Alone in Babylon

Alone in Babylon arrives in 2026 from Stéphane Humbert Lucas, a Parisian house that places it in its 777 collection. Presented as unisex, it describes itself as a contemporary oriental floral that upends the codes of gourmand perfumery.

The hanging gardens

The house links it to the myth of the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, where beauty springs up where it is least expected and flowers grow in the most unlikely places. It sums up its approach in one line: “When Dorian Gray meets Scheherazade.”

A gourmand that denies it

Stéphane Humbert Lucas calls it an anti-gourmand gourmand, sweet without being syrupy, sensual without being predictable. A lacquered, cosmetic facet, compared to blue gold, extends the tuberose and the banana, before sandalwood and castoreum amplify the composition.

What is still missing

The house sells Alone in Babylon in a 50 ml bottle but specifies neither its concentration nor the name of its perfumer, and no signed review has commented on it yet.
