Guerlain Frenchy Lavande is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2021, created by Delphine Jelk. Frenchy Lavande opens with Bergamot, Lemon, and Lemon Verbena, settles into a heart of Citron, Petitgrain, Neroli, and Lavender, and dries down to a base of Vetiver, Tonka Bean, and Ambergris. Guerlain's Frenchy Lavande carries a Favourite verdict, a fresh-led wear.

Don't let the name fool you - this ain't your grandma's lavender. It's a crisp, zesty citrus bomb with an understated herbal backbone. A fresh, clean scent that many adore, but the eye-watering price tag is a major point of contention.

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.

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.

The large name is the everyday one. The small name is the INCI form on the box, so you can compare the two. Reactions differ between people. A patch-test panel is not a ranking of risk. How we derive this

About

Opens with an invigorating, sharp burst of lemon and bright verbena, giving a distinctly zesty and almost mouth-puckering freshness. The lavender is there, but definitely plays second fiddle, lending an aromatic, slightly herbal dryness. As it settles, hints of petitgrain and sage emerge, weaving into a clean, green, and subtly woody base brightened by ambergris and a touch of creamy tonka.
