Olivia Giacobetti created Idole de Lubin EDT in 2005 for the French fragrance house Lubin Paris. In 2012, the EDP version was launched and it replaced the EDT version.

According to the Lubin press release, Idole de Lubin EDT was ‘Inspired by the ancient maritime spice routes, from Madagascar and Zanzibar in East Africa to Java in the Spice Islands of Indonesia, Idole is a seductive fragrance that never overwhelms.  Rum and exotic spices mingle with dark, smoky woods and leather, creating a warm and seductive fragrance.’

In the words of Olivia Giacobetti herself: 'Set the jungle on fire with a woody liqueur rich in scorching spices, as sweet as sugar cane, and as warm as leather.'

Serge Mansau, acclaimed French artist and perfume bottle designer, designed the bottle. The faceted bottle is a sensuous, curved shape, and it’s capped with a carved African mask. It’s a true collector’s item.

Notes: Rum absolute, saffron, bitter orange peel, black cumin, doum palm, smoked ebony, sugar cane, leather, red sandalwood
