Introduction :-

Chergui was launched in 2001 under the famous designer cosmetic and fragrance house Serge Lutens. Chergui by Serge Lutens is a Amber Spicy fragrance for Women and Men. Chergui, is a heady, irresistible and warm perfume from Serge Lutens' Collection noire. Where this hot dry Eastern wind delivers up its final reward sap, resin and elixir to be orchestrated into a redolent, candied fragrance by the alchemist, Serge Lutens. "A fire fanned by the wind, a desert in flames. As if bursting from the earth, Chergui, a desert wind, creates an effect that involves suction more than blowing, carrying plants, insects and twigs along in an inescapable ascent. Its full, persistent gusts crystallize shrubs, bushes and berries, which proceed to scorch, shrivel up and pay a final ransom in saps, resins and juices. Night falls on a still smoldering memory, making way for the fragrant, ambery and candied aromas by the alchemist that is Chergui." Says Serge Lutens. Chergui is named for the dry, desert wind that tears through Morocco in summer and brings life to a standstill. Like all of Lutens’ magnificent scent creations, Chergui is high art captured in a bottle, a magical elixir that can instantly turn the most elegant of wearers into slavish wrist sniffers. It’s true poetry in a perfume a hot and breathtaking fragrance that’s not tame and not at all familiar and so gorgeous because of it. A masterpiece by Serge Lutens hailed by the most demanding critics, it remains unique and passed on from insider to insider. A traveler who has visited the village after crossing the desert, worn out from a long journey in the sun, as the scents of the village encircle him. Inspired by a dry & hot wind in Morocco Splendid, seductive & passionate and Ideal for all occasions.

Fragrant and candied flavors orchestrated by the alchemist Serge Lutens. Dry and burning, wind from the Orient, the Chergui has blown Serge Lutens its most soaring perfume. Like the overture to an opera, with its persistent gusts, it raises plants, insects and twigs over a desert in flames in an irresistible ascent. Crystallizing shrubs, bushes and berries in its path, it reduces them to their ultimate ransom. The saps, resins and juices extracted from this burn are found at the heart of an ample perfume, with amber and candied flavors orchestrated by the alchemist Chergui. Its final reward sap, resin and elixir to be orchestrated into a redolent, candied fragrance by the alchemist, Serge Lutens. A rich, smoky aroma inspired by the dry desert winds that carry the earthy scents of nature. It’s an everything people wish for from a perfume named after a legendary wind, sandalwood with a touch of hot incense, honeyed leather and tobacco leaf, it’s quite sweet yet dry, spiced and mysterious. No wimpy, cloying flowers or sticky, humid sugar here Chergui is full bodied and complex and has a sweet spiciness that’s miles away from something girlish or cute. The candied quality melts in the smoke whispers that fill the arrangement, like incense smoke seeping through the carved screens. The floral accord folded into the smoky layers of Chergui lightens density and sweetness, lending a voluptuous silky quality. The fine cured Virginia tobacco notes overlaid on the smoky leathery base give the composition a slightly masculine character, counterbalancing the sweet notes. It has rich sun-drenched hay fields with wafts of incense floating over the bales from a nearby village immediately come into view. Mixed into this heady mixture are puffs of tobacco smoke from some men playing a game of backgammon outside their home and the noble, passionate last breaths of the season’s final rose blossoms. Underlying this are sweet touches of luscious honey and balsamic, ever so slightly camphoric shadings of juniper berries, perhaps alluding to some sappy wood burning in a fire somewhere. As Chergui develops, a marked powdery quality emerges thanks to the iris, but it is reminiscent of warm sand and wind. Spicy like cinnamon, although no such accord is listed, which is probably due to the sandalwood. In the dry down, Chergui becomes more of an amber composition, somewhat sweet and powdery, with a more pronounced muskiness. There is leather listed in the composition, anything leathery, although there is something tantalizingly akin to warm skin. Still, what makes Chergui delightful is that even in the dry down, the fragrance is imbued with the remnants of hay and smokey tobacco. Anyone can wear this at anytime and anywhere.

Recommendation :-

We suggest everyone should try Chergui but it comes with extremely expensive price tag so keep in mind before purchasing it. From the famous designer cosmetic and fragrance brand Serge Lutens.
