Lanvin Jeanne Lanvin My Sin is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1924, created by Madame Zed. Jeanne Lanvin My Sin opens with Bergamot, Lemon, Neroli, and Clary Sage, settles into a heart of Rose, Jasmine, Iris, and Ylang-Ylang, and dries down to a base of Woody Notes, Musk, Vetiver, and Vanilla. Lanvin's Jeanne Lanvin My Sin carries an Acquired verdict, a floral-led wear.

This legendary classic is a divisive beast: some find it a sexy, musky dream, while others recoil from its challenging animalic notes. Expect a powerful, old-school glamour that certainly isn't for everyone, but those who love it, *really* love it.

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.

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

With a moderate sillage, this perfume is too intense and attention-grabbing for most office settings. Its complex, sensual character and references to 'sinful' and 'provocative' make it perfect for date nights and formal evening events where a bold statement is desired. It's too rich for casual or sport wear.

About

My Sin opens with a sparkling burst of aldehydes, zesty bergamot, and neroli, quickly giving way to a rich, complex floral heart. Heady jasmine, romantic rose, and powdery iris intertwine with narcotic ylang-ylang and delicate lily of the valley. The true intrigue lies in its base: warm, woody notes merge with creamy vanilla, animalic civet, and smoky styrax, creating a deeply sensual and unforgettable drydown.
