Serge Lutens 2008 EDP
Serge Noire
by Christopher Sheldrake , Serge Lutens
Serge Lutens Serge Noire is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2008, created by Christopher Sheldrake and Serge Lutens. Serge Noire opens with Spicy, Cinnamon, and Clove, settles into a heart of Ebony and Incense, and dries down to a base of Woody, Amber, and Patchouli. Serge Lutens's Serge Noire carries an Acquired verdict, a warm spicy-led wear.
Serge Noire is a love-it-or-hate-it scent. Expect a challenging opening that veers into body odour territory for some, but if you can push through, it transforms into an incredibly deep, sexy, and artistic blend of dark spices and woods. Definitely not a blind buy.

When To Wear
Best Seasons
The explosive clove-cinnamon spice over a smoky incense and resinous woody drydown reads heaviest in winter, the anchor season, with autumn a close extension. The heat and density keep it well off the spring and summer shelves.
Best Occasions
A pushy, artistic statement scent with strong projection suits date nights and formal cool-weather evenings where presence is welcome. The challenging, near-savoury opening makes it a poor office or sport choice.
