The original brand , created by artist Serge Lutens, also known as "France's intellect and philosopher" for continuously producing unique beauty that seems to embody eternity, held its "ARTISTIC SALON" on Tuesday, March 24th, at the Shiseido Ginza Head Office Word Salon. At this event, guests with contemporary sensibility and refinement, who perceive fragrance as culture, were invited to delve into Serge Lutens' sources of inspiration and his dedication to beauty. At the venue, a quiet dialogue emerged through carefully selected fragrances from Serge Lutens' signature line, "Collection Noire." It became a time when individual aesthetics naturally intersected, accompanied by the stories and emotions evoked by the scents. On the day, individuals who pursue unique expressions in various fields, such as DJ and kimono stylist Mademoiselle Yulia, ballet dancer Nozomi Iijima, actress Satsuki Nakayama, and DJ and model UNA, attended. New values of beauty were quietly shared amidst the intermingling of sensibilities. Serge Lutens will continue to explore forms of luxury that resonate with sensibility, deepening its relationship with art and culture through expressions centered on fragrance. --- ## DISCOVERY SET From Serge Lutens' signature line, "Collection Noire," eight flacons reminiscent of sharp daggers, adorned with delicate colors. Eight mythical fragrance creations converge here. * ### * Serge Lutens' Irresistible Scented Temptation: Discovery Set Purchase Campaign Customers who purchase the Serge Lutens Discovery Set will receive one 1mL sample from the Collection Noire. *The type of scent cannot be chosen. *Available while supplies last. *Some stores may not participate. **Target Stores:** Serge Lutens Official Online Shop, Serge Lutens directly managed stores * SHISEIDO THE STORE * The Ginza Imperial Hotel Store, etc. https://www.sergelutens.jp/ja_JP/shop-list.html --- ## Featured Fragrances (Collection Noire): * **La Fille de Berlin / The Girl of Berlin** Ancient Berlin. A city of illusion. The figure of a girl standing in a dinner jacket. She is a thorny flower. Better not to interfere. The scent of solace and passion exuded by a silver rose on snow. * **Ambre Sultan / Amber Sultan** It began with scented wax found in a souk. Stored deep in a wooden box, long forgotten, the material "amber" was rekindled by me and became "Sultan." This is not an oriental fragrance; it is the scent of Arab and Lutens. So, do not expect a conventional fragrance. Only when I used the sticky cistus leaf extract and added a touch of vanilla that no one had ever thought of, did amber transform into the scent of a king. * **Santal Majuscule / Sandalwood of a Grand Story** In uppercase, life-size. "OBOEDI SILENTIIS MEIS NON IMPERII" — "Do not obey my commands. Obey my silence." Sandalwood, cloaked in bitter cacao, sinks deep into a velvet trap. * **Fleurs d'Oranger / Orange Blossom** What lies within us. Bigarade (bitter orange), a richly fragrant flower. A drop of civet added to it emits an enchanting shimmer. * **Nuit de Cellophane / Cellophane Night** Back when couture wrapped in cellophane still made me shiver. Have you ever smelled osmanthus? A white, or perhaps orange, flower. Tiny flower crowns cluster together, each bursting with the scent of jasmine accompanied by mandarin. A tribute to the secrets of nocturnal life, adorned with mystery and delicacy. * **L'orpheline / The Orphan** Fragile, yet complete. Its name cracks the moment it is almost spoken. Before it shatters, its first two syllables conceal the name of a poet who captivated even stone. * **Féminité du Bois / Femininity of Wood** A revolutionary fragrance. For what seemed like an eternity, "femininity" was described by roundness, languor, and sometimes an ambiguous softness. By discovering the feminine aspect within the scent of wood, this fragrance sparked a revolution and became a legend. A unique individuality, irreplaceable by anything else. A fragrant myth discovered and woven by Serge Lutens. * **La Religieuse / The Nun** A heart that reveres innocent souls and desires to protect them is torn by an unbearable craving for profanation. The pure white of jasmine like snow, and the strict black of faith. Release us from the bonds of good. --- ## Palais Royal-Serge Lutens In Paris, near the Louvre Museum on the right bank of the Seine, lies the beautiful arcaded gallery known as Palais Royal. It is a special place imbued with a unique presence and atmosphere, steeped in long history. Built as the residence of the Duke of Orléans of the Bourbon dynasty, it was named "Royal Palace" after Louis XIV, then five years old, moved there from the Louvre Palace in 1643. The Serge Lutens flagship store opened in this history and culture-rich arcade in 1992. When creating a fragrance store, Serge Lutens chose a quiet and historical location, believing "a secret place where no one can come is good." He described it using Jean Cocteau's words: "Palais Royal, it is the heart of Paris protected by the Great Wall." His vision, of two abstract concepts—past and future—merging into an imaginable ideal present, remains unchanged. Through repeated renovations, the store continues to create new values.
