Stéphane Humbert Lucas – Art perfumes by a synaesthete painter

Stéphane Humbert Lucas: art perfumes by a synaesthete painter

The synaesthete artist and the founding of the maison

Stéphane Humbert Lucas is the French art-perfumery house founded in 2012 by the eponymous synaesthete and artist-painter, former perfumer at SoOud and Roja Parfums. The particularity of the maison stems from the cognitive condition of its founder: synaesthesia, neurological phenomenon by which colours, sounds and scents are perceived in correspondence. Stéphane Humbert Lucas transcribes these visions into pictorial olfactive compositions, where the perfume becomes the prolongation of a chromatic and sensorial work.

The maison's signature scents

The Stéphane Humbert Lucas pantheon brings together Soleil de Jeddah, Venom Incarnat, Sea my Love, Taklamakan and God of Fire — a roster of pictorial signatures that bear witness to the unique olfactive writing of the founder.

Three collections to explore Stéphane Humbert Lucas

The maison structures its catalogue into three differentiated lines. The 777 Collection gathers the powerful orientals inherited from the Middle East. The Serpent Collection deepens symbolic and powerful journeys, and the Exclusive Collection gathers the maison's confidential creations.

Who is Stéphane Humbert Lucas for, and when to wear it?

Stéphane Humbert Lucas speaks to lovers of art perfumery, who appreciate compositions inscribed in a strong artistic universe. The house is unisex. Creations sit in the oriental, ambery, woody, floral and aquatic families, and shine year-round depending on creation. If you enjoy Stéphane Humbert Lucas, you will also want to explore Nejma (other narrative oriental), Tiziana Terenzi and the Houbigant Orientale Collection — three other narrative oriental signatures at Soleil d'Or.
