Serge Lutens 2016 EDP
L'Eau de Paille
Serge Lutens L'Eau de Paille is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2016, created by Christopher Sheldrake. L'Eau de Paille opens with Grass and Hay, settles into a heart of Vetiver, and dries down to a base of Incense. Serge Lutens's L'Eau de Paille carries a Favourite verdict, a green-led wear.
This one's a bit of a curveball from Serge Lutens. Some reckon it's a classy, unique take on fresh hay and vetiver, perfect for summer. Others are left scratching their heads, finding it too generic or just not what they expected from the house. Definitely a try-before-you-buy job.

When To Wear
Best Seasons
A warm-weather scent. The green hay and freshly cut grass opening over a bright, slightly smoky vetiver reads cooling and airy on the skin, which is why wearers lean it heavily towards spring and summer; the dry incense keeps it just substantial enough to carry into early autumn.
Best Occasions
Its fresh, green, and airy character makes it brilliant for casual wear and office-safe through the working day without overpowering a room. The understated hay-and-vetiver simplicity reads daytime and relaxed rather than formal-evening, and it is light enough for sport, but lacks the depth for black-tie occasions.
