The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 1967 by Lancôme and crafted by perfumer Gérard Goupy, Climat is a Floral Green fragrance that embodies the elegance of its French heritage. The composition opens with bright aldehydes and lily-of-the-valley, creating an immediate sense of freshness and crispness. As it evolves, soft florals like jasmine and rose blend seamlessly into a warm musky base, anchored by sandalwood and vetiver. This harmonious balance between the floral and woody elements makes Climat a lasting classic that feels both familiar and fresh.
For a lingering effect, apply Climat to pulse points after moisturizing. The aldehydic top notes fade quickly, but the warm musky base will last throughout the day. It’s best enjoyed close to skin rather than diffused in a large space.
