Stéphane Humbert Lucas – Art perfumes by a synaesthete painter

Stéphane Humbert Lucas: the synaesthete perfumer and painter

A nose shaped by the Middle East

Stéphane Humbert Lucas is a rare French perfumer: a synaesthete (he naturally associates colours, sounds and scents) and a painter of renown, he spent much of his career in the Middle East, where he formulated for royal households and confidential Arabian houses. He founded his eponymous house in Paris to free his personal style, which has since become one of the most powerful signatures in French oriental niche perfumery.

The iconic trails of the French house

The Stéphane Humbert Lucas pantheon brings together Venom Incarnat, Sea my Love, Pink Boa, Mortal Skin, Taklamakan and Sand Dance, signatures that have established the house among niche enthusiasts.

Three collections to explore the universe

The house organises its range into three complementary lines. The 777 collection is its iconic heart: fifteen powerful oriental fragrances distilling the perfumer's Middle Eastern experience. The Serpent collection extends his pictorial journeys. Finally, the Exclusive collection gathers the most confidential creations, for connoisseurs of artistic perfumery.

Who should wear Stéphane Humbert Lucas, and when?

Stéphane Humbert Lucas speaks to lovers of powerful, pictorial compositions who want a trail that leaves its mark without compromise. The house is unisex. Its oriental, leathery and amber creations hold their own all year round, especially in autumn and winter. If you enjoy Stéphane Humbert Lucas, you will also love exploring Nejma, Perris Monte Carlo and Houbigant, three other strong oriental signatures at Soleil d'Or.
