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 Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date

Its fresh, mild sillage makes it ideal for office wear and casual outings, offering a refreshing presence without being overpowering. While somewhat versatile, its distinctive herbal character might be too casual for very formal settings, and its 'ethereal' nature doesn't lend itself to high-impact date nights. It excels in hot weather, making it suitable for activity.

About

A truly distinctive fragrance, Eau de Lalique opens with a vibrant, almost bracing zest of lemon and bergamot, quickly spiced up by the intriguing blend of cardamom and an unexpected dill note. The heart introduces a subtle warmth from cinnamon and a delicate floral touch of freesia and hibiscus, preventing it from straying into purely culinary territory. It settles into a smooth, clean woody base of sandalwood and guaiac wood, softened by a hint of musk and benzoin.
