Lovers of spice, particularly clove should probably put this on their list to sample. There is always something interesting to try from this house, and this one is no exception. Thank you for watching.

Incense + cloves = perfect
It is absolutely brilliant, master perfumer at work. Spicy smoke, very masculine. Cloves and incense are dominant. Not a huge fan of cloves but here it's perfectly blended in, not in a bothersome way. Give it a go to find out what's been missing in your life:))

Neuter Skin Scent
The listed notes for this fragrance are not in a traditional pyramidal structure. The listed notes are Patchouli, Cinnamon, Amber, Woodsy Notes, Incense, Clove, Spices, and Ebony Wood.

I was gifted a sample of Serge Noire, and I like it. I am surprised there are not more positive reviews of it. This is definitely a warm and spicy scent. I smell cumin, cloves, and incense mostly. There are other spices--I cannot delineate cinnamon from the lot-- but I do not have a highly tutored sense of smell, either. It is not sweet smelling to me. It has very little projection. It is a skin scent on me. Longevity is not very good. I expect it would wear longer on clothing than on skin. I find it enjoyable for myself to wear on the right day/night, but I do not imagine wearing it for others, and I would not say that it is sexy in any way. It is not especially feminine in the way some orientals such as Samsara are "feminine." It is definitely unisex, or more precisely non-sex. I would label it "neuter."

ABSOLUTE DISASTER. Opens woody-spicy, vintage feel. But up-close, it smells a bit like a sweaty shirt in a dusty attic (feel of cumin).

Peppery wood. Spicy. Smokey.
A nutmeg note reminds me of coca-cola.

One of a kind fragrance. Supposedly , this is Mr Lutens’s signature scent and we can see why. Incense with a touch of cinnamon and cloves.

Most challenging Serge fragrance. Dark, spicy, bitter and ashy. It can wear you if you are not ready for it. Original but odd.
