Arpège or Éclat d'Arpège?
Before buying a Lanvin perfume, know that Arpège and Éclat d'Arpège are different fragrances.
They were released 75 years apart. Arpège, first released in 1927, combines aldehydes, jasmine, rose, ylang-ylang, sandalwood and vanilla.
Aldehydes can smell different depending on which ones are used. Some have sparkling qualities; others smell waxy or soapy. Here, they add character to the floral notes, with woods, musk and vanilla rounding off the scent. If you enjoy traditional floral fragrances with woodiness, Arpège is one to compare.
Éclat d'Arpège Smells of Lilac, Green Tea and Peach Blossom
Released in 2002, Éclat d'Arpège takes a lighter direction. Green lilac and Sicilian lemon leaves open the fragrance. Wisteria, peach blossom, red peony and green tea follow.
White cedar, amber and musk complete the scent. Green tea adds a light, fresh feel. Peach blossom brings a subtle fruity floral quality rather than a strong peach scent.
Musk gives it a soft finish. If you want a fresh floral from Lanvin, compare Éclat d'Arpège. When replacing a bottle, check the full name, as there are several variations.
Jeanne Lanvin Smells Like Blackberry and Pear
Released in 2008, Jeanne Lanvin Eau de Parfum opens with blackberry, pear and lemon. Raspberry, peony, rose and freesia follow, with musk, sandalwood and amber at the base.
Blackberry and raspberry give it a fruitier feel than Éclat d'Arpège. Pear adds lightness, while rose and peony bring flowers into the mix. If you enjoy fruity florals but don't want green tea and lilac, Jeanne Lanvin could be an option.
Modern Princess Smells Like Red Apple and Redcurrant
Lanvin Modern Princess Eau de Parfum was released in 2016. Christophe Raynaud used red apple and redcurrant alongside freesia and jasmine.
Vanilla orchid, white musk and white woods complete the fragrance. The flowers soften the fruity notes, while vanilla orchid and musk add warmth. If you're choosing between Modern Princess and Jeanne Lanvin, compare the fruits. Jeanne Lanvin has blackberry, pear and raspberry. Modern Princess features apple and redcurrant.
Marry Me! Smells Like Peach, Not Peach Dessert
Marry Me! Eau de Parfum was released in 2010. Bitter orange, peach and freesia open the fragrance. Jasmine, magnolia and rose follow, with musk, cedarwood and amber at the base. Bitter orange adds a sharper citrus quality.
Although it contains peach, it doesn't focus on caramel or vanilla. There are plenty of flowers here. If you want a fruity floral without a dessert-like feel, compare it with Jeanne Lanvin.
A Girl in Capri Is for Citrus Lovers
A Girl in Capri Eau de Toilette moves away from berries. Italian lemon and bergamot combine with grapefruit blossom and marine notes.
White musk, driftwood and amber complete the scent, giving it a citrus feel with woody notes. If you enjoy citrus openings, compare this with the fruitier Modern Princess and Jeanne Lanvin.
Are There Lanvin Fragrances for Men?
Yes. These include Lanvin L'Homme, released in 1997, and Éclat d'Arpège Pour Homme, released in 2015.
Don't assume that Éclat d'Arpège Pour Homme smells like the women's version because they share a name. Check the fragrance notes before choosing.
