La Nuit Tombée is a unisex eau de parfum by Serge Lutens, added to the Collection noire in 2026. The house calls it timeless, chypre and secret: a chypre that dares not speak its name, smoked with olibanum incense, patchouli and cedar, three essences set at the top, heart and base, in the collection’s straight, sober bottle.
Serge Lutens classifies La Nuit Tombée as a chypre. The composition comes down to three natural essences, which the house names plainly: olibanum incense, patchouli and cedar.
Top, heart and base
The house publishes this breakdown: olibanum incense essence at the top, patchouli essence at the heart, cedar essence at the base. The notes are arranged the same way here.
The house says it favors raw materials of natural origin, which in its view alone can give the fragrance a full and complex evolution.
