Disturbingly feminine, this opulent, spicy rose shatters the image of the beautiful Parisian woman, with her Eiffel Tower and other clichés! Even its name, which plays on the similarity between “tour de fer and Tour Eiffel”, makes a mockery of all Parisian clichés!
There’s nothing evanescent about this new Serge Lutens fragrance, which reinvents the Parisian woman and pays tribute to her chic, her “dog” and her power!
La fille tour de fer (eau de parfum 50 ml, €142 or 100 ml, €213) is part of the Collection Noire, with its sleek, rectilinear bottles adorned with a small sphere of black bakelite. Their very sobriety further underlines the richness and sumptuousness of the ingredients.
Here, rose reigns supreme (Turkish rose absolute with geranium and rose oxide facets for a metallic edge, and Bulgarian rose absolute with fruitier tones of raspberry and lychee), but a modern, punchy rose with character!
A spicy character, thanks to the fresh, peppery, natural essence of pink berries in the top note. Subtle, elegant iris notes add a touch of chic.
Serge Lutens’ compositions are always enigmas to be deciphered by noses…
