legendary perfumer Serge Lutens luxury palace in Marrakech

35 years of work for the legendary perfumer Serge Lutens at his palace in Marrakech, in the move he will never.

This luxury property in marrakech, which is actually made of several buildings and Serge Lutens  worked 35 years, at the same times with 500 artisans, is a unique place, comparable only with works of art like Marcel Duchamp's last secret object "Etant donnés", Marcel Proust's "In In Search of Lost Time "or the artificial paradise, which the author Joris-Karl Huysmans 'Des Esseintes for the dandy in his novel' in Against the grain".

Serge Lutens said to vogue: I got to know Marrakech 1968th, It was just adorable - the sky, the smiles of the people, this kindness, this beauty, everything. Actually I wanted to stay only ten days - it was three months. In 1974 I came here with a plan to buy a house. I found wonderful objects, but they were either too big or too small, or otherwise not what it was true. Three days before my departure I took an elderly man in white Djellabah the arm and said: "Come, I know what you are looking for!" .He led me to this amazing old house.
