The story behind the bottle.
Cannibale by Serge Lutens was launched in 2015 and crafted by perfumer Christopher Sheldrake. The fragrance is a bold and vibrant composition that captures the essence of hunger and desire, both primal and sensual. As described by the brand, Cannibale leaves a vibrant acidity on the nose and skin, reminiscent of the floral vinegars of 18th century France. This distinctive scent oscillates between sharp, tangy top notes and a warm, enveloping base, creating an intriguing tension that keeps the senses engaged.
Cannibale has a strong presence, so one or two sprays are sufficient. The top notes are particularly vibrant, so it's best to let them settle for a few minutes before heading out. This fragrance is ideal for daytime or evening wear, depending on the mood you want to convey.
