Lalique Lalique White in Black is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2021, created by Karine Dubreuil-Sereni. Lalique White in Black opens with Bergamot, Grapefruit, and Frankincense, settles into a heart of Lavender, Pink Pepper, Cardamom, and Elemi, and dries down to a base of Cedar, Patchouli, Vanilla, and Ambroxan. Lalique's Lalique White in Black carries a Favourite verdict, a musk-led wear.

This one's a smooth, creamy amber-vanilla that gets compared to Layton more often than it gets remembered for its own merits. It's a solid, affordable option, but don't expect beast-mode longevity - it's more about that subtle, elegant skin scent.

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 Winter

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Casual

Its moderate projection and smooth, inoffensive nature make it highly suitable for office and casual wear. While pleasant for a date, its lack of standout boldness might not suit formal events, and it's 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.

Declarable under EU Annex III

  • Bergamot Citrus Aurantium Bergamia Peel Oil from Bergamot
  • Lavender Lavandula Hybrida Oil from Lavender
  • Vanillin from Vanilla

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

Lalique White in Black kicks off with a brief citrus sparkle of bergamot and grapefruit before quickly settling into a warm, inviting heart of aromatic lavender, spicy cardamom, and a hint of pink pepper. The real star, though, is the deeply comforting drydown: rich amber, creamy vanilla, and balsamic tolu, all grounded by earthy patchouli and clean cedar, wrapped in a smooth ambroxan embrace.
