BORNEO 1834 eau de parfum spray 100 ml

BORNEO 1834 Eau de Parfum by Serge Lutens draws inspiration from the grandeur of French royalty and its tumultuous history, famously marred by the guillotines of the Revolution. This fragrance pays homage to rum absolute, weaving a narrative steeped in the rich, woody legacy and embodying a notably refined conclusion. “The Revolution not only claimed the life of the King of France but also took the oak with it. Thus, it marked a new beginning for them. Everything connected to this story: aged barrels brimming with rum, the aged floorboards that have borne witness to dignified strides—they all reflect its essence, born from tannin. It is the lifeblood that runs through it.” Serge Lutens. This vision of Serge Lutens culminates in an exquisite array of signature scents, with Gratte-ciel's bottle design echoing the skyline of New York from the 1920s and 30s. Its glossy black finish and precisely contoured edges resemble the striking arrow-like silhouette of the Chrysler Building, representing a nod to Art Deco artistry while embracing a fresh modernity. Bottled within are robust fragrances interlaced with echoes reminiscent of Proust's works. For over two decades, the realm of Serge Lutens perfumery has crafted scents that resonate as contemporary myths. Starting with "Féminité du bois" and journeying through "Ambre sultan" and "La fille de Berlin," each scent unfolds a remarkable narrative and a distinctive identity. Could one of them be your signature?
