Serge Lutens Point Du Jour is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2024, created by Christopher Sheldrake. Point Du Jour opens with Thyme and Eucalyptus, settles into a heart of Clary Sage, and dries down to a base of Frankincense. Serge Lutens's Point Du Jour carries a Favourite verdict, a aromatic-led wear.

Point Du Jour is a divisive, meditative hit for lovers of incense and aromatic herbs. It's a bone-dry, almost austere take on a 'fresh' scent; skip it if you want something to please the masses, but if you're after quiet introspection and a unique herbal fix, this is it.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer Fall Winter

A cool-morning aromatic that wears across the year but leans to crisp seasons. The dry thyme and mentholated eucalyptus open fresh enough for spring, while the cold, churchy frankincense drydown reads beautifully on frosty autumn mornings. Summer is the weakest fit, as the herbal-incense body feels cool rather than breezy.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Casual Sport
Also Works:
Office

Its understated, therapeutic character makes it an easy everyday pick: casual wear, offices where subtlety is prized, and even invigorating morning runs all suit it. The abstract, meditative profile is too austere for formal events and too contemplative rather than romantic for dates.

About

Imagine inhaling concentrated dried thyme and clary sage, followed by a cool, almost mentholated eucalyptus. This isn't a freshie in the usual sense; it's abstract, green, and steeped in a 'churchy' incense, developing a meditative, therapeutic quality that hints at warm, tea-like nuances or even sweet spices in the deep dry-down.
