by Lanvin
Jeanne Lanvin is a light, sweet, and feminine fruity floral perfume that feels like a soft spring breeze wrapped in a delicate pink ribbon. It opens with a bright burst of blackberry, lemon, and pear, giving a fresh, sour-tinged fruity character that feels almost edible. As it settles, the middle notes of freesia, peony, and raspberry unfold into a tender, powdery floral embrace, with a subtle rose presence that adds elegance. The drydown is soft and musky, anchored by sandalwood and amber, creating a gently creamy, soothing base that lingers like a whisper. The scent is quietly romantic, with a delicate, unobtrusive presence that feels more like a memory of a garden than a bold statement. It suits those who enjoy gentle, wearable scents—ideal for daytime wear, warm weather, and moments when you want a sweet, clean, and uplifting feeling without being overwhelming. While many find it charming and lovely, its performance is inconsistent, with moderate longevity and minimal sillage, often fading within a few hours or vanishing almost entirely on some skin types. Some note a faint similarity to cheap feminine hygiene products, which may be distracting for some. Others find the scent too juvenile, like a bubblegum toy candy, or overly sweet and synthetic, depending on personal threshold.
