MIEL DE BOIS by Serge Lutens

An uncommon fragrance, with a bold, rhythmic warmth.

Story

Serge Lutens has always used a fascinating honey note in his most stunning creations. In Miel de Bois, (Wood Honey), the essence is a veritable nectar, “rough, hard white honey, bursting with little seeds”. Its luminous warmth is bound to the strength of wood. But the designer didn’t want a soft or crystalline wood. So the honey has been wedded to a dry wood, with an almost abstract fragrance, and notes of ebony bark, oak and gaiac wood. A surprising combination for both men and women in search of new sensations.

Description

First a dry, brittle wood that breaks in your hands: ebony, underscored with gaiac and oak bark. Then comes the sap, the intoxicating honey ether that wafts in the air like an alchemy of woody notes. The base note is beeswax, sprinkled with iris and hawthorn.

Range

Eau de Parfum 1.7 fl. oz.

Bottle

The house’s signature bottle, with its luxuriously streamlined design, true to the world of Serge Lutens.

Of all the SL I tried, this has got to be my favorite. Honey is rather predominant, which is why I like it so much. However, contrary to what it may suggest, it's not overly sweet. It must be the woods and beeswax that prevent it from becoming that. And therein lies part of SL's genius: his scents are sweet and gourmandy, but in a grown-up way, not the candy-store, syrupy way m... More
