The Perfume Atmosphere

La Dame de Heian is the epitome of Japanese finesse and tradition. This fragrance tells the story of a noble woman, a master of savoir-faire and elegance, who moves with innate grace through the refined rooms of a Japanese home. The atmosphere is that of a scene frozen in time, where every detail, from the scent of incense to the texture of the tatami mat, evokes the richness of Japanese culture.

La Dame de Heian by Serge Lutens is a poetic olfactory evocation of Japanese culture, embodied in the grace and subtlety of its heroine. Imagine yourself in a traditional Japanese house, where the air is imbued with an almost sacred serenity. Sliding wooden doors reveal rooms bathed in soft light, where the tatami floor welcomes the hushed footsteps of the Lady of Heian. The delicate scent of incense fills the space, accompanying every movement of the kimono as it rustles softly in the silence.

General Sensation 

La Dame de Heian is a fragrance that embodies the duality between airy lightness and earthy depth. It gives off an impression of tranquillity and inner strength, while revealing a discreet, refined sensuality. On the skin, the fragrance unfolds like a whisper, leaving behind a delicate but unforgettable trail. This olfactory creation is a tribute to the immutable beauty of Japanese culture, a fragrance that, as Serge Lutens so aptly put it, ‘from ash to dust, from air to light,’ celebrates the nobility and wisdom of the Lady of Heian.
