Douce amère
A new take on the demonic green fairy, "Douce-amère" is a delightful reminder of the elaborate ceremony of the absinthe drinker. Through a perforated spoon balanced on the glass, the drinker will let the water from his carafe drip onto a cube of white sugar which will slowly dissolve and mix with the emerald blood of the absinthe. For unmitigated bitterness!
"First bitter, then sweet, it’s absinthe of course. As green as wormwood is grey, these two ideas tussle [...] ... only to kiss and make up on the skin." Serge Lutens
Rounded shoulders with an apothecary stopper, this iconic Palais Royal bottle contains the perfumes of a collection sold only in our most prestigious shops.
In his now iconic olfactory creations, Serge Lutens has for over 20 years been producing strong alcohols with Proustian accents. From “Féminité du bois”, to “Ambre sultan” and “La fille de Berlin”, each perfume tells their own exceptional story and has their own unique signature.
