A Sultry and Sophisticated Vanilla Experience
Un Bois Vanille by Serge Lutens is a captivating Eau De Parfum that blends warmth, sweetness, and an unexpected edge. Crafted by master perfumer Christopher Sheldrake, this fragrance brings a fresh take on vanilla, making it feel luxurious and grown-up. With its rich and sultry composition, it’s perfect for those who love a vanilla scent with depth and complexity.

Key Ingredients
Un Bois Vanille is distinguished by its distinctive blend of ingredients. The heart of black vanilla absolute is complemented by the warmth of sandalwood and coconut milk. Subtle hints of licorice, caramelized benzoin, and tonka bean add to the fragrance's allure, giving it a unique, smoky-sweet finish that lingers.
How to Apply & When to Wear
For the best effect, apply Un Bois Vanille to pulse points, such as the wrists and neck. This warm, sweet fragrance is ideal for evening wear or special occasions where you want to make a lasting impression. Its luxurious and sultry profile is particularly suited for cooler months, adding depth and richness to your scent collection.
