Daim Blond

Serge Lutens Daim Blond is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2004, created by Christopher Sheldrake. Daim Blond opens with Hawthorn and Cardamom, settles into a heart of Suede, Iris, Heliotrope, and Apricot, and dries down to a base of Toffee and Musk. Serge Lutens's Daim Blond carries a Favourite verdict, a powdery-led wear.

This "blonde suede" is a modern masterpiece - a quiet luxury that's both unique and divisive. A stunning, sensual blend of apricot and powder, it challenges expectations while being loved by those who 'get' it. Just don't expect it to shout from the rooftops.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:

Fall

Also Works:

Spring Winter

The soft buttery suede, ripe apricot and powdery iris read warmest in autumn, the anchor season, easing into cooler spring and gentle winter days. The delicate, low-projection character keeps it off the high-summer shelf.

Best Occasions

Best For:

Office Date Casual

Also Works:

Formal

A quiet-luxury skin scent with reserved, intimate sillage that suits casual wear and the office especially well, with enough refinement for a date. The lack of projection makes it understated rather than a formal-statement choice.

About

Opening with a subtle spice of cardamom, Daim Blond swiftly unveils a heart of soft, buttery suede, kissed by the fruity sweetness of ripe apricots. Powdery iris and heliotrope weave through, lending a delicate, almost ethereal texture, while a whisper of musk adds depth and sensuality to this gentle, refined composition. The hawthorn adds a metallic clean hum, preventing the fruit from becoming cloying.
