Serge Lutens, the hugely renowned makeup artist, hairdresser, fashion photographer, and perfumer is one of the originators of the Niche style of scent, has always looked to his own life and his raw feelings as inspiration. He lived and grew up in difficult circumstances, yet many facets make up his life, and they all somehow end up in his very personal potions.

So Lutens had to leave his mother when he was only a few weeks old and later lived in different host families.  Lutens was traumatized by his mother&#8217;s absence during his childhood, which went on to have an impact on his character and later career. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color has-link-color has-normal-font-size wp-elements-9d79b74b000bdb32cf970b78d3f65792 wp-block-paragraph\">The key to understanding Lutens is to know his emotional connection to his mother. Throughout his artistic journey, he has been creating female figures as inspirations for his work.  These women are an amalgamation of his mother. She is his ultimate muse, driving his creative endeavors in various mediums, including photography, makeup, fashion, and fragrance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color has-link-color has-normal-font-size wp-elements-9694df63f722ec2c703bc18f4efc1f13 wp-block-paragraph\">In each of his works, he intertwined himself with his mother, making her the central subject of his creations. Her presence forms the background and impetus for all of his actions, as he works tirelessly to maintain a sense of connection and presence with her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-073524db79cdb4e03940808640000334 wp-block-paragraph\">Lutens&#8217; creations go beyond mere cosmetics or perfume; they act as canvases to express the essence of the female form. His fascination with female beauty dates back to his childhood. When he was 14, he worked in a salon in Lille, France, and immersed himself in women&#8217;s magazines and films, drawing inspiration from them to develop a uniquely feminine aesthetic characterized by &#8220;fair skin, somber eyes, and bold short hair&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-4d0806563cd66a42615eb3bbedb635e8 wp-block-paragraph\">His innovative designs thrust him into the spotlight and marked a pivotal chapter in his career. Vogue noticed his avant-garde depictions of femininity and recruited his talents. In his later career, whether it was the Dior makeup or his Shiseido period, the unique makeup style he created brought great success to the brands. At the same time, he never gave up on shaping the female image in his heart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-link-color has-normal-font-size wp-elements-e998a7f5d24c5b3f4bbda8bc20cf382d wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Serge-Lutens-Discover-His-Essence-of-the-Female-2-1.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"580\" height=\"678\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Serge-Lutens-Discover-His-Essence-of-the-Female-2-1.jpg?resize=580%2C678&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-146627\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Serge-Lutens-Discover-His-Essence-of-the-Female-2-1.jpg?w=872&amp;ssl=1 872w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Serge-Lutens-Discover-His-Essence-of-the-Female-2-1.jpg?resize=256%2C300&amp;ssl=1 256w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Serge-Lutens-Discover-His-Essence-of-the-Female-2-1.jpg?resize=768%2C898&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 580px) 100vw, 580px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color has-link-color has-normal-font-size wp-elements-55955d340bdf4c8204826203ae94aee8 wp-block-paragraph\">According to Serge Lutens, his childhood loneliness and emotions were the basis for creating the <a>L&#8217;orpheline<\/a> fragrance, a scent that is celebrating its 10-year anniversary<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-secondary-color has-text-color has-link-color has-normal-font-size wp-elements-69cd5aab3a07f8985bfbf9d49e3f04f2 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>\u201cPerfume is a form of writing, an ink, a choice made in the first person, the dot on the I, a weapon, a courteous gesture, part of the instant, a consequence.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right has-secondary-color has-text-color has-link-color has-normal-font-size wp-elements-ff1f358287ad87cdd924febebd3480ab wp-block-paragraph\">Serge Lutens<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-b2ef6ec108e087401a2c886489c74cb7 wp-block-paragraph\">L&#8217;orpheline is described by Lutens as his &#8216;mother&#8217;s wound&#8217;, &#8216;a part of him that was abandoned and to which he attributes feminine qualities&#8217;. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-9e96d1ea37ea08cd6455c211c853a1ac wp-block-paragraph\">According to Lutens, the world can be divided into three parts, the father, the mother, and himself. He sees themselves as both the mother&#8217;s figurehead and the father&#8217;s assassin, unable to fully heal from the wounds inflicted by the father.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-82956be866896f7e4ec5ef455526b202 wp-block-paragraph\">It symbolizes a journey towards memory and forgiveness, leading to a sense of survival and enduring essence.

His fascination with female beauty dates back to his childhood. When he was 14, he worked in a salon in Lille, France, and immersed himself in women's magazines and films, drawing inspiration from them to develop a uniquely feminine aesthetic characterized by \"fair skin, somber eyes, and bold short hair\". Vogue noticed his avant-garde depictions of femininity and recruited his talents. In his later career, whether it was the Dior makeup or his Shiseido period, the unique makeup style he created brought great success to the brands. At the same time, he never gave up on shaping the female image in his heart.","breadcrumb":{"@id":"https:\/\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/?p=145870#breadcrumb"},"inLanguage":"en-GB","potentialAction":[{"@type":"ReadAction","target":["https:\/\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/?p=145870"]}]},{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"en-GB","@id":"https:\/\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/?p=145870#primaryimage","url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Screenshot-2024-02-16-at-13.46.36.png?fit=300%2C300&ssl=1","contentUrl":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Screenshot-2024-02-16-at-13.46.36.png?fit=300%2C300&ssl=1","width":300,"height":300},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","@id":"https:\/\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/?p=145870#breadcrumb","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https:\/\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Serge Lutens;
