NIGHT TOMBAY – The olfaction of dusk according to Serge Lutens

The Night Tombee is part of the Black Collection and presents itself as a nightly, intimate and secret chypre. It evokes the moment when the light fades, the shadows lengthen and the memories become denser. The house itself describes this perfume as an agreement that "shows its tumults and silences", a fragrance that speaks only half-voice but prints memory as a confidence.

Here is the olfactory description of Serge Lutens' Falling Night

From the first seconds, incense dominates the scene: a smoked incense, almost medicinal, which imposes a sacred atmosphere, silent, almost ascetic. We are far from sweet and sweet incense: here it is mineral, dry, austere, like a breath from a temple immersed in the night. This opening creates a voluntary sensory shock, a frisson in the night, according to the creator's own terms.

Once the smoke is dissipated, the patchouli settles, dark and sensual. Nothing from the hippie patchouli: here it is made wet ground, damp wood, but also chocolate, almost greedy at times, a facet emphasized by several testers. This patchouli gives the perfume its night thickness, its organic character, warm, enveloping.

The cedar brings structure and verticality. It is a dry, woody, clean note that stabilizes the composition and avoids excessive heaviness. In this minimalist trilogy – incense, patchouli, cedar – each material plays an essential role, without complicated pyramid or superfluous decor: the composition is deliberately purified, leaving the materials to express in all their depth.

General feeling perfume on the skin

The overall sensation is dark, enveloping, smoky, almost meditative.

• Incense brings an olfactory shock to the start.
• The patchouli warms up, brings body and an almost greedy texture.
• The cedar rounded, structure and leaves a woody trail dry, calm, laid.

On skin, the fragrance is often described as not scalable, but tenacious, with a particularly strong hold (8-12 hours depending on user returns). It is perfectly suited to cool evenings, autumn and winter, where its deep character expresses itself fully.

The history of Serge Lutens House

The universe of perfume expresses itself with boldness and poetry through the Maison Serge Lutens, founded byone of the most visionary creators of modern perfume. Since 1992, Serge Lutens has redefined theperfumery codes by creating olfactory compositions that go beyond simple perfume,transforming each creation into a sensory art work. His radical and artistic approachmakes the Lutens House a must-have of the high perfumery.

A Sensory and Artistic Journey

Serge Lutens is distinguished by creations where each fragrance is an exploration, a territory ofFull part. Bold, sometimes controversial notes, mixed with delicate agreements, formolfactory universes of unsuspecting wealth. Iconic fragrances like "The Girl of Berlin",

"Ambre Sultan" or "Chergui" become sensory narratives, fascinating olfactory portraits thatcaptivate and hypnotize.

Art of Subversive and Refined Perfumery

At Serge Lutens, perfume is not just a fragrance: it is an artistic expression withoutcompromise. Each vial, each composition, each detail of presentation bears witness to asingular vision, where beauty mixes with darkness, light, sensuality. Creations areoften a mixture of paradoxes, intensity and poetry, a bit like the artist himself, to theMystical and modern.
