Sarrasins לעומת De Profundis

Sarrasins is appreciated by the community as a beautifully composed dark jasmine fragrance with evocative smoky incense notes that creates strong emotional memories. However, there are concerns about Serge Lutens reformulations over time potentially diminishing its quality, and some users report undesirable notes that prevent them from enjoying it despite respecting its artistry.

De Profundis is a highly beloved discontinued Serge Lutens fragrance with a devoted following in the r/fragrance community. While universally praised by those who own it as a top-tier scent, the main challenge is its scarcity and inflated secondary market prices, with authenticity concerns for potential buyers. The fragrance is considered a prized item among serious collectors.
