La Proie Pour L'Ombre

Serge Lutens La Proie Pour L'Ombre is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2021. The fragrance settles into a heart of Vanilla, Licorice, and Leather.

Our verdict on La Proie Pour L'Ombre: Acquired

A divisive yet distinctive beast from Lutens. This licorice-leather-vanilla syrup is either a masterpiece of dark luxury or a cloying, uninspired rehash. One thing's for sure: it's not for the faint-hearted.

About

La Proie Pour L'Ombre plunges you into a shadowy embrace of liquorice and robust leather, softened by a pervasive, syrupy vanilla. Hints of coffee and a subtle, almost gourmand sweetness weave through, creating a complex, balsamic depth. It's a dark, evolving scent, moving from initial intensity to a lingering, warm trail.
