The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2012 by Olfactive Studio, Lumière Blanche is a woody spicy fragrance created by perfumer Sidonie Lancesseur. The composition opens with the warmth of cardamom and star anise, which cut through to create an immediate sense of brightness and depth. As these top notes settle, they give way to a heart of cinnamon and almond, adding both spiciness and sweetness. The base is dominated by cashmere wood, iris, sandalwood, musk, tonka bean, and cedar — accords that blend into a powdery, musky warmth that feels both familiar and comforting.
Apply Lumière Blanche with two sprays — it develops slowly on skin. The spicy top notes dissipate within an hour but leave behind a lingering musky warmth that lasts throughout the day.
