  I have to say, I tested it at the same time as others, and seeming to be short on potency, perhaps for both reasons, I didn’t feel it as it should. Unlike Serge Noire, this one I definitely want to try again because it left me wanting more. It’s hard to talk about the notes because I perceived it more as a blend, but what I intuited didn’t seem to smell bad. Combining jasmine with animalic notes, with the slightly sweet counterpoint that Lutens ALWAYS introduces, could be a great idea.

  Sweet jasmine with a slight touch of civet and a trail of musks. To me, it smells a bit girly—young and with decent performance. It’s fairly linear as well. More suited to summer climates than winter, and personally, I think it would suit a feminine skin better. Not much more to say here. I believe it’s one of Lutens’ least brilliant launches in recent years, as while it really doesn’t smell bad, it’s nothing special or standout.

  I like it, but it’s nothing like I expected from a Serge Lutens perfume called La Religieuse. It’s very floral, like a sparkling jasmine soap. That said, for something so clean and discreet, it still clings to my wrist the next day, as if I’d applied a luxurious jasmine lotion. It could be interesting for summer, and I wouldn’t mind having it in my collection, but there are flashier options that rank higher on my list.

  A JASMINE LIKE A WHISPER IN SILENCE At first, it seemed very simple, but over time I’ve truly appreciated it. Its beauty lies in that naturalness that isn’t empty, but full of a stillness that captivates. In La Religieuse, there’s a tender, almost reverent jasmine—creamy and clean. The drydown is soft, wrapped in sensual musks, and I never noticed any animalic notes or the ecclesiastical incense others mention. It doesn’t seek attention or compliments; its purpose is to invite us on an inner journey, an introspective experience. This jasmine seems to be in the heart of a cloister, hidden in its purity, inviting us to discover it slowly and calmly, leaving the outside noise behind. Definitely, La Religieuse has a silent sensuality, so subtle yet powerful, that has conquered me. 🍀

  A well-behaved jasmine with a vintage animalic base, yet not an olfactory bomb (even though ‘animalic’ usually scares people off, here it’s perfectly fine). It’s discreet, elegant, and summery, though it lacks that dark Lutens touch I was hoping for in an incense that never really shows up.
