutens 2000 EDP
Arabie
Serge Lutens Arabie is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2000, created by Christopher Sheldrake. Arabie opens with Date, Mandarin, Fig, and Dried Fruits, settles into a heart of Caraway, Resin, Clove, and Nutmeg, and dries down to a base of Cedar and Sandalwood. Serge Lutens's Arabie carries an Acquired verdict, a fresh spicy-led wear.
Arabie is a deeply polarising one, splitting the crowd cleanly down the middle. For some, it's an enchanting voyage to an exotic spice bazaar. For others? A culinary catastrophe, smelling more like a Christmas cake or curry paste than a wearable fragrance.

When To Wear
Best Seasons
A cold-weather scent. The dense candied-date opening and the clove-heavy spiced-resin body read thick and festive on warm skin, which is why wearers reach for it through autumn and the depths of winter rather than in heat.
Best Occasions
The potent, sweet-spicy spice-bazaar character makes it a poor office pick but a strong choice for date nights and cold-weather evenings. Many wearers find it too dense and foody for everyday formal wear, so it sits best in casual and intimate cold-season contexts.
