or maybe it’s me? I’m drenched in Serge Lutens scents this summer. His various perfumes cover an array of fragrances. My favorites are the lighter, powdery ones I’ve listed here. When asked of Serge,”What is your current philosophy with regard to perfume?” his response is – “Perfume resides at the very heart of us. It is a means of self-expression. It is the dot on our “I”, a way of contemplating ourselves and sensing who we really are. It is also, in some ways, a weapon which seduces more by consequence than design. Perfume exists in the first person.

On hot summer days, it provides a breath of fresh air.
