Serge Lutens - Gratte-Ciel Collection Muscs Koublaï Khan

A tribute to China and its splendor during the reign of the legendary Kublai Khan, revealing a multitude of singular stages, with echoes of gold, lacquer work, and the smoky dens of Khanbaliq.

"Valuable furs were laid out for the Emperor of China to walk on with his mud-filled boots. Ultra-animalistic musks and all kinds of tanned leather make a sensational debut in the fragrance. Be careful, however, of their aggressiveness; once on the skin, they retract their claws to leave only velvet paws!" - Serge Lutens

"Higher and higher!"
While everyone called this new collection "signature," a series of questions buzzed in my head. Besides black, what other color could be attributed to a refusal?
What more radical line would be allowed to demonstrate my relentless will? Was it not the armor compared to the knight whose task in battle is to wear it?
The bottle speaks to me and says: "Do not alter the perfection I inherently possess. The indescribable sensuality I enclose is already too eloquent."
"Go back to being silent," I tell it. "Skin is not glass and will confess what you love to keep quiet."
