The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2017 by Lalique and crafted by perfumer Alexandra Monet, Lumière is a chypre floral that captures the essence of light itself. The composition opens with mandarin orange and saffron, creating an initial burst of brightness before settling into a heart of jasmine sambac and tuberose, which add a lush, white floral warmth. This balance is further enhanced by notes of patchouli and cashmere wood, grounding the fragrance in earthy, woody tones. The base, featuring musk and bitter almond, adds an enveloping quality that lingers softly.
For best effect, apply Lumière sparingly — its top notes are bright but transient. The white floral heart and woody base will develop over time, creating a subtle yet enduring presence that is perfect for both day and night.
