Serge Lutens

If your search for the ultimate primer has led you to this page, your search is over. This is it. This is the one. This will ruin you in terms of how you judge any other primers you own. For...

Fille en Aiguilles smells so unexpected. Based on the millions (I have been researching this for months!) of reviews I have read, I was expecting a dry, far more masculine scent. When I received my...

I have the travel flask of this from Serge Lutens, a format I really do not like. Since I also have Fourreau Noire (I regret my FN purchase altogether as it is throat choking,y powdery) in this...
