Launched in 2018 and crafted by Jacques Cavallier Belletrud, Sur la Route by Louis Vuitton is a Citrus Aromatic fragrance that embodies the essence of an adventurous journey. The composition opens with a vibrant burst of Calabrian bergamot and lemon, punctuated by the spicy kick of pink pepper. As it evolves, green grass and hedione add a fresh, almost leafy layer before woody notes like cedar and leather anchor the scent in earthy warmth. The result is a fragrance that captures the thrill of setting out on an open road, with unexpected twists along the way.

Application Tips
Apply Sur la Route in light layers — the bright citrus top notes are assertive but fleeting. The woody base emerges gradually, so it's best enjoyed close to skin rather than from a distance. Ideal for daytime adventures when you want an energetic yet grounded scent.
