Serge Lutens 1996 EDP
Cuir Mauresque
Serge Lutens Cuir Mauresque is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1996, created by Christopher Sheldrake. Cuir Mauresque opens with Caraway, Orange Blossom, Cinnamon, and Clove, settles into a heart of Leather, Amber, Myrrh, and Incense, and dries down to a base of Musk, Civet, and Styrax. Serge Lutens's Cuir Mauresque carries an Acquired verdict, an amber-led wear.
This is a bold, complex leather that you'll either adore or recoil from. It's an intoxicating classic that demands attention, but be warned: some find its vintage animalic edge too much to handle.

When To Wear
Best Seasons
A cold-weather scent. The syrupy amber and warm-spice opening and deep, animalic leather body suit autumn and winter best, with the myrrh-resin drydown reading thick and enveloping on warm skin.
Best Occasions
Its potent projection and intense, complex leather character make it a poor office or sport choice, but a strong pick for date nights and formal cool-weather evenings where the rich, animalic depth can shine. Casual daytime wear can read overwhelming.
