Imbued with the sweet and sensual scent of tobacco, Écrin de fumée is a poetic ode to those who live life to the fullest. To those for whom excess is a way of life, who love to celebrate the pleasures of life in the utmost luxury. To those who know that time passes so quickly that you have to live life intensely and celebrate it to the fullest. Living dangerously has its limits, and disillusionment is inevitable. When the party is over and the curtain falls, illusions that were thought lost reappear. A tragic and fascinating reality check.
‘Quick, quick, the world is coming to an end! Our existence must be saved urgently. Champagne flows amid the roar of cannons. Corks fly through the air – could they be on fire? Behind the curtain, life is a decadent game.’ — Serge Lutens
A perfume line created by Serge Lutens in his own image. Minimalist, straightforward, angular and uncompromising, each of these bottles reflects the sophisticated style and demanding character of its creator. A sobriety that emphasises the splendour and richness of the perfumes, whose scents and colours are as diverse and nuanced as precious stones or our personalities.
Among his now iconic fragrance creations, perfumer Serge Lutens has been producing strong ‘alcohols’ with Proustian accents for over 20 years. From ‘Féminité du bois’ to ‘Ambre sultan’ to ‘La fille de Berlin’, each perfume tells its own story and bears its own signature. Perhaps it will become yours too?
