Feminité du Bois by Serge Lutens
2009 • Unisex

SERGE LUTENS
FEMINITÉ DU BOIS

Feminité du Bois opens with a juicy blend of peach and plum, layered over the warmth of Virginia cedar and a hint of cinnamon. This fruity introduction quickly evolves into a heart that balances spiciness and floral elegance, where ginger and clove mingle with the soft sweetness of rose and ylang-ylang, punctuated by the lushness of African orange flower and violet. As it settles, the fragrance reveals a comforting base of vanilla and benzoin, intertwined with the creamy richness of sandalwood and a subtle musk, creating a warm, powdery finish that lingers without overwhelming. This unisex fragrance is especially suited for fall and winter, making it perfect for cozy evenings or casual daytime wear. With moderate longevity and an intimate sillage, Feminité du Bois is versatile enough to accompany you from brunch to a night out. Its unique blend of warm spices and woods, combined with a fruit-forward opening, sets it apart in the realm of modern fragrances. If you appreciate a scent that offers both warmth and complexity, this is a worthy addition to your collection, particularly for fans of fragrances like Tom Ford's Tobacco Vanille.

The opening leans on plum and virginia cedar, then a clove and ginger accord takes over within the first hour. Sandalwood, benzoin, and musk carry the base, which is where the wear ultimately lives. Performance lands in the middle: dependable longevity with measured projection. Lives in the fall-to-winter window at any hour. Verdict: a solid mid-tier pick with broad appeal at 4.1/5.
