Our verdict on Orage: Favourite

Louis Vuitton's Orage. This 'thunderstorm in a bottle' is a beautifully crafted fresh-earthy scent, though its divisive performance makes the eye-watering price tag a bitter pill to swallow for many. You'll either adore its unique, understated elegance or resent its poor longevity.

Its fresh, understated nature makes it ideal for office and casual wear, providing a clean scent bubble without being intrusive. While it has an elegant dry down, its often-reported poor projection and longevity mean it might not make the desired impact in a formal or date setting.

About

Orage opens with a bright, zesty burst of bergamot and grapefruit, swiftly leading into a fresh, earthy heart where clean patchouli, peppery iris, and the floral lift of hedione intertwine. The dry down settles into a sophisticated blend of vetiver, musk, and the airy woodiness of Iso E Super, evoking the serene calm after a downpour. It's a nuanced composition, masterfully blending invigorating freshness with damp, grounding earthiness.
