Candle Lui
An ode to the French men’s magazine Lui, which has gone through many launches and closures. The story began in 1963, inspired by the success of the American Playboy and wanting to create an analogue, but with a French touch. The publication had all the attributes of a men’s magazine and an excess of nudity, but always with good taste. Lui gave the world many legendary shoots, one of them with Jane Birkin and Serge Gainsbourg.
In 2013, after a long break, the magazine returned with a focus on fashion and luxurious nudity without a hint of vulgarity, with A-list photographers and editors, and with Frédéric Beigbeder in the editor-in-chief chair. In 2020, the very last issue of the updated Lui was released, but the veil of this edition forever hang in the air and settled on the shelves of collectors.
Lui smells like its name – it’s his fragrance, with a confident woody base of cedarwood and pine. The heart of an olfactory pyramid is imbued with nutmeg, which creates this masculine accord, combined with tart cloves and smoky honey figs. Wormwood sets the green-balsamic tone of the composition, the woody base is confirmed by the sweet-coniferous juniper berries mixed with delicate pink pepper. This is the scent of a modern gentleman.
