In a nutshell
Description & review snapshotFeminite du Bois by Serge Lutens offers a striking departure from traditional sugary feminine scents. Christopher Sheldrake anchors this blend with an intense, bone-dry Virginia cedar that rubs against a jammy purple plum. It wears like a quiet, intellectual wool sweater during chilly autumn evenings.
