Un Bois Vanille by Serge Lutens is an Amber Vanilla fragrance designed for both men and women. Launched in 2003, this scent is the creative work of fragrance artist Christopher Sheldrake. The perfume is a radiant, dry, and carnal expression from Serge Lutens' Collection Noire. It captures a delicious, wood-scented journey to the heart of Aztec Mexico, a tribute to the discovery of heavenly nectar, vanilla, by the conquistador Hernán Cortes. The primary note of vanilla is gracefully underpinned with features promising a hint of the Orient. The base notes of licorice and sandalwood ensure the scent remains sophisticated and distinct.
