Boucheron Place Vendôme is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2013, created by Nathalie Lorson and Olivier Cresp. Place Vendôme opens with Orange Blossom, Rose, Pink Pepper, and Tangerine, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Peony, Honey, and Praline, and dries down to a base of Cedar and Benzoin. Boucheron's Place Vendôme carries a Favourite verdict, a musk-led wear.

This classy yet understated offering from Boucheron is more 'nice' than 'niche'. It's safe, sophisticated, and universally pleasant, making it a reliable blind buy if you're after something soft and elegant, but prepare for middling performance.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Fall
Also Works:
Winter

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual
Also Works:
Date Formal

Its moderate sillage and soft, elegant profile make it perfect for office wear. While pleasant, its lack of standout projection and moderate longevity mean it's less suited for formal events where a more commanding presence might be desired, and definitely not for sport.

Declarable allergens

We derive these from the materials behind this fragrance's notes, not from the bottle. Each one is likely, not confirmed. The list is partial - the box can name others.

About

Place Vendôme opens with a zesty sparkle of tangerine and a delicate hint of rose, spiced up by pink pepper before settling into a heart of creamy white florals. Jasmine and peony mingle with a gentle, non-cloying honey and a touch of sweet praline. The dry down is a comforting hug of warm benzoin and a soft whisper of cedar, creating a sophisticatedly sweet, almost powdery finish.
