Old world romance
This is a wonderful scent to offer a guy friend. But I bought it for me :) It smells clean and vintage and modern and classy all at once. Reminds me of my grandfather in a suit by the lake he used to walk by on Sunday's.
Serge Lutens Un Bois Sepia has a woody fall feel. A fiery hot sun alternates with an icy rain in the memory of a fragrance, a daydream that heralds autumn and already laments the passing of summer. Un Bois Sepia is in the Oriental Woody fragrance group.
from perfumesmellinthings - "Un Bois Sepia is perhaps the least challenging of the series, with its vetiver and sandalwood/patch drydown. It's also arguably the most wearable and certainly a beautiful fragrance with its dance of cool cypress and warm woods."
from perfumeposse - "I always think of this as having no real home or place in the line. Sandalwood, cypress, vetiver, patchouli, opoponax. It’s just not terribly memorable."
