Cuir Mauresque
On leaving Andalucia, the Moors claimed they were leaving paradise behind. What they left behind was in fact an iconic fragrance, an elegant, sophisticated leather tanned on acacia bark, which takes us back to a past rich in conquests, culture and refinement.
"Back when the Moors occupied Cordoba, leather acquired a particular odor: animal hides were tanned using acacia bark." Serge Lutens
The design of this collection of signature perfumes by Serge Lutens is inspired by skyscrapers, taking us back to the New York skyline aesthetic of the 1920s and 30s. In a deep black colour lacquered to perfection and with edges as sharp as the tip of the Chrysler Building, this iconic bottle with influences of Art Deco ushers in a radical new modernity and a vertiginous style that towers over the rest.
In his now iconic olfactory creations, the perfumer Serge Lutens has for over 20 years been producing strong alcohols with Proustian accents. From “Féminité du bois”, to “Ambre sultan” and “La fille de Berlin”, each perfume tells their own exceptional story and has their own unique signature.
Perhaps even yours?
NOTES: Leather, Myrhh, Clove, Amber, Civetta, Cinnamon, Caraway, Incense, African Orange, Flower, Nutmeg, Styrax, Agarwood (Oud), Musk, Mandarin Orange, Virginia Cedar
