Louis Vuitton Contre Moi is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2016, created by Jacques Cavallier-Belletrud. Contre Moi opens with Green Notes, Bergamot, and Lemon, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, Rose, Magnolia, and Pear, and dries down to a base of Cacao Pod and Vanilla. Louis Vuitton's Contre Moi carries a Statement verdict, a fresh-led wear.

This one's a modern classic, a chameleon of a vanilla scent that had us all mourning its discontinuation. It's divisive, for sure; some got powdery florals, others raw cacao and suede. But if you're lucky enough to find it, prepare for a unique blend that's anything but ordinary.

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.

About

Contre Moi opens with a bright, green citrus burst from bergamot and lemon, quickly mellowing into a lush floral heart of rose, magnolia, and orange blossom, touched with a hint of sweet pear. The magic happens in the dry down as a rich, aromatic cacao pod emerges, perfectly balanced by a warm, delicate vanilla, creating a surprisingly fresh, yet subtly gourmand experience.
