Aurea Caviar Reserve™
Powered by Aurea Caviar Reserve™ — a proprietary Swiss formulation of cosmetic-grade gold paired with caviar extract, a collagen-supporting tripeptide, a bio-fermented black tea, silicon-bonded hyaluronic acid, Vitamin E, and Alpine edelweiss — backed by four years of laboratory development in Switzerland.
Caviar Extract
Rich in omega fatty acids and amino acids that nourish and revitalize mature skin.
Gold with Acetyl Heptapeptide-9
A gold peptide duo that supports the look of firm, luminous, vital skin.
Dimethylsilanol Hyaluronate
Silicon bound hyaluronate, among the first ingredients in the formula, for deep and lasting hydration.
Black Tea Ferment
Improves the look of smoothness, density, and natural radiance.
Hydrolyzed Collagen and Milk Protein
Condition and support the look of skin elasticity.
Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5
A Swiss peptide that supports the skin's own natural collagen.
Organic Edelweiss (Leontopodium Alpinum Flower/Leaf Extract)
Alpine antioxidant that helps defend skin from environmental stress.
Artemisia Genepi Flower Extract
Calms and comforts the look of reactive skin.
Vitamin E (Tocopheryl Acetate)
Protects against free radicals and supports the skin barrier.
Light reflecting minerals
An immediate satin luminosity that flatters the skin while the actives work.
What this serum doesn’t do.
Doesn’t pill under cream or SPF.
The lipid complexes within Aurea Caviar Reserve™ were calibrated against silicone-based and mineral SPF formulas to absorb cleanly at the sixty-second mark. Layers cleanly with Elixir Gold & Caviar Cream and with your SPF in the morning.
Doesn’t leave a metallic residue.
The cosmetic-grade gold dissolves into a satin finish on contact with skin temperature. Visible luminosity stays; no glitter, no streak, no transfer to clothing or pillowcase. The luminous finish is the formula working — not a surface effect.
Doesn’t sting on sensitive or post-procedure skin.
No essential oils. Artemisia Genépi is included to calm reactivity through the application window.

View ritual sets
Glacial Toner
The bridge between cleanse and treatment. Glacial Mineral Complex™ calibrates pH to the absorption window the Elixir Serum requires — without it, this serum cannot perform as designed.

Elixir Gold & Caviar Cream
Designed as a pair with this serum. The cream seals in and amplifies every active Aurea Caviar Reserve™ delivers — the caviar lipid envelope is the long-wear layer the serum cannot carry on its own.

Gold & Caviar Ritual
The complete four-step ritual — Cleanser, Toner, Serum, and Cream — calibrated to work in concert. The Gold & Caviar Ritual.
What customers are saying
Everything you might wonder
about the treatment step.
Most users note a change in radiance and texture within the first 7–14 days. The visible firming and lifting effect — driven by Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5 within Aurea Caviar Reserve™ — develops over 28–84 days. Twice-daily use is recommended for the full effect.
Two things customers cite when they switch to the Elixir Serum from another prestige caviar serum at this price tier. First, SÉRÈNE discloses the actual ingredient research behind every claim, rather than wrapping the formula in proprietary language alone. Second, the formula brings together ten actives — including Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5 — at concentrations published by their suppliers, in a single serum at a meaningful fraction of comparable prestige caviar pricing.
Yes. The formula contains no essential oils. Artemisia Genépi is included to calm reactivity. We recommend a 24-hour patch test on the inner forearm.
Yes — alternate days or alternate routines (retinol PM, Elixir AM) work well. For prescription tretinoin, allow the toner to fully absorb (sixty to ninety seconds) before applying tretinoin to minimise sensation, then apply the Serum and Cream once the tretinoin has absorbed.
The serum and the cream are designed as a pair. The serum delivers Aurea Caviar Reserve™ into the skin; the cream then seals the actives in and adds the caviar lipid envelope as the long-wear layer. Apply the serum first, allow sixty seconds for absorption, then follow with the cream. In the morning, finish with SPF.
Yes. The caviar extract is sourced responsibly, and the serum is cruelty-free: nothing is tested on animals at any stage.
The 30 ml bottle is calibrated for one user, twice-daily application, lasting approximately sixty days. Two to three drops per application is the prescribed dose; more does not deliver more.
Unopened products in their original sealed packaging may be returned within 30 days of delivery. For hygiene and safety reasons we cannot accept returns of opened products. Damaged or defective items are replaced or refunded. Return shipping is paid by the customer; refunds are issued within 7 business days of receipt.
Complimentary express delivery. Unopened returns within 30 days.
Every US order ships express, 2–4 business days. Unopened products in their original sealed packaging may be returned within 30 days of delivery; for hygiene and safety reasons opened products cannot be returned. Return shipping is paid by the customer.
