“The flower of elegance, which adorns the costumes” Serge Lutens

Vitriol d’Oeillet is a tribute to the British dandy-thug in northern Europe, in London in the 19th century, who wore a white carnation in their buttonhole… and a bowler hat.

And in the south of Europe in Sicily. Mafiosi wear a red carnation in their buttonhole… and a borsalino.

The eyelet… 2 colors. 2 men. 2 territories. … Flower of duplicity? … Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde?

In alchemy… To make vitriol is to separate the pure and the impure from the philosophical matter. The transformation of metals … but also of the human being: A poison which transforms the being! Vitriol d’Oeillet is a dangerous perfume, which reveals a hidden personality. A perfume in the buttonholes. A carnation that hides its game well … Elegant, dangerous and fatal. A dandy. An eyelet in the buttonhole. A top hat that hides the eyes. Gentleman or ripper? A scent of anger. A scent of danger.

Serge Lutens Vitriol d’Oeillet will be available as an Eau de Parfum 50 ml.
