La Fille de Berlin
La Fille de Berlin by Serge Lutens is a feminine-leaning eau de parfum from 2013 in the niche price tier. It opens with damask rose and bulgarian rose, moves into black pepper and geranium and dries down to musk and honey. Expect around 9 hours of wear, and it projects strongly.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Damask Rose The rich, jammy, honeyed rose. Deep and slightly wine-like.
- Bulgarian Rose Fresh, dewy and green. The 'real rose garden' version.
Heart
- Black Pepper Dry and prickly. Gives a fragrance grip and a bit of bite.
- Geranium Rosy and minty at once. Reads masculine more often than not.
Dry-down
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Honey Sweet, waxy and slightly animalic. Can smell dirty in large doses.
