Serge Lutens 2001 EDP
Chergui
Serge Lutens Chergui is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2001, created by Christopher Sheldrake. Chergui opens with Rose, Iris, and Hay, settles into a heart of Amber, Honey, Tobacco, and Incense, and dries down to a base of Musk and Sandalwood. Serge Lutens's Chergui carries an Acquired verdict, a amber-led wear.
Chergui is divisive - a curious, compelling classic that evokes strong feelings, from adoration to polite dismissal. Some find it a masterpiece of honeyed tobacco, others a challenging, powdery affair, but it certainly isn't boring.

When To Wear
Best Seasons
A cold-weather scent. The honey-tobacco-amber heart and powdery sandalwood drydown read thick and warming on cool skin, with wearers consistently citing fall and winter as primary seasons. Spring evenings work; hot summer days do not.
Best Occasions
Its rich, contemplative character and arm's-length sillage make it a strong pick for date nights and formal cool-weather evenings, with comfortable casual winter wear. Too dense and divisive for the office and entirely unsuited to sport.
