Floral all-rounder for everyday use
Lanvin is one of those traditional fashion houses that ran out of steam decades ago. founded by Jeanne Lanvin in Paris in 1889, this fashion house has had many ups and downs. The last high point came in the millennium, when Alber Elbaz took over as creative director. Elbaz, known for his beautiful cocktail dresses, breathed new life into Lanvin and was able to increase not only sales, but also its popularity. Perhaps some of you remember his "legendary" collaboration with H&M? in 2010, he designed a series of cocktail dresses for the fashion chain, many of which were later sold on eBay for horrendous sums.
After Elbaz had to leave the company in 2015, Lanvin once again began a gradual decline. I would say that this decline can also be seen in the perfume prices and their availability in the drugstores we trust.
Eclat de Fleurs was so extremely cheap in online shops a few years ago that I bought the 100 ml version straight away, even though I didn't know the fragrance at all. The fragrance pyramid had convinced me and the price too, of course. But what does Lanvin's Eclat de Fleurs smell like?
It is a light, unobtrusive, floral fragrance. The sweetness is (thankfully) restrained here. Suitable for both spring and summer. Freesia, jasmine and rose create a beautiful floral bouquet, I can barely smell the pear in the top note. I perceive the flowers for about 3-4 hours until they give way to musk and sandalwood and the perfume gradually becomes skin-deep. Eclat de Fleur is totally suitable for everyday wear and therefore also for the office. The sillage is ok, so you won't get on anyone's nerves even if you spray too much. And here I come to the disadvantages of the fragrance: the fragrance composition is simple and therefore does not stand out from the trillions of perfumes. The durability is moderate and the sillage is ok. This also applies to the current prices.
However, if you are looking for a special perfume with a sophisticated fragrance composition and a long shelf life or sillage, you will not find it here.
CONCLUSION: You can't go wrong with Eclat de Fleurs, the perfume always works, just like the Chloe fragrances (unless you don't like flowers). If you are looking for a delicate, floral fragrance that is an all-rounder for everyday wear, this is the one for you.
