Modern Princess

by Christophe Raynaud

Lanvin Modern Princess is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2016, created by Christophe Raynaud. The fragrance opens with Red Currant and Red Apple, settles into a heart of Jasmine and Freesia, and dries down to a base of Orchid, Woody, and Musk.

Our verdict on Modern Princess: Favourite

Modern Princess is a sweet, fresh ode to red apple that's tragically let down by woeful performance. It's a delightful, youthful scent but fades faster than a fleeting thought. Ideal for those who love overspraying and fruit-forward fragrances without commitment. Otherwise, you're better off with a body mist.

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

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

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport

Its minimal sillage and poor longevity make it suitable for close-contact settings like the office or casual outings without being overwhelming. It's too light for formal events and not quite unique enough for a memorable date, but the fresh fruitiness works well for a quick post-gym refresh.

About

It bursts open with a juicy, tart blend of red apple and redcurrant, a truly invigorating fruity punch. This vibrant start quickly mellows, allowing the soft, clean freshness of jasmine and freesia to emerge, adding a touch of feminine grace. The dry down, though brief, rounds out into a cozy, subtle embrace of woody notes and a hint of musk, leaving a faint, intimate aura.
