Serge Lutens Nuit de Cellophane is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2009, created by Christopher Sheldrake. Nuit de Cellophane opens with Green, Fruity, and Mandarin, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Osmanthus, Lily, and Carnation, and dries down to a base of Woody, Musk, Honey, and Almond. Serge Lutens's Nuit de Cellophane carries a Statement verdict, a white floral-led wear.

This one's a bit of a curveball from Serge Lutens. While some find it a delightful, clean fruity-floral akin to luxury shampoo, others are underwhelmed by its lack of Lutens' signature complexity. It's a crowd-pleaser for some, forgettable for others.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick. The bright mandarin-and-osmanthus opening, juicy fruity-floral heart, and airy musk drydown read best in spring and summer, while the soft, transparent body has too little warmth to carry the cold months.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date

Its clean, transparent fruity-floral profile and soft projection make it an easy office and casual daytime wear, unlikely to offend in close quarters. The luxury-shampoo quality is pretty but lightweight for formal evenings, and the soft sillage lacks the freshness a sport scent wants.

About

Imagine a bouquet of white flowers, dominated by crisp jasmine and lily, given a juicy, almost nectar-like treatment. Sweet osmanthus brings peachy-apricot nuances, while a hint of mandarin adds brightness. A subtle touch of honey and soft woods anchors the clean, green floral heart, eventually drying down to a delicate musky embrace. It's an airy, transparent experience, like flowers viewed through a fine, clear veil.
