L'innommable

Serge Lutens L'innommable is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018. The fragrance opens with Davana and Dried Fruits, settles into a heart of Cumin, Immortelle, and Tuberose, and dries down to a base of Benzoin, Frankincense, Leather, and Vanilla.

Our verdict on L'innommable: Acquired

This one's a proper love-it-or-hate-it beast. Some find it a delicious, syrupy dream, others are repulsed by what they perceive as burnt sugar, BO, or just plain weirdness. Definitely not a blind buy, unless you're a true Serge Lutens aficionado.

Casual

Given its strong, distinctive character and long-lasting nature, L'innommable shines brightest on dates and formal events where its unique profile can be appreciated without being overwhelming. It's too potent for the office and entirely unsuitable for sport, while casual wear depends heavily on personal preference and the specific setting.

About

L'innommable is a rich, balsamic amber fragrance that weaves together sweet and spicy elements with an animalic depth. Imagine candied fruits - think figs and prunes - steeped in a warm, resinous benzoin, infused with fresh and pungent cumin. It's a sweet, sticky experience with an unexpected edge, hinting at maple syrup, spices, and a unique, almost leathery tang, settling into a deep, mysterious dry-down.
