Retro society with surprise
Flowers and aldehydes determine the big entrance: dark green velvet, long white gloves, sparkling chandeliers accompany the rustling of the clothes. People look at each other, the atmosphere is quickly dark and warm. An old-fashioned abstract-modern bouquet of flowers is gradually illuminated in individual points and yet it can only be perceived as an overall picture, accompanied, among other things, by a vetiver tone that suddenly glows magnificently after a few hours, which really amazes me until more and more wood joins in and peace returns. A strange time, a distant time. To wear it as a fragrance pleases AugustA.

Black lilac
This is my first comment, I beg your indulgence :-) For a long time I was looking for the ultimate lilac scent, which should remind me of the scent of the dark purple lilac in the garden of my childhood. So I tested the younger sister of Arpège and was disappointed. Disgruntled, I reached for the deep black bottle with the golden cap and suddenly I was wide awake! Lilac, just like I remembered! There is no lilac in the pyramid of fragrance, obviously my nose is playing a trick on me ;-) Of course I bought this scent immediately. That my mother, who died years ago, wore Arpège as a signature scent (apparently before I was born), I only found out much later. In my memory she sprayed herself with Madame Rochas.
Arpège is a wonderful soft fragrance with depth and character and for me it smells like lilac, whether it is contained or not. Unfortunately my husband does not like it at all :-(

The little sister of Coco came to stay...
Dear Readers
welcome back to one of my new comments. This time I would like to take this miracle called Arpège from Lanvin to my breast. I would like to congratulate myself on my really good taste, without wanting to leave you with the impression of arrogance or running the risk of smelling better than Arpège von Lanvin because of self-praise. I would like to address in particular all Chanel No. 5 fanatics who roam the globe and are always eager to drown in beautiful fragrances, to be reborn, to merge again with this fragrance, the small and big heaviest of Coco Chanel. If we don't want to lie our way into our pockets, dear readers. Chanel No. 5 may be a divine fragrance and it is, absolutely, yet the price you would have to pay to get hold of it is too high. Try this scent instead, it resembles Chanel No. 5 more than you think. You're a fan of Aldehyden, you love Chanel No 5, then I have good news for all of you out there. As an absolute perfume fanatic I can assure you that you will not notice the difference to Chanel No 5. This fragrance costs about 30 Euro including packaging and shipping and contains 100 ml. For all penny pinchers, this fragrance is a must, for a small money apply and enjoy the fragrance Arpège by Lanvin. Thank you for your attention and I would be very happy about your answers to this, my comment... Mourise

Un arpeggio ben sintonizzato
I gave my wife a bottle of Arpège (1993) Eau de Parfum. It became one of my favourite scents from her extensive collection of perfumes, including some famous fragrances four or five times more expensive.
Longevity and sillage are far above average, and with Arpège she always outshines the other fragrances around her. The white flowers and aldehydes in the top and heart notes are simply magnificent, as are the amber and woody notes in the base.
She is often asked by her friends if she uses N°5 Parfum... and yes! Lanvin and Chanel perfumes are indeed similar. But Arpège is warmer, deeper and more complex. For me, it is an absolutely beautiful and enchanting fragrance that has the same class and excellent longevity as Number 5. Arpége is not a fragrance for young rebels, but my wife is in her mid-40s and seems much more sensual and elegant with this fragrance than with "whipped cream" or "candy fragrance" perfumes.
So, my recommendation goes to the husbands.... Save a few euros (the beautiful 100ml flask costs €30 ~ €35). If you love your wife, give her a black round bottle of Lanvin's Arpège when the occasion arises.
Good luck!

With all your faults, I still love you

It had to be you"

Discovery of Something Classic
Bought this "blind" after reading reviews and seeing that a bottle of 3.4oz was available for just $30. Some noted its similarity to Chanel No. 5 - I agree, except Arpege is smoother and softer and without the sting in the first spritz. I prefer Arpege! I have no idea what all the flowers are, but there is definitely the creaminess of vanilla.
