Hi,

I just started a thread on the men's forum looking for nineteen Lutens to be included in a poll.

Please help me whittle it down to just our favorite favorites.

Thanks,

My hero! I am always in for something Lutens. I would suggest:

Chergui
Arabie
Ambre Sultan
MKK
Cuir Mauresque
Bornéo 1834
Santal de Mysore
Douce Amère
Fumerie Turque
Un Lys
Sarrasins
Chene
Iris Silver Mist
Datura Noir
Tubéreuse Criminelle
Encens et Lavande
Rahat Loukoum
Un Bois Vanille
and Féminité du Bois as the mother of the "Bois" scents in the line

Based not only on my faves but on those I see most often worn and discussed on BN.

all 19, (why 19? and not 20? )
but I'll share with you a few
that I think are crucial for a poll .

Chergui
Bornéo 1834
Santal Blanc
Arabie
Cedre
Daim Blond
Ambre Sultan
Miel de Bois
Cuir Mauresque
Fleurs d'Oranger
Fumerie Turque

The 20th and final selection has been reserved for "My favorite Lutens is not Listed"

Thanks everybody, please keep the lists coming!

Iris Silver Mist (my favourite and very different from the rest)
Cuir Mauresque
Tubereuse Criminelle
Fleurs d'Oranger
Feminite du Bois
MKK

Of the ones I've tried I think these all kind of stand out as unique. I haven't actually listed all my favourites here, but rather the ones that I think make a statement or represent something.

Spicie, Tworoads opened his first poll already, on the guys' side. He decided to split it between exports and non-exports, therefore almost every Lutens will be covered
