Lanvin Blue Orchid is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2021, created by Alexandra Carlin. Blue Orchid opens with Lemon and Apple, settles into a heart of Iris and Orchid, and dries down to a base of Musk and Tonka Bean. Lanvin's Blue Orchid carries a Favourite verdict, a powdery-led wear.

This is a clean, crisp floral with a soft, powdery iris that offers a refreshingly understated elegance. It's often hailed as an affordable dupe for pricier alternatives, but its divisive apple note and subtle performance means it's not for everyone - blind buy at your own risk.

About

Blue Orchid opens with a bright, tart burst of lemon and a sweet, juicy apple that quickly settles into a powdery iris heart. The orchid note, though present in the name, is subtle, overshadowed by the musky, clean floral. A soft tonka bean in the base adds a touch of warmth and sweetness, keeping it from being too sharp or cold, creating a 'just-showered' aura.
