L'incendiaire

Name: L'incendiaire Eau de Parfum
Brand: Serge Lutens

Serge Lutens L'incendiaire is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2014. L'incendiaire opens with Ginger, Plum, and Dried Fruits, settles into a heart of Clove, Cumin, Labdanum, and Incense, and dries down to a base of Amber, Cedar, Oud, and Patchouli. Serge Lutens's L'incendiaire carries an Acquired verdict.

This is a truly divisive one, not for its scent, which is largely adored, but for its utterly ludicrous price tag. A beautifully understated smoky oud-incense, but most agree it's just not worth the wallet-emptying cost.

Its intimate sillage and refined character make it suitable for close encounters like dates or formal events. While not overpowering, its luxurious incense and oud profile might feel a bit much for a casual daytime setting, and it’s definitely not for sport.

About

L'incendiaire opens with a gentle kiss of smoky frankincense and rich resins, subtly interwoven with a hint of warm oud. As it settles, a whisper of dark fruit and soft leathery nuances emerge, creating a sophisticated and smoothly blended amber glow. It's a scent that purrs rather than roars, evolving into a quiet warmth of refined woods, sweet sap, and a hint of a clean, abstract musk.
